Wondering how to edit this U.S. County Entry?
The
WikiProject U.S. Counties standards might help.
Some helpful information on U.S. county lists can be found at WP:COUNTYLISTS. Tompw ( talk) ( review) 16:32, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
Where are the FIPS codes for the tribes in Wisconsin? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.189.41.11 ( talk) 15:19, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
OK, we will need to get a few things done, then a peer revirew, a copy edit and BAM, off to FL nomination. Here is what we would need. NOTE: This is based on the WV FL which just passed over a week ago.

Whoah, this I did not know. SO, I have inserted a table for the renamed county and what happened to it Coal town guy ( talk) 02:27, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
OK OK Wisconsonites, out there, I have found 2 (two) counties that have been renamed. Thats swell. Do we know, yes or no, if there are any more extinct counties, former counties etc etc?? IF there are, let us know as this is going to have a try out at the FL. AND it would be MONUMENTALLY disappointing if at the FL review, someone were to say, OMG, you forgot about.........I am 100% certain that out there in WIKI ether land, there must be a spirit that does not bend nor break, concerning Wisconsin history...PLEASE let us know... Coal town guy ( talk) 16:22, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
OK, I have counted 24 counties with Unclained Territory as their source. Crawford, Dane Calumet ect etc etc. Do we have a singlwe publuished source that would say, OH, and by the way, here is where we got the land. Tribe x, a gift, etc etc etc?? Good news, our clickable map is now complete. Choose a county in the state, click that on the map, and you will be taken to that county page Coal town guy ( talk) 01:43, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
Hey All- I saw the external link added which is very cool. Why not add this to the See Also? Otherwise, the thing to keep in mind is that County FL as a whole stand really firm on being consistant. I have reviewed every FL for US counties, none that are a FL have an external link section that I can recall. I will look again to be 100%. GREAT work and data here. NOTE, when we use any link, we have to cite it per the format used in the list thus far. Again, being consistant is the key Coal town guy ( talk) 14:42, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
Hi-I came across an article that Louise Phelps Kellogg wrote: 'Organization, Boundaries and Names of Wisconsin Counties.' It was published in the Proceedings of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin At Its Annual Meeting, 1910, pg. 184. The nice thing about this article is that it covers the 71 counties in existence in 1910. The 72nd and final county Menominee County, Wisconsin was not created until 1961 and it would be easy to find information on that. If someone who knows about citation templates, etc, and is willing to help put this together that would be great! Many thanks- RFD ( talk) 17:07, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
OKey Dokey- I took a look at This. RFD was kind enough to supply the title, and its a free Google book. BUT, the founding dates in this book differ from the current list. Do we have a agreement that this should be the source for founding dates and formation history? It looks to be as primary as one can get Coal town guy ( talk) 18:16, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
First of all your "definition" goes way beyond anything on the web page to which you linked. What the page actually says is "Primary sources are works created at the time of an event, or by a person who directly experienced an event." Kellogg was not around at the time many of the counties were formed and did not directly experience them. Second, as you have already stated elsewhere on this page, you know little about Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Historical Society is simultaneously a private organization and a state-funded organization. As a government-funded agency, it is responsible for the archiving of official state documents and other historical artifacts. As a private agency, it operates museums, publishes books and magazines, and sponsors member events. Books that the society publishes are not official government documents. Or perhaps you think that Bottoms Up: A Toast to Wisconsin’s Historic Bars & Breweries or Haunted Wisconsin are official government documents and that a No Beer No Work Pin is official government jewelry. -- Mesconsing ( talk) 03:22, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
Hey all- GREAT job on the refs, However, it is critical that we agree on refs as far as a courtesy link. The courtesy link allows a user to have the ISBN and search for a copy or version of the book. This was a deal on WV FL. The WV fl has courtesy links for the refs now, and they should remain. ALWAYS keep in mind, a cvourtesy link will NOT take you to Amazon etc etc, it merely tells a user where they can get a copy of the said book. I am very sorry if I did not communicate this earlier. It was a real blast discovering this during the FL review, thought I would save lots of hassle up front. Coal town guy ( talk) 21:34, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
As it is being pointed out that a courtesy link with an ISBN for books before 1970 would be "preferences hoisted upon me" and also since, my recent FL experience does not slice it, "thats what we call a good article here", I am at this time, totally, UNinvolved in this process.
I do not know squat about WI history. I am sorry to have taken up your time, your effort, I am sorry. Thank you for teaching me about Wisconsin. It appears to be a lovely state. Thanks again to all of you Coal town guy ( talk) 01:13, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

I click on a county and get little blue squiggles that intersect and are only in the vague position of the county. Not sure what the problem there is. Kingofthedead ( talk) 08:56, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
Short list of improvements to make this a featured list (FL):
