The inline references (called "Notes" in this article) should make use of the <ref name='Elkins and McKitrick'>, <ref name='Elkins and McKitrick'/> and {{rp 999}} style and syntax for citations, to avoid the repeated author names shown here., but I am not keen on this tedious job myself, having just done it elsewhere. -- DThomsen8 ( talk) 00:37, 9 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Should this wikipedia page also have an infobox with information of the nation at the time, much like how Confederation Period has an infobox, or should it be kept as is? Ansoc Lad ( talk) 01:31, 15 July 2022 (UTC) reply
