Lead

"It is located in Dalton, on a site where paper been manufactured since the early 19th century." - had been manufactured.
- Well, it should be has, since it is presumably still taking place; changed appropriately. Magic♪piano 00:42, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

History

In addition to running Crane & Co. during the late 19th century, Murray Crane served as Governor of Massachusetts and in the United States Senate, and played an influential role in Republican Party politics. Remove and between Mass. and in.
- I've done some rewording here, but I think both "and"s are necessary: the first for the compound object of "served", the second for separating the verb clauses of "served" and "played". Magic♪piano 00:42, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Description

"It is three window bays wide and seven long, featuring stepped gable ends and a steep slate roof. " -citation needed
- This is on page 2 of the NHL nomination (the source that the paragraph is cited to). I've removed "steep" because the nomination uses "steeped" when it means "stepped", referring to the gable ends. Magic♪piano 00:42, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Second paragraph begin it as In 1930 the northern facade. Done Magic♪piano 00:42, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
"Included in the displays" you mean Displays include. Could use more info on displays if the info exists.
- Reworded; I've not seen much of significance beyond what's already there on the display contents. Magic♪piano 00:42, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
"warmer months". What months are these and how much is the charge during the "colder months"? Also in the lead you need to indicate that it isn't free all year round.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 12:31, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I've changed this to show that the museum is only open during specified months. Magic♪piano 00:42, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking the time to review this; let me know if there are more issues. Magic♪piano 00:42, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
