Minneapolis history

Hi SusanLesch: Though I entered the fray with the best of intentions, my knowledge deficits regarding the history of Minnesota and Minneapolis makes me a bad candidate for comprehensive and detailed critiques of the article. I appreciate that you engaged me, but I think it is better if I step aside. Sincerely, Oldsanfelipe (talk) 19:06, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

Oldsanfelipe, you came up with an excellent rewrite for the section on real estate covenants. Thank you very much for your help, as that topic was new to me. I hope sometime you will return and edit the article. For now, we corrected the flag that someone recently added. -SusanLesch (talk) 23:39, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
That suggested a finality that I did not intend. I just need to be judicious about what I edit. There was a point in the process with the history section when my ideas weren't helpful. I agree on the restrictive covenants: that was on point. I have also made some good edits in the transportation section. There were some good articles from the Star Tribune to work with and the subject matter was narrow in scope. It is possible that I will be able to make helpful edits in the future.

OK, sounds good. Thanks again. -SusanLesch (talk) 14:16, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
