[edit] Original Research
Hi Nick, thanks for the great work on the John Day article and related things (see my rambling comments about the qualifier by his name on my talk page). I see you've listed yourself as a reference. Though I'm sure your info is quite accurate, at Wikipedia original research is frowned upon. You say you're writing a book, which I'm sure will be a fine source once published, but in the meantime, do you have any other sources you can cite? I think the links I added will back up most of the infomation, but if you have anything else that would be great. See WP:CITE for help with citations or ask me if you need help. Thanks and happy editing! P.S. Have you considered joining Wikipedia:WikiProject Oregon? Katr67 07:22, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
