 * S. Rich, you mentioned that I added a book reference with the intent of self promotion. How can that be since it is not my book?  I would understand your point if I were referencing my own book. How do I add book references that do not appear to you to be self promotion?  The book I referenced is the "bible" for Canada-US snowbirds; if this book is not legitimate, what would be?


 * I would like to add a subheading to Snowbird (People) titled something like Tax Implications for Canadian Snowbirds. How do I add a subheading? Dalewalters1958 (talk) 20:20, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Dale, I did not say you were promoting your book. Simply that the addition of the book, which is not specific to the Snowbirds as a group of people, is not proper. Does this help? – S. Rich (talk) 03:42, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

It doesn't apply for US snowbirds, but for Canadian snowbirds it is exactly on point.Dalewalters1958 (talk) 16:23, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, the book fails as a reference because of WP:NOTHOWTO. That is, the book seeks to give advice to the Canadians. And the link to the book fails because of WP:ELNO.  – S. Rich (talk) 16:43, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
