The information on Harriet Tubman about the times she led slaves to freedom and how many is incorrect on the Wikipedia Harriet Tubman page. She returned to the south 17 times and led 300 slaves to freedom. This information in one of many came from Biography.com Lulamae1914 (talk) 05:08, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I see mostly of the references of this article may be confusing for a normal user. Just looking for the name and year on Internet (Clinton 2004, Larson 2004) doesn't seem to give a result of what the reference may be (in some cases). Shouldn't there be some link to a reliable readable online version of the book or, if not, an ISBN code? --The Typos Checker (fixed typos) 22:45, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The short form footnotes all match the list of Sources immediately below. This is a common format for referencing. On many articles this is done with templates that link the footnotes to the sources, but that is not required. Since the article has a mostly consistent, accepted citation style, it shouldn't be changed without a strong reason (not just personal preference) or discussion about it here on the Talk page. When I refreshed the article for TFA in 2009, I added years to the footnotes as a necessary step to distinguish multiple sources from the same author, but I didn't add templates since it wasn't required to achieve that. But I don't object to using templates (I typically do when I am writing new articles) and am happy to do so if there are no objections here. --RL0919 (talk) 02:34, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I personally think it would be better. It makes easier searching the source for the reader, and, also, I don't think a more complex citation would be problem as to be a contra. It's just adding more info, although I know that the current citation style is also okay. --The Typos Checker (fixed typos) 20:24, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
TV show “Timeless” says Tubman had streets named for her in England or elsewhere. Can’t verify, but article says “several states”.
