Talk:Robert E. Lee (FCC)

message: In his book, Blacklisted by History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and His Fight Against America's Enemies, M. Stanton Evans shows a first page (p. 247) from the "Lee List" (which discusses and from which he cites extensively):  however, his book does not provide either the entire list (document), nor a clear source (simply the "Walter Judd papers" at the bottom of page 247), nor a bibliographic reference that documents where that list is available (because, in fact, the book contains no bibliography for more than 600 pages of text and 20 pages of end notes).  Under end note 5 for Chapter 20 (pages 617-618), Evans states, "There are many copies of the Lee list extant, mostly in mimeogrpah form as circulated in the halls of Congress (all identical as to text, but with different ancillary data). The version most accessible to researchers, though without name keys and somewhat buried in a voluminous record is in the appendix of the Tydings hearings, pp. 1745 et seq."
  Has anyone obtained a complete copy–and could they please create a new "Lee List" entry on Wikipedia? --Aboudaqn (talk) 19:45, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Robert L. Burns

message: The reference section previously contained notes. Notes are not references and belong in a separate section per MOS. (BTW the note is not sourced, in what publication did the Kansas State Library make the 2011 statement?) There were extra brackets in the references. The standard for articles is capitalization of first word. Only the article title itself should be linked. The links for most of the references are based on the user being a logged in library card holder at LAPL or logging in upon clicking the link. The subscription parameter should be added and set to yes and the via parameter should be added and set to "Proquest at the Los Angeles Public Library". Alternately I was going to try to find working direct links. - - MrBill3 (talk) 01:24, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

You made your edit while I was halfway through linking the short and long citations so I did not see your edit until it clashed with my changes.

If you don't like it then revert as I will do no more on this article. -- PBS (talk) 22:57, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I find that giving the title of the work instead of the year is more helpful to the non-specialist reader - it's also a form of citation that's used enough in history to be familiar to the specialist also. It's really not good form to go in and change the form of citations to something you prefer without discussion - especially on an article you've not been much involved with. Changing to using the sfn template is a change in citation form and discouraged - you should know this by now. Yes, I will be changing it back - it's a perfectly valid way to format citations. Ealdgyth - Talk 23:30, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Giving a link between short citation and long citation is more useful for everyone as one click take the reader to the full citation. The method you are using makes it more difficult to find the long citation. "Changing to using the sfn template is a change in citation form and discouraged", that is a very narrow interpretation of WP:CITEVAR and there is no evidence that it is the consensus view.  -- PBS (talk) 23:48, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  More than one wife? 

message: Hi. I've just completed the equivalent article in the French Wikipedia, with sources, which has enabled me to find there are errors or omissions in the English version. Robert Rex died on December 13th, not December 12th. He had a son, Robert Rex Junior, who was a minister in his successive governments from 1978 to 1990. His wife Patricia Rex was also an MP in his parliamentary majority. He does not appear to have been a member of the Niue People's Party; indeed, the party stood against him in the 1990 Niuean general election. And he seems to have been born in Alofi, not in Avatele. (His parents may have grown in up Avatele, but presumably his mother travelled to the capital to give birth?) Anyway, it's all in the French version of the article, with sources.
