Talk:Anthony Burns

Rocky Mount, VA vs. Rocky Mount, NC

Are we sure David McDaniel was from Rocky Mount, NC? I see a Charles F. Suttle buried in Rocky Mount, VA which is what made me question this. I'll do some more research and see if I can confirm or if an update is needed. -kim. (talk) 19:12, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

Footnotes need work

The 50 footnotes could be combined into about 10. Each page doesn't get a new entry. But I'm a little tired to use my time cleaning it up. Today. deisenbe (talk) 20:35, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

I switched the footnotes to the {{sfn}} format. There's no need to continue to repeat the full citation for each page. I also consolidated the former Bibliography and the Further reading sections - and alphabetized the list.

I agree with reverting the edit that provided links for each page number. It adds a lot of unnecessary bulk to the article.

Regarding combining footnotes so that each page doesn't need its own footnote - My vote is Oppose. It would make it unnecessarily harder to find the right page in the source document.–CaroleHenson (talk) 01:01, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
