USS Sumter work
I've noticed that most of the text from USS Sumter (APA-52) comes from the Geocities. Wikipedia needs permission to have this text other wise it is plagerism. There are two ways around this. New text needs to be writen up using the Geocities site as a reference, or permisson needs to be granted from the site and noted in the references section on the USS Sumpter. While you are working on that, it would be great to get permission to use one of the photos for the Sumpter article.
