Gordonsville[edit]

Gordonsville, Virginia says that town is in Orange County, Virginia. -- Beland 16:13, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Lack of inline citations for "History" section[edit]

About 2/3 of the history section is taken from http://louisatown.org/co-hist.htm, and the remainder is adapted (no longer matches the source), and either requires a reliable source, or should be removed. Tedickey (talk) 21:19, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Do you have some reason to doubt the official history as authoritative? --Zeamays (talk) 22:05, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Your edits diverge from the statements in the url, which is (read it) an extract from another work. The "official" (sic) history for example doesn't refer to a secular commune. Tedickey (talk) 23:31, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Unsourced statements from History section[edit]

A very quick/partial list of items from the history section not corresponding to the given source:

  • use of "secular" for commune (not found in source).
  • unqualified use of "oldest" (source qualifies it by saying "still in existence")
  • sentence referring to "retirees" (no part of that appears in source)
  • contextually puzzling comment about Lake Anna (source does refer to it as a side effect of building the power station, what's left out of both is that its primary purpose is cooling the station - linked topic does that). In the current context, it makes Dominion sound as if it developed the lake for your entertainment.
  • rewrite of the paragraph regarding Trevilians states that there were "several significant cavalry actions" (not found in source)
  • comment about Thomas Johnson (not found in source)
  • Louisa vs Louise (text and source differ)
  • comment about when Patrick Henry lived there does not agree with source
