Smmurphy, Thank you very much! I am just learning my way around here. Glad Jean Skipwith now will not be lost to history. Thought the BBC effort a wonderful idea. Finding the "code" a bit intimidating. Yes, see some editing that still needs to be done. I looked at the grading scheme. Oddly enough, the information in the article is very, very thorough. I included everything out there that could be located on the web, short of reproducing her book lists or plant lists or correspondence in toto. Lady Skipwith is not well known, but her accomplishments were unusual for her time and place, so her inclusion is important, as compared, say to her husband's grandfather (a do-nothing MP already in the Cambridge bios). Will keep improving this one. Again, thank you, CPBenagh (talk) 01:30, 15 December 2016 (UTC)CPBReply

As a note, because you published a version, and then this draft of the article published by the AfC process was accepted, there were until today two copies extant of the article, Jean Skipwith and Jean Miller Skipwith, Lady Skipwith. I've reset this latter second copy to just redirect to the Jean Skipwith article that has been more throughly edited, but in case you need to take any text out of it this is a link to it. Hope this is helpful. Blythwood (talk) 17:39, 15 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Blythwood, Thank you. I have copies, so the drafts can be deleted.CPBenagh (talk) 02:11, 16 December 2016 (UTC)CPBenaghReply

May 2018 edit

  Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Tikki Tikki Tembo. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. DMacks (talk) 17:14, 5 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
