Talk:The 1856 Milton Cotton Worker’s Strike

I'm fairly impressed with your understanding of wiki markup. This helps me out a lot. Quotes usually go at the top of a page. If it's necessary for it to remain in the body text, please use the {{Cquote}} for the reason that it is more aesthetically pleasing (though it couldn't help your sister any, ba-dum tish!) Below is how it is usually done:

{{Cquote|For too long we have been powerless! For too long we have downtrodden by the mill owners! But now we will show them we are not weak! We are the workers, the men who carry society. Today we say no more to [[death]] and disease, to poverty and unfair pay. Poppywheel [[Mill]]s must give into our demands or we shall work no more. All workers must be treated justly as equals. All workers must receive an honest days pay. All workers must be safe from injury. All child-workers must have rights and never be beaten. And most importantly we shall be given free [[tea]] and [[biscuits]] every Monday mourn. And they must be good [[biscuits]], crispy golden brown on the outside warm, fluffy and doughy on the inside.}}

You can be creative in your citing of who said it. It might, altogether, appear something like this:

“ For too long we have been powerless! For too long we have downtrodden by the mill owners! But now we will show them we are not weak! We are the workers, the men who carry society. Today we say no more to death and disease, to poverty and unfair pay. Poppywheel Mills must give into our demands or we shall work no more. All workers must be treated justly as equals. All workers must receive an honest days pay. All workers must be safe from injury. All child-workers must have rights and never be beaten. And most importantly we shall be given free tea and biscuits every Monday mourn. And they must be good biscuits, crispy golden brown on the outside warm, fluffy and doughy on the inside. ”

Your work is quite hilarious. When it's finished, I'd love to give it a thorough review. As of now, it has the potential to be high-quality material. --EMC ^[TALK] 21:59, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
