Help Request edit

Hello, My name is Heather Wimberly, and I am the daughter of G.J."Pete" Wimberly. I would like to help but keep running into problems with the editing feature (how to reference myself, for example).. Okay: There are two errors in this article. First, my dad died on December 30, 1995. I think there was some confusion because the funeral was held in January of 1996, but he died in 1995. Also he was born in Ellensburg, Washington on January 16, 1915. And he died of COPD, which, technically, is not the same as emphysema. I can add a lot of other things to the article, as I not only lived with the guy but worked at WATG for fifteen years (1978-1993). I have some great photos of his work but I don't think the photographer is still alive and wouldn't know how to be sure about copyrights. I'll look for some photos of my dad too. I traveled with him in Asia in the 1980's and can probably find some photos of some of his projects that I took when we were there. I just created an account for myself here on Wikipedia, and if I can figure out the editing business, I can hopefully do some editing myself. - H.Wimberly, Honolulu, HI., April 25, 2013. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Heather M Wimberly (talkcontribs) 05:34, 26 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Concern about one source edit

There is once source here named "were" that is cited 28 times in the article. It is a 404 link, with a very spartan-looking "archive" page, which weakens greatly the already over-dependent nature of this article on that one source. - Hard thoughtful work (talk) 18:06, 22 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
