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)[reply]
