message: This article has no references. Wikipedia requires not only references but also in-line citations. Therefore, I put an  tag on this article. Jolb 03:15, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Why no references? 

message: I'm rewriting and adding substantially to the article during the next few days using a few references I picked up from the library, starting with James Neal Primm's history of the city. I'll include stuff from a few other sources as I go along and try to incorporate and reference most of the info that's already in the article. poroubalous (talk) 23:05, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

text: Wow. You rock. This article was on my to-do list for a bazillion years. I'll leave some extra comments at the peer review after I finish marveling at its new state. /ƒETCHCOMMS/ 16:59, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  To Do Based on Peer Review 

message: A concern was brought at the GA review that the article lead might need references in a few places. Because I've been at this particular article for a while, I'm not really able to see what might be controversial as well as fresh eyes might be able to see. If you see a sentence or ideas that need citations in the lead, please note it here and we can bring consensus on it. I'm reticent to add citations to the lead as everything else in the article already is cited, and it would duplicate the citations. Thoughts? poroubalous (talk) 15:28, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe the 1st paragraph would be a good place for references, since this has to do with St. Louis's early history, including information on American Indians. Cmguy777 (talk) 20:21, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: No, in general the lede should not contain references, especially for a lengthy article like this one. The lede is meant as a summary of information already present in the rest of the article, and as long as the rest is cited, then the lede does not need refs. Per the WP:MOS, the lede should not include information not already in the rest of the article or refs for material cited later on. /ƒETCHCOMMS/ 01:53, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
