Town vs. city: when?[edit]

I want to write this sentence: "In 18xx Mr. X went to the town—from 18xx the city—of Springfield ." But this article doesn't let me do that. One, it doesn't state what Springfield was before it was a city. I presume a town, but you don't state that. You seem to use word town only in passing; I don't think we even see, for example, the phrase "town of Springfield". Two, nor are we positively told when Springfield became a city. You seem to say only that in 1852 it was chartered as a city. That is not a linking verb. It conflates two facts—chartering versus becoming. In other words, for all we know, Springfield became a city sometime before 1852, but it wasn't officially chartered as one until then.

This is a long article, so if these facts are embedded somewhere & I missed them. it may be because I think you might want to segregate the political history of the city out from under the intervening and voluminous recitation of, for one thing, Springfield's firsts. They are deservedly famous, but I would say collect and move those into their own section, at the bottom.

That aside, a tremendous article w/ a ton of information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimlue (talk • contribs) 20:01, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
