Thanks for the updates to that article. Are your sources the same as the ones already cited? If you're interested in Oregon stuff, be sure to join WikiProject Oregon. Happy editing! Katr67 00:09, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If by "not certain this is the way to do this" you mean responding on my talk page, yes, that's exactly it. Just remember to sign your posts with 4 tildes (~~~~) to give your post a link to your username and a datestamp. Your research sounds like fun. I'm about to start volunteering at Mission Mill Museum, another NRHP site, so I'm hoping to update that article when I get time (I was just issued a 115-page manual, so there's a lot of material there!). If you have any print sources for your material, be sure to add the citations to the article. I can help with the formatting if you like. Of course if you're updating the End of the Oregon Trail site, then that will still make a fine reference. I also belong to Wikipedia:WikiProject National Register of Historic Places. If you look at List of Registered Historic Places in Oregon, you will see that there are several hundred articles that need to be written, so any redirects we can make are very helpful. I just made Philip Foster Farm link to the Philip Foster article for now. Do you think there is enough on the farm to merit a separate article? Otherwise it should definitely have a section in the Foster article. If you'd like to add the material, take a look around the WikiProject and the Oregon NRHP list for formatting, etc. and let me know if I can help. Thanks again!

(edit conflict) Yes—thanks indeed. I'm uncharacteristically interested in Philip Foster and Sam Barlow. Do you have information which links SE Foster Road with him? Welcome! — EncMstr 02:16, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
