Proposed deletion: The article in not notable but it is referenced. I was trying to document as many HBC posts as possible. There was no other obvious place to put the information. If the separate article is deleted the information could be moved to a consolidated article on Rainy River trading posts or similar. Benjamin Trovato (talk) 03:51, 16 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

citation problem edit

On 06jan13 someone added 5 "citation-neededs". I therefore rechecked the article and made the following changes: 1)Losey's Oak Grove Resort changed to Oak Grove Camp according to their web site. 2)1830 corrected to Losey's 1830s and then replaced by a probably more accurate date in the Manitoba archives. 3) one footnote added. As for the 5 places marked "citation needed": 1) NWC competition:Losey, page 157, paragraphs 3 and 4 and every fur trade history that I have seen. 2) McKay on Rainy River:Losey, page 157, para 4. 3) 18 packs: Losey page 157, para 5. 4) 1797 pillage. This is not in Losey but can be found in the references under Hungry Hall. I therefore copied the reference. 5) Hungry Hall: Losey, page 158, paragraph 1.

Since there is now no evidence that citations are need I removed all the citation requests. If someone finds something in the article that is not in the references or contradicts another source, please leave a note here. Benjamin Trovato (talk) 02:30, 8 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
