Talk:Fort Dick, California

[Untitled]

PLEASE HELP ORGANIZE ROUGH DRAFT OF FORT DICK, CALIFORNIA wikipedia article! All constructive & factual help is greatly appreciated.

ROUGH DRAFT NOTICE: I find myself in a situation where I need to move from my home in the next 14 days. I felt it was imperative that I put down whatever I had into the article as a ROUGH DRAFT. THIS IS IN NO WAY MEANT TO BE THE PROPER LAYOUT, SYNTAX, LOGIC FLOW, CATEGORIZATION OF DETAILS, ETC ETC. As of this exact moment, I live 931 miles from Fort Dick. It is highly impractical for me to spend my days researching the city from such a distance. Due to its extremely small size, and the encroachment of crescent city on her borders, Fort Dick can be very difficult to research on the internet. Most of what i find is in very small fragments.

In order to preserve the rich historical heritage of the small city of Fort Dick, California, I felt it was necessary to put the information I had gathered in a single location. I also needed to address the confusion between the names Fort Dick and Fort Dix. I've created landing pages, rather than redirect pages where the user can select which article they are searching for.

If anyone wishes to take all of the data I have entered, and organize it in a proper fashion, I would welcome the effort. I will eventually get to it, but I am concerned about how distracting the chaos might be in the mean time.

I've made every effort to make statements factual, and not conjecture. I've made every effort to provide quotations and documentation to where I obtained things. If you have any questions at all, please contact me via email at run2zion@gmail.com and I will try to answer you as quickly as possible. please put the words "FORT DICK WIKI ARTICLE" in the subject so I don't get it confused with the hundreds of spam messages I receive daily.

Started Cleanup

This is going to be a challenge to clean this up. I have found the book The War of the Rebellion George M. Hanson, Superintendent of Indian Affairs, but in reading it [1] I do not find the letter mentioned dated July 2, 1862 to Brigadier General George Wright, the Union Commander of the Department of the Pacific. I find many reports by General Wright, but I can't find anything from Fort Dick - Del Norte County (now, it was Humboldt District then), so far. So all I did to this point was clean up the history of how the town got named, and download the ebook to plow through later. Anyone else wishing to take a shot at this, please help out!
