[edit] Your edit to Fort McRee -- Thank you!
Thanks for your huge edit to the Fort McRee article. It added a lot of useful information. :) Considering the level of detail, it looks like that information came from a book or something like that -- would it be possible for you to add citations for your source so we can improve the article's references? • WarpFlyght (talk • contribs) 13:38, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, I overlooked the reference you did add in the lede. Is that the same source for the other sections you added? • WarpFlyght (talk • contribs) 13:39, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- Yep, the one book referenced is where it all came from. I wasn't really sure how to cite a source like that so I just put it at the lead. Reverendlinux 20:10, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, cool. I altered the reference a bit, gave it a name, and cited -- well, every paragraph. :P The reflist looks a bit comical now with 27 references to the same source, but c'est la vie. Anyway, thanks again for your contribution -- you really improved the article! • WarpFlyght (talk • contribs) 21:39, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for doing the tedious stuff. And for the positive review. I added one reference from the author(s) prior to me; that'll balance it out a little. :-)Reverendlinux 21:50, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
