thanks for the material on the MV Tarahne but it would be much better if you'd just start the MV Tarahne article and place most of the information there especially the lengthy footnote, which isn't really appropriate for a list page. I suggest you use one of the other steamboat articles in th list as a model/template and post a notice of its creation at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ships so that more experienced editors can help clean it up and make sure it's properly categorized etc. The article would also allow for images of the Tarahne which can't be on the list or the Yukon steamboats template (those in BC Archives are public domain, though from before 1959 anyway; the license tag to use is {{pd-Canada50}} I think....if you have any questions or need assistance, please just ask me, or ask at WikiProject Ships.Skookum1 (talk) 14:12, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically, you're trying to force references into the Ulster and Delaware Railroad‎ article. That's not how it's done. At the place where the work is used in the article, you say <ref>Kaaterskill RR ledgers and records, NYC RR Records, Syracuse U. Library</ref>. Then you get a little number which is a link into the References section, and it has a backlink into the body of the article from where the reference was made. There's more, but you can start from there. RussNelson (talk) 03:15, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Buffalo Robert, i noticed your edits to the

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of steamboats on the Yukon River, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Whitefish (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to List of steamboats on the Yukon River may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Hello, I'm Nikkimaria. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of List of White Pass and Yukon Route locomotives and cars. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet the external links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should be internal Wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
