A CBA question
Hello! I have been contributing on CBA topics recently and I have seen that you have, too. Since you created the Cedar Rapids Silver Bullets article, I have a question: in 1991 the team relocated and became the Tri-City Chinook. It.wiki and es.wiki consider the Tri-City Chinook the same franchise and they have created only one article for the whole timeline, while I see that here on en.wiki the Silver Bullets stop in 1991 and the Chinook are still red-linked. Should we consider the Chinook a different franchise, or is it just one franchise which changed the name and relocated? I think they are two separate entities, otherwise we should have only one article merging the history of the Buffalo Braves with the one of the LA Clippers, or the Seattle SuperSonics with the OKC Thunder... still, I am confused, how can we determine when a franchise becomes a different entity from its previous existence as a different team in a different city? Sorry for the seemingly futile question but I would like to understand whether I would be in the right if I were to create an article on the Tri-City Chinook as I plan to do with other CBA franchises. Thank you in advance! --Triple 8~enwiki (talk) 05:36, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your reply! By the way, I used a couple of notes I found in User:Halvorsen brian/CBA for the article on the Santa Barbara Islanders with a bit of rewording, I hope that you don't mind. --Triple 8~enwiki (talk) 11:37, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

Citing the Oregonian
Thanks for your work on articles like St. Johns, Portland, Oregon, Swan Island Municipal Airport, and James John. As someone who's interested in the history of the North Portland area, I really appreciate your effort crafting well researched articles on these topics. I recently went through our article on James John High School to link the cited Oregonian articles to scans on the University of Oregon's Historic Oregon Newspapers website. Based on that, I have a couple of suggestions that you may like to keep in mind when citing the paper in the future. First, make sure to specify whether you are citing the Sunday Oregonian or the Morning Oregonian, as the two editions have independent volume and issue numbers (compare the vol./issue numbers of this Sunday Oregonian to the next day's Morning Oregonian, for instance). This will make things easier for those who try to access the articles through databases that index the titles separately (such as Historic Oregon Newspapers: the site indexes the Morning Oregonian separately from the Sunday Oregonian rather than under a single Oregonian title). Second, when citing the Sunday Oregonian, make sure to include the section an article is found in as well as its page number. Unlike the regular edition, the Sunday Oregonian contains multiple sections, each of which is paginated separately; you can't tell what section a page is found in unless the section number is specified. Once again, thanks for the research you've done. The cites are still verifiable if you don't follow these suggestions—it'll just make things easier for readers who want to track down the sources :) Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 18:23, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
