[edit] Format references

We just can't have URLs...we need actual cites, such as author, title, location, date, and date accessed. {{cite web}} is good for this. hbdragon88 01:10, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reward for finders?

One thing I'm curious about, and which I'm sure would add interest to the article, is what, if anything, the Whelans got out of it. Without my having to research the Treasure Act 1996 or pursue any of the cited (or uncited) news articles, I'd like to know if they get any kind of reward at all, besides fifteen minutes of fame. --Eliyahu S Talk 11:16, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

I think I'm right that the value is divided between the landowner and the discoverer (unless the discoverer was on the land without permission, in which case they get nothing). Ming the Merciless 11:46, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
