Notes section

--173.16.255.80 (talk) 03:25, 10 June 2009 (UTC) This is a perfect article. I tells me exactly what I need to know and no more, and it's well written.[reply]

23-March-2007: A Wikipedia "Notes" section contains footnotes, such as defined from ref-tags (<ref name=acme7>xxx</ref>). The footnotes (displayed by "<references/>") can cite sources or just explain details as an aside comment. A Wikipedia "References" section is a bibliography, typically in alphabetical order by name of author or organization.
To condense citation footnotes, reuse the same ref-name with a trailing slash "/" ("<ref name=acme7/>"), then for books, list all relevant page numbers in the one reused ref-tag (example: <ref name=acme7>J. Doe, ''ACME Handbook'', June 1897, pages 9/16/34-36.</ref>). Read more at: Wikipedia:Guide_to_layout. -Wikid77 10:28, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

History

Aside from the obvious Civil War, I'm not really sure how to go about this, but there was a lot more to Spanish Fort even though it may have only existed in name before 1993. For instance, there was at one time a Golf Course, a pretty interesting commerce center and one of the only ways to Mobile, Alabama before the I-10 Bridge was built.

@Mnemnoch:The golf course is still very nice (Timbercreek) and the large shopping mall is thriving. There has been a lot of growth. I live about 3 miles from there. Let me know specifically what you need. JodyB_talk 21:54, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@JodyB:Timbercreek is technically in the city of Daphne. The commerce center was at the intersection of 31 and 98. There was a golf course near the Estates according to city officials that I spoke to when on staff for the City. Mnemnoch (talk) 04:36, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Mnemnoch: I know that Timbercreek have Daphne postal addresses but are you sure the subdivision is actually part of Daphne? I think it is patrolled by SF PD and serviced by their fire department. I can check soon as I am out of town on business until late tonight. The commerce center is growing and includes the Bass Pro Shop and several other retailers. Do you need pictures? I'll be glad to help. As for the golf course it is part of Timbercreek and weaves its way through the subdivision. Just tell me what you need and I will be glad to help.
