Italicized ship names in title of article
I know that there's a way to italicize the name of an article, when the whole thing is italicized, like a book or a ship. In this case, the ship names, Hester and Luther Little, should be italicized, but "and" should not be! Can anyone help accomplish the proper result?

Abandonment
I want to be clear that there is no evidence from the sources I have gone through that Frank Winter ever intentionally abandoned his ships. Here are what the sources have to say:


 * "Maine at 200: An Anecdotal History Celebrating Two Centuries of Statehood" - no mention of abandonment.
 * "Titanic Nautical Society & Resource Center." - does not give a cause or timeline for abandonment
 * "Wiscasset Newspaper" - no mention of abandonment.
 * "HazeGray" - suggests the schooners were abandoned after Winter's death.
 * "Portland Press Herald" - suggests the schooners were abandoned after Winter's death.
 * "Maine Maritime Museum" - no mention of abandonment.

The sources state Winter purchased the ships in 1932, his railroad business went defunct in 1934, and he died in 1936. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 02:19, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
