Margaret May Fish McWade
editHi, Tricewilson48. I've mad an edit to your draft on Margaret May Fish McWade. It looks like the content is mostly ready to go, but I think the references need to be cleaned up a bit. You can (of course) use MLA format on wikipedia, but the urls you've provided for the web address part of the MLA citation are almost all to the root of a large site (e.g. archives.com, etc.), not to the individual resource. In most cases these are scanned newspapers and the like, so the importance of the URL stems from the ability of a reader to quickly look at an archvied copy. Offering as a link just the site itself is not as helpful and can clutter references for readers looking to merely peruse the article. I don't want to remove the links themselves (as I'm not sure if you have more direct links available), but I do think they should be removed or updated. Please let me know if you need any help with this. Thanks. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:43, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
