It looks to me like this article is 100% copied and pasted from the websites listed on the page. And most of the information appears to simply be when things were built or opened. Bolt Vanderhuge 06:12, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

  • It's a seed page to get things started. I'll be cleaning it up in the coming weeks.Madcoverboy 13:57, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
    • No significant conversion from copy-and-paste time line format to referenced paragraphs appears to have been made, so I would recommended the pertinent bits of this page be moved to the main NU article or this article should be rewritten altogether. - AKeen 16:12, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
      • "Paragraphization" is under way. I'm going to bed tonight, but this will be taken care of by the "end of business" tomorrow. :) I have already removed the previous "expand", "copy and paste", and "merge" templates and replaced them with "under construction."

        • Sounds good. Look forward to reading it. - AKeen 21:47, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
