The list might need some editting but I went both from memory and from Google Maps

Bay Island or Towns or both? [edit]

If the thrust of this article was to be about the island of the bay, then perhaps a new entry should be made. Assuming the artilce is about the whole of the bay, the towns need to be covered..24.90.83.167 16:39, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Duck Trap Farms [edit]

The comment "Duck Trap Farms smoke house is near here" next to Lincolnville sounds nothing more than advertisement. I have deleted it for this reason.

The Ancient Penobscot, or Panawanskek (Original article) [edit]

The long standing link to the 1872 article The Ancient Penobscot, or Panawanskek by John E. Godfrey has been restored. This originally linked page (which has been in place since September 19, 2006) is a verbatim transcription made directly from the article as originally published in The HISTORICAL MAGAZINE and Notes and Queries concerning The Antiquities, History, and Biography of America. (Third Series, Vol. I, No. II; Whole Number, Vol. XXI, No. II) February, 1872. (Morrisina, N.Y., Henry B. Dawson) pp. 85-92 to which was then added a number of illustrations, many annotations, and links to various maps and many other sources of related information located on third party websites. The recently substituted link, on the other hand, is to a 502-page pdf of a volume of unsourced printed transcriptions in an 1876 anthology of materials collected and republished by the Maine Historical Society which includes only the raw text of the Godfrey article, but none of the illustrations, maps, and links to third party sites included in the page linked to the article in 2006. Further substitution of the unverified, unsourced 1876 transcription for the 1872 original (with annotations and illustrations) will be considered to be disruptive editing and treated as such.
