Orphaned references in Pontiac's War

[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Pontiac's War's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 11:41, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not a fan of hidden navigational templates in the lead, and wonder if it could be unhidden and moved to somewhere with the text.

Marking Satisfactory at URFA/2020 and unwatching; ping me if needed! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:44, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed the ref errors. The collapsed nav template in the lede I believe is standard MilHist practice. thanks! Kevin1776 (talk) 21:58, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The MILHIST standard is generally to have the campaignbox collapse at the top of the article. Hog Farm Talk 02:37, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
