External link or reference for quote?[edit]

Is the "external link" intended to be a reference for the quote? And is the quote intentionally commented out? I can't read the external link as I'm not a subscriber. The external link section ought to be at the end of the article, but I won't move it there if it ought to be converted to a reference. --David Biddulph (talk) 13:37, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No it’s not. It’s background. I don’t know what you mean the quote commented out. deisenbe (talk) 21:39, 26 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

General Government[edit]

The use of the term "General Government" in the quote from John Quincy Adams II was not an error and should not be followed by [sic]. It was used then to refer to the Federal government. See Dictionary of the United States Congress, and the General Government (1868) for an example of the use of the term in that era. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:41, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
