Citation needed

[edit]

This addition needs a cite. I've added a {{citeneeded}} tag. IMDB seems to indicate that the film was shot in the UK. I lived in Ada in 1999, as I do now, and I would surely have remembered this. ++Lar: t/c 21:36, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No cite was provided, so out it comes. If a cite can be found please feel free to add it back. thanks! ++Lar: t/c 21:20, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rocks

[edit]

The reference used for the "wagons carrying rocks" assertion says that "It is said that farmers used to drive wagons loaded with stones onto the bridge during high water to hold it to the foundation." Why is hearsay, apparently from a historical marker, being treated as fact on this page and on the main page? --NE2 23:30, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's a solid ref, once it is on a historical marker, that's citeable, whether it's true or not. Feel free to reword the wording to say allegedly if you like. I took the pic of the historical marker, and the same text is in a DB of historical markers, cited in the article. ++Lar: t/c 00:36, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Are you sure that the historical marker is a reliable source? I will edit the article to say that this is according to the marker. --NE2 00:49, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I like how you changed it, now it just points to the marker, and doesn't matter whether the marker is reliable or not, it just reports what the marker says. ++Lar: t/c 01:34, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
