Citation of Patents

I don't know why the wikipedia citation think creates a link to a site that doesn't have info on the patents. I found the patentes easily with Google Patent Search. See http://www.google.com/patents?id=1EVnAAAAEBAJ&dq=H.+Newhouse,+Patent+No.+189,643 and http://www.google.com/patents?id=sYxKAAAAEBAJ&dq=JOHN+H.+HAGERTY,+Patent+No.+398779. Can anyone help me figure out the proper way to cite these so that it will link to a source that actually contains the info? Brentonboy (talk) 19:31, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
