  • Note to reviewer: the present-day value was computed by the author ("Value of $25,000 in 1920. Inflation Calculator for Today's Dollars. N.p., n.d. Web. 03 May 2017."). I know there is a template, some standard way of doing this, but I don't know what that is and your help is appreciated. Dr Aaij (talk) 14:33, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
Lurker's comment (not reviewing) $((inflation|US|25000|1920|fmt=c)) gives $380,233 Thincat (talk) 19:40, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
Thanks. I've tweaked the hook; thank you Yngvadottir. Dr Aaij (talk) 17:17, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
  • Also, the first paragraph under H.P. Williams's hunt needs an in-line citation. I noticed it after the tick (because I always notice these things on the second look through...) I'm assuming it is based on the same source as the second paragraph based on the style, but didn't want to move it without confirmation. I don't see a need to "untick" since the hook is sourced and as a whole it is a fine article, but its an issue that should be addressed. TonyBallioni (talk) 18:36, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
  • TonyBallioni, you are absolutely correct: thank you. And while I was correcting I saw that the third paragraph also needed that citation...! Thincat, I also stuck in your inflation template--thank you. Dr Aaij (talk) 15:13, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
