Funeral of nine of the victims of the "Maine" disaster
Paley, William Daly. Decker, Karl. Thomas A. Edison, Inc. (March 27, 1898). "Funeral of nine of the victims of the "Maine" disaster". loc.gov. Retrieved 19 March 2018. Taken at Key West, Fla. First comes a detachment of sailors and marines in the left foreground, while at the right is seen a crowd of small colored boys, which precedes any public procession in the South. Then follow the nine hearses, each coffin draped with THE FLAG. At the side of each wagon walk the pall bearers, surviving comrades, their heads bowed in attitudes of grief. Next come naval officers and marines, and lastly a procession of carriages, followed by a large crowd on foot.{{cite web}}: CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (link)

Various sources refer to this ship as "(BB-2)" and "(BB-2/c)", but our article text does not address these designations. — SMcCandlish☏¢ 😼 22:33, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
Broken citation
There a harv citation with content "DANFS Maine (ACR-1).", which generates the big red error message "Harv error: link from CITEREFDANFS_Maine_(ACR-1) doesn't point to any citation." (if you have visibility of those messages turned on). This usually happens when someone deletes material containing the full citation without cleaning up after sortenened footnotes that refer to it, though occassionally it's an error in the original citation. — SMcCandlish☏¢ 😼 22:35, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
