Orphaned references in 1894 Atlantic hurricane season
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 1894 Atlantic hurricane season's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "partagas":
- From 1897 Atlantic hurricane season: Jose Fernandez-Partagas and Henry Diaz (1996). Year 1897 (PDF). Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (Report). Miami, Florida: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. pp. 57–69. Retrieved March 1, 2014.
- From List of Category 3 Atlantic hurricanes: Fernández-Partagás, José; Diaz, Henry F. (1997). A Reconstruction of Historical Tropical Cyclone Frequency in the Atlantic from Documentary and other Historical Sources (PDF). Boulder, Colorado: Climate Diagnostics Center, NOAA. pp. 41–48. Retrieved 2011-10-05.
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT⚡ 02:26, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

Spot-check:
- "Flooding occurred in Cuba between Havana and Oriente Province, with the worst impacts in Santa Clara." – Details check out.
- "In the Gulf of Mexico, the schooner Violin was dismasted during the storm and towed to shore by another schooner, the Henry Southers." – Ditto.
- "Additionally, the schooner Origin became caught in the storm, which damaged several parts of the ship and threw one person overboard, who drowned." – This also matches.
- "Numerous structures on Hispaniola suffered some degree of damage, with 500 homes and two churches destroyed." – This is accurate.
- "washing away a 1,000 ft (300 m) section of railroad and wrecking vessels on Horn Island" – Both sources concur.
Miscellaneous:
- submerging land south of Pointe à la Hache →
submerging land at Pointe à la Hache
(the source only mentions Pointe à la Hache)
