Notes

  • I substituted the last sentence of "Death rates" for the first sentence. Dr. Jensen, I want to be clear that I don't think I'm in any way qualified to critique your calls on what's important, but I'm not sure of the best way to deal with our style guidelines while trying to say "a lot of historians have noted" here ... Is there anything specific you'd like to say about the attention that's been focused on the death rates? - Dank (push to talk) 23:46, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Okay, done my bit, I think the non-tabular text would benefit from a peer review. - Dank (push to talk) 00:28, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
hey thanks! Rjensen (talk) 00:40, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have a citation to add to the table in the article, under Elmira Prison Camp, it lists citation needed, but I am not sure how to edit that box. Can someone talk me thru it, or I will be happy to give the info and let someone else add it. Thanks!--galndixie (talk) 16:53, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Was it published on paper or is it a website? Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 18:14, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's a book. I just don't know how to list it in the box, or how to get rid of the 'need citation' thing.

Fill in the author, title, year of publication, and pages here:

<ref>{{cite book|author= |title= |year=2002 |publisher= |pages=}}</ref>

and replace {{citation needed|date=May 2016}}

with it. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 18:41, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

<ref>{{cite book|author=Horigan, Michael |title=Elmira:Death Camp of the North |year=2002 |publisher=Stackpole Books |pages=dust jacket, 179-180}}</ref>

and replace {{citation needed|date=May 2016}} --galndixie (talk) 20:58, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Bubba, but as you can tell, sorry, I'm still learning wiki. I got the info in there, but couldn't get rid of the 'citation needed'. --galndixie (talk) 21:05, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Map of American Civil War Prisons

Map
American Civil War Prison Camps - Union Confederate
  • Camp Chase — Columbus, Ohio Established in May 1861 and closed in 1865. The camp's original capacity was for 4,000 men, but at times more than 7,000 prisoners were accommodated. The capacity was increased to 7,000, but towards the end of the war up to 10,000 men were crammed into the facility.
  • Elmira Prison — Elmira,New York Originally established as Camp Rathbun, a training base, the site was converted to a prisoner of war camp in 1864 with a capacity for approximately 12,000 prisoners. Before its closure in 1865, 2,963 prisoners died there from various causes.
  • Camp Lawton — Millen, Georgia To relieve some of the conditions at Andersonville, a larger prison was constructed in the summer of 1864 near the Lawton Depot in the town of Millen, Georgia. Around 10,000 prisoners were moved to Camp Lawton between October to late November 1864. It is currently a state park, Magnolia Springs.
  • Did this as a test on Wikivoyage -- easier to there as we have a few different options to use in maplinks and mapframes - converted it -- thought you might might be able to use this as a reference -- Just a thought - maybe get someone involved with maps to streamline it - I also did all the Civil War battles on Wikivoyage as a test - 1861-1865 -- Cheers! -- Matroc (talk) 06:12, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
