Your submission at Articles for creation edit

 

I noticed your submission in Articles for creation, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/West Allis Public Library. Thanks! It will be reviewed by a volunteer soon.

Before it can be added to Wikipedia, your submission should have references. All articles on Wikipedia should have inline, numbered references after facts, showing the 'reliable source' (a newspaper, book, etc.) where the information can be checked, so that all information is verifiable.

Here's a video tutorial - hit play, then right-click for "full screen".

Here's an example of how to add references:

Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref>

He likes tea.<ref> Smith, John. "[http://foonews.com/Article42 Interview with Chzz]", Foo News, 1 April 2010. Retrieved 2011-05-22. </ref>

== References ==

{{reflist}}

That makes the references automatically display as small numbers[1] which will link to the details in the section titled == References == at the end. You can see that example in action here.

Please add references to your submission, which will be reviewed as soon as possible. See also, Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners. If you need any help, just put {{helpme}} at the end of this page, followed by a question or get into our live help chat chanel at #wikipedia-en-help connect.

May 2014 edit

  Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to ALCO RS-1 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.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • *Grand Trunk Western 1951 (last domestic RS-1 produced serial number 82356 at the [[Illinois Railway Museum]]

Re: Alco RS-1 page is for all RS-1s, not just the last one built for a U S railroad. The last RS-1 was built as National of Mexico #5663 in March 1960. --SSW9389 19:51, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

Look up Alco Serial #82357 the one immediately after the last GTW RS-1. It belongs to an RS-1 built in May of 1958. Or look up Alco Serial #s 82923-82927, 83619-83624, or 83680. They are all RS-1s built after GTW #1951. --SSW9389 21:57, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

Last RS-1s edit

The last RS-1s built were on two different Alco shop orders. Shop order #S3283 covered 15 units that were built by Alco between January 1957 and May 1958. The units covered were NdeM #5639-5651 and GTW #1950-1951. The GTW units have the distinction of being the last RS-1s built for a U. S. railroad and the first Phase III RS-1s. Alco Shop order #S3299 was for the last dozen RS-1s built by Alco for the NdeM as #5652-5663. Shop order #3299 was built between May 1958 and March 1960. NdeM #5663 was the last RS-1 built in March 1960 ending the RS-1s long 19 year production run. All data from Extra 2200 South. --SSW9389 20:24, 10 May 2014 (UTC)Acknowledge --SSW9389 01:01, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
