=== Consistency of article names ===
* As a matter of consistency, article names should not abbreviate "United States". Ergo: "[[Historian of the United States House of Representatives]]" is preferred over "[[Historian of the U.S. House of Representatives]]". ''See'' [[Manual of Style#National varieties of English]]. If you find "… U.S. …", try to [[Wikipedia:Merging|Merge and Redirect]] it to the corresponding "… United States …" article.
=== Delegations ===
*Each state has three articles on congressional delegation information:
**organized by congressional term are listed here: {{cl|United States congressional delegations by state}}
**alphabetical list of representatives entitled: List of United States Representatives from STATE
**alphabetical list of senators entitled: List of United States Senators from STATE

I am now proceeding to Ohio's 6th district early sessions and then Ohio's 4th district sessions of the years of constant redistricting (1878-1892). My initial focus is to create sketches for anyone who represented Montgomery County (OH). I am also working on the redistricting history of the 20th century in Ohio, having recently completed the 19th. I want to do district maps for each of the 19th century OH CDs too.
