What do you think of a "succession box" as a way to mark the different businesses that have occupied a given building or address? It may be a simpler way than creating an article for each address with lots of past tenants (though we can still do that when appropriate). For example, [[Trader Jon's]] might have the following:
 +
{{start box}}
 +
{{succession box|before=[[Birgar Testman]]'s ship chandlery|title=[[Trader Jon's building|511 South Palafox Street]]|years=[[1953]]-[[2003]]|after=[[Big Sexy Food]]}}
 +
{{end box}}
 +
(Not the best choice as there were other tenants between Testman's chandlery and Trader Jon's, but you get the idea.) --[[User:Admin|Admin]] 15:02, 17 October 2007 (CDT)

Welcome to the Community Portal. Currently this is a basic forum to discuss general issues relating to Pensapedia.

Civil service worker information

I want to gauge opinion on including certain information in the articles of civil servants, such as their addresses/telephone numbers (at least in the case of City Council/County Commission and similar) and salaries... What are some thoughts? dcosson ··· talk 11:25, 19 August 2007 (CDT)

I think salaries are fair game. Home addresses and phone numbers are a little more iffy... I know that's what some Councilmembers, etc. have on their City website pages, but I think a link to those pages would be sufficient. --Admin 12:38, 19 August 2007 (CDT)

Location succession box

What do you think of a "succession box" as a way to mark the different businesses that have occupied a given building or address? It may be a simpler way than creating an article for each address with lots of past tenants (though we can still do that when appropriate). For example, Trader Jon's might have the following:

Preceded by:
Birgar Testman's ship chandlery
511 South Palafox Street
1953-2003
Succeeded by:
Big Sexy Food

(Not the best choice as there were other tenants between Testman's chandlery and Trader Jon's, but you get the idea.) --Admin 15:02, 17 October 2007 (CDT)
