Mrs. Chas H. Weaver postcard to Franklin County Woman Suffrage Association, October 1, 1914
Mrs. Chas H. Weaver wrote this letter to the "Suffrage Headquarters," the Franklin County Woman Suffrage Association, on October 1, 1914, requesting literature concerning women's suffrage.
The Franklin County Woman Suffrage Association was formed in 1912, after the Ohio Constitutional Convention elected to bring to a vote the question of removing the words "white male" from the state constitution with regard to voting rights. Headquartered in the Chamber of Commerce building in Columbus, Ohio, the organization put out regular publications, organized public speeches and meetings, distributed literature and held parades in support of the suffrage movement. Women's suffrage in Ohio was defeated in a special election in 1912 and again in 1914 and 1916 before a resolution narrowly passed in 1917 allowing municipal voting by women in Columbus. In 1920, the 19th Amendment passed, extending the vote to women and prohibiting state and federal government from denying suffrage on the basis of sex

Citation quality and knowledge creation in tourism
Emphasis on research quantity over quality in the modern corporatised university disincentivises mindful research where citations accurately reflect source content. To indicate the extent of this problem in tourism, this research analyses the 155 citations in peer-reviewed journals to Weaver's (2011) article “Can sustainable tourism survive climate change? published in Journal of Sustainable Tourism, which questions conventional wisdom on the need for tourism to prioritise climate change action. Over one-third (36.8%) of citations were ‘knowledge impeding’ due to inaccurate content citation, while none were ‘knowledge developing’ through application, testing or alteration of Weaver (2011) content. The remaining citations accurately cited source content and were therefore ‘knowledge facilitating’. No statistically significant relationship pertained between citation quality and journal quality, or between the former and concurrent reference to Scott's (2011) rejoinder “Why sustainable tourism must address climate change” published in Journal of Sustainable Tourism, a rejoinder. Significant relationships were identified with publication time and journal specialisation, with more recent years and non-tourism journals having lower quality citations; specifically, 64.0% of citations in 2016–2020 non-tourism journals were knowledge impeding. Recommendations include author disclosure statements confirming citation accuracy, random pre-publication audits of accepted papers, and provision of ‘good citation’ guidelines on journal websites.No Full Tex
