Orphaned references in Timeline of Salem, Massachusetts, history

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 Timeline of Salem, Massachusetts, history'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⚡ 17:48, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Page layout

Any interest in revising the article layout? The current design is fine, but by comparison, the design of Timeline of the San Francisco Bay Area streamlines the layout of years with multiple events (centered headings, fewer bullet points, etc.). Following the San Francisco model, the layout of the Timeline of Boston was recently revised; see changes here. Thoughts? -- M2545 (talk) 09:17, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

The name of the poem is called...

• 1981
  • Chestnut Street District created. Containing 407 buildings, this is the city's largest district. This historic district is named after Samuel McIntire. Samuel McIntire had a house and workshop that was located 31 Summer Street.

"Chestnut Street District" sure doesn't sound like "Samuel McIntire". I've HTML-commented out the last two sentences till the problem is resolved. Thnidu (talk) 06:04, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

References can use filling out

There are a lot of references on this page that use the {{cite web}} template but supply only the URL and title. It would be helpful if editors could help out by adding, as applicable, author, website/publisher, and publication date parameters, at the least. Largoplazo (talk) 00:10, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
