Help with this
I am trying to add some interesting historical facts about Lake County and the towns within it. I currently am a researcher at the Lakeport Museum, and since I am new to wikipedia, I figured this would be a good place to start contributing. The formatting of the article needs a good amount of work, and I will get the source information completed this week. I would love to see any contributions form folks who have information I do not have at my disposal!
- A good place to do this can involve a Yahoo or Google search. Usually in the first three pages of 30 hits you should be able to find three good sources. Typically you want a city website (official), neutral POV articles about your search topic and perhaps local landmarks that are on state website pages.
- My search found only three (one using Lakeport, CA; and two using Yahoo's suggested search city of Lakeport, CA):
- Lakeport, CA official website - take a look at the Visitors tab to find History and FAQ.
- Lakeport Regional Chamber of Commerce - some Chamber of Comerce sites will be flowery because they want to attract business and visitors. Look for facts that match up with other sources.
- School Accountability Report Card Reported for School Year 2004-05 - good school data.
Keep in mind the Wikipedia:Trifecta article when you put together what your sources are telling you. If you click and read the links in that article on the Trifecta, you will be off to a good start. Ronbo76 03:51, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
