Murphy,

I resolved the Woods/Baker conundrum on Sparks Hall at Chadron, which seemingly arose from the close similarity of the "common" or original names of Sparks Hall (Women's Dormitory) and Edna Works Hall (Women's Hall). The former, according to contemporary sources and the National Register nomination for the Chadron State buildings, is A. W. Woods work of 1913-1914. [I started the project a year earlier, based on ample "American Contractor" listings.] Edna Works Hall, which bears a name plaque "Women's Hall," is ascribed in the NRHP nomination to Baker in 1932.

I changed both the Baker and Woods pages to reflect the above, moving Sparks from a "Dated Project" to "Attributed" on the Baker page, with a note referring to the Woods page. We might even consider dropping Sparks entirely from Baker, unless we think the misattribution is "in the wild" and hence should be addressed.

I also moved the Sparks Hall photo link from Baker to Woods (at the "Projects" level), and updated the photo title, etc. I did not update that photo's "File Usage" line nor the metadata as I'll need some instruction on that and didn't want to mess that up without conferring with you.
