Talk:Robert H. Williams

1) section - "Life" ----- "Santa Anna, Texas" is in Central Texas. "Santa Ana, Texas" does not come up in a quick Google search. Either way, the source I had listed for Robert H. Williams says he was from "West Texas". That footnote has been removed.

2) section - "Works" ----- re: "Know Your Enemy: Counter-Intelligence Information" http:// dc301 dot 4shared dot com/doc/zlAZzGKY/preview dot html is a very suspicious link. Anybody coming to this page and seeing that url in the code behind that link would probably use that as a talking point to denigrate the entire article. It makes the website look bad.

Either way, all it is of is a single image of a very low res image of the title page to "Know Your Enemy". I had replaced it with a link from archive.org that was the text of the book.

3) section - References: ----- It's spelled "Arnold Forster" according to an ADL webpage I just viewed. I had it corrected for footnote 4. But it's been changed back to the wrong spelling.

4) section - References: ----- re: footnote 4

The book is called "Cross-Currents" according to the printed page: https://archive.org/details/crosscurrentsina0000unse/page/n3/mode/2up

The cover of the book uses: "CROSS-CURRENTS"

"Cross-currents" is wrong capitalization.

5) "(Source always as reference! Pictures must never reach under the reference line.)" -----

What does that mean? You keep saying that and keep adding back the errors I have corrected. Does that mean I can't footnote the photos I have added to the pages. I'm footnoting my sources, with citations and giving references. The "reference line" is where the footnotes go right? And I've been making the footnotes. I'm not going to hide the URL behind code. I'm going to list the URL on the page just like an academic book would. This is the way I was taught in school, so the page in question can be printed out on paper and used as a reference. Either way, when I post a photo or a visual aid, I'm going to source it with a footnote just as I would for an academic paper or presentation.

Pictures added like this must be avoided. They should never extend below the reference barrier. If there are two many pictures, then a gallery must be added. Here one of hundreds of examples. --Crusader (talk) 15:48, 23 February 2025 (UTC)
Yes, correct is Forster and "Cross-Currents" ... this was a mistake by NatAll75 in 2016. --Crusader (talk) 15:48, 23 February 2025 (UTC)
