Talk:Battle of Milliken's Bend

New editor
I'm a newbie, just learning my way around. Just wanted to let folks know in case I do something wrong. I feel like I'm learning quickly, though. CWology (talk) 18:30, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

Added a couple of cites to the OR's - they're not exactly pretty looking. Would appreciate if someone can instruct me and/or clean up the cite formats. The "Book" template for source citations does not lend itself very well to this source. Thanks. CWology (talk) 01:51, 9 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Well, you may want to take a look at its parameters. For example, "publisher" seems more appropriate for the "War Dept." entry than "last" - that's meant for the author's last name. Better for this purpose, however, is cite encyclopedia - that's meant for works published in multiple volumes, just like the Official Records. (By the way, "OR" usually has a completely different meaning on Wikipedia.) I've changed the template; thanks for finding some references in the first place! Huon (talk) 03:39, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
