Incomplete Destubbing
Pages partially destubbed, roughly in reverse chronological order with what I think is needed to finish the destubbing.
 * The Progressive Christian - researching at a research library for sources about the prior title of Zion's Herald
 * Maximus of Jerusalem - paper & foreign language sources, especially the original church historians
 * Christian Classics Ethereal Library - need to look for print journal articles from the early 1990s and later
 * Icerya purchasi - needs a search, not just following links
 * Christian Topography - need to look for 20th century sources on the text, find the original quotes by Gibbons and Beazley
 * Allen Temple AME Church (Cincinnati, Ohio) - need to use the church's own website, plus someone should follow up on the biographies of print sources listed on the talk page
 * Offset loan (finance) - search academic/professional literature, not just popular press
 * Warner Sallman - should be expanded from the academic work on him, more online data would be available to someone with JSTOR/Muse/Questia access
 * Sarah Hall Boardman - needs research
 * Lahu Christian churches - It needs globalization and generally more effort using yet to be found sources. I intend further effort.
 * Backyard Wildlife Habitat - It needs more research, probably library based.
 * ProgressSoft - Needs attention by an Arabic speaking editor as I suspect most sources are in Arabic.
 * Fountain Trust - It needs library reasearch by a UK based editor.
 * Qualified Institutional Buyer - It needs globalization beyond India and the U.S.

Other Significant Contributions

 * After receiving (I had a subscription) an issue of Christian History & Biography focused on Adoniram Judson I got inspired to improve his article and articles on other topics covered in the magazine. If you receive a reliable source yourself, use it!  But remember to abide by  fair use restrictions.
 * I went through all rivers in List of Maine rivers with an article and added links to the U.S. National Geological Service's real time flow data for river flow. This was inspired by my edits to Aroostook River above, which was inspired by SuggestBot.
