I am fairly new to wikipedia. I need some help with the following: 1) Title at the top of the page needs formating... help! 2) Link from Theodore H. Rowell page does not work... oops! 3) Help in footnoting - I feel that much of the information in the article should be footnoted. Is this so, or is just having the sources at the end of the article ok? Thanks, BillyblueskyBillybluesky 14:35, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have taken care of the article title by moving the article (see the message on your user talk page) and it seems like the link on Theodore H. Rowell page is working fine. Hopefully someone else can assist you with the footnoting, as that isn't my specialty :-). Take care, Nick—^Contact/_Contribs 03:23, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I know more about footnotes than formatting. Footnotes add to credibility. If I'm looking at information, I want to know what the source is, esp. with so much conflicting versions of stuff on the 'net. However, I have found that many sources will have the same information. For example, the Beaver Dam Citizen probably took the information for that article from The History of Beaver Dam and the other source given. Interesting article.Manrei 03:50, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the the help and the comments. Regards, BillyblueskyBillybluesky 01:36, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
