similarly named listings in 1978 and 2019, where are these?[edit]

Hi User:Magicpiano, I noticed there was already an article for Magnolia Company Filling Station in List of historic filling stations, which was NRHP-listed in 1978. As opposed to this listing of Magnolia Petroleum Company Filling Station in 2019. One or both are located in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Maybe one is located in Fayette, Arkansas (but that is a redlink)? One is in Cleveland County, one is in Washington County.

Currently both articles link to Fayetteville, Arkansas. This involves National Register of Historic Places listings in Cleveland County, Arkansas and National Register of Historic Places in Washington County, Arkansas.

I don't have it sorted out yet. --Doncram (talk) 20:58, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

All would be clear if you read the linked sources for both stations. Magic♪piano 21:04, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
(ec) Okay, sure I must have something wrong. Hmm, this one is in Kingsland, Arkansas, which is in Cleveland County, Arkansas, nowhere near Washington County, Arkansas. I guess I must have gotten confused when trying to link from one to the other. I thought both articles linked to Fayetteville, Arkansas in Washington County, and I was thinking maybe there are two Fayettevilles. Anyhow, the articles should link to each other, although what i put in currently needs fixing, i am sure. --Doncram (talk) 21:10, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, i was just wrong, got my wires crossed. Fixed now, thank you for your attention and your edit in one or the other. I was pretty sure there was something that had to be fixed, else i would not have pinged you towards sorting it out, but it was just my error. By the way the 1978-listed one was then believed to the only surviving filling station built by the Magnolia Company. In this 2019-listed one's NRHP document, I am looking for mention that it was built by the company, but not finding that, so I am not updating the 1978 one's article about that yet. This doc mentions another nearly identical building in town (Kingsland i guess), also with elements of Tudor architecture. I wonder if those were two houses, one which came to be used as a filling station later, or whether those were both built by/for the Magnolia company. --Doncram (talk) 21:21, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
NO, actually, now I see this article DID say it was in Fayetteville, and did link to that town in Washington County, far away, in its first version. So i wasn't wrong to be thinking there was an error somehow. I think you were chastising me above, seems a bit unfair. :( Okay also about northeast vs. northwest, whatever. Your edit summaries seem to have some harshness, unnecessarily, IMHO. When you are wrong it is a "typo" but when I make an error it is "ignorance"? --Doncram (talk) 21:33, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
