editHey Melissa, welcome to Wikipedia, though it's clear to me you've been very productive in your first month here. My apologies for a late introduction-- I'm Jethro, and I wanted to introduce myself as a volunteer for the Pritzker in relation to Wikipedia-activities like the content we're working on for our GLAM project and coordinating edit-a-thon events. Just wanted to let you know that I'll be available on-wiki here for you whenever you have a question, or if you need me to look over anything. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you want to get in touch. Also, like with Jdanbeck, I wanted to ask if there you were at the Pritzker during regular days during the week. I'd like to swing by to properly introduce myself and show you around this wacky project. :) I, JethroBT drop me a line 23:59, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Jethro! Thanks for the introduction and the offer to help. Although I have been here for a month, and have learned a lot, I sure don't know everything there is to know. I'd be happy to meet with you and learn more about this project. I am here three days a week: Tuesday (9:15-3:45), Wednesday(9:45-4:15), and Thursday (11:45-3:45). If I have any questions, I'll definitely keep in touch. Thanks! Mchuedem (talk) 15:11, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Clayton Knight and Clayton Knight Committee articles
editThe Clayton Knight and Clayton Knight Committee articles have an issue with close paraphrasing to an art gallery source that you used. Can you try to fix that? TeriEmbrey (talk) 14:12, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
- @TeriEmbrey I fixed the Clayton Knight article. Now, the only thing the Copyvio Detector finds as paraphrasing is the list of books: http://tools.wmflabs.org/copyvios/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&title=Clayton+Knight&oldid=&action=search&use_engine=1&use_links=1#cv-chain-table Hopefully that is okay. Mchuedem (talk) 15:09, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- Looks good! Thanks for fixing! TeriEmbrey (talk) 15:19, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- TeriEmbrey No problem! I was also able to get the Clayton Knight Committee article from 97.2%copyvio to 39.4% http://tools.wmflabs.org/copyvios/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&title=Clayton+Knight+Committee&oldid=&action=search&use_engine=1&use_links=1 Mchuedem (talk) 17:10, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Bob Drury article
editI looked at the Bob Drury article today. You may want to double check it for close praraphrasing now before submitting as a DYK nomination.
PMML has sources (from his appearances here): http://www.pritzkermilitary.org/whats_on/pritzker-military-presents/robert-fx-drury-halseys-typhoon/ and http://www.pritzkermilitary.org/whats_on/pritzker-military-presents/bob-drury-heart-everything/
TeriEmbrey (talk) 14:43, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
- @TeriEmbrey I will fix a few of the sentences now, but it checks out with the copyvio detector. I will add those links to the article. Thanks! http://tools.wmflabs.org/copyvios/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&title=Bob+Drury&oldid=&action=search&use_engine=1&use_links=1 Mchuedem (talk) 15:11, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 17:09, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
Hello,
Your DYK nomination of the above is incomplete. It lacks both links and bolding of the subject of the hook. You will have to attend to these matters before your DYK nomination can progress.Georgejdorner (talk) 19:35, 3 December 2015 (UTC), wouldbe reviewer.
- @Georgejdorner I appreciate you letting me know, but isn't the template supposed to wikilink and bold the subject of the hook automatically? It states in the rules prior to nominating an article: Do not wikilink the article title, or the author and nominator usernames; the template will wikilink them automatically. I guess I'm confused on how I am supposed to fix the problem without going against this. Mchuedem (talk) 19:42, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
- @Georgejdorner I just went ahead and fixed it. Mchuedem (talk) 19:48, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Marche Lorraine
editHello Mchuedem,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Marche Lorraine for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is significant enough to be included in an encyclopedia, and the artist doesn't have an article.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Pixarh (talk) 17:40, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
- Pixarh Thanks for letting me know! I understand why you would tag it for deletion, but I will try to do more research on the song and see if I can find any images at the Library of Congress website. Mchuedem (talk) 17:45, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
Yes add more notable references to your article so that it does not get deleted by other editors. References are very necessary for articles as they strengthen articles because they are basically WP:Verfiability which is a core policy of Wikipedia. Also if you require help of any sort let me know. Pixarh (talk) 13:08, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
- Pixarh I finished updating the article with more information and an image.Mchuedem (talk) 15:28, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for December 17
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Pritzker Military Presents, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Civil War. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

ISBN numbers
editISBN numbers weren't created until 1965, so the books you reference on Frank M. Hume are too old to have them. In such a case, it's good to use the Template:OCLC. And where you get the OCLC number from, is by doing a WorldCat search. You might want to bookmark WorldCat for future searches.
I don't know where you got the number you use for ISBN numbers on this article, but not all books have the same ISBN numbers. And on Wikipedia, if you click on any ISBN number, it takes you to Book sources. You can scroll down to "Find this book" at...any number of locations. Quite frankly, I didn't find a book by the ISBN you gave.
Also, when you use different page numbers from the same book, you don't have to keep listing the book. Carlos de la Garza (Texas) is an example of how to handle that. Put the book in a separate section, which you could call Bibliography or References, or the like. Don't duplicate section names. Where the footnotes actually show up could be called References or Notes or Footnotes.
ISBN numbers are not a requirement for DYK reviews, so I think you were just given some general advice there. Good luck. — Maile (talk) 18:17, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
Pardon my intrusion, but even if not required, ISBNs have become nigh universal when they can be found. I found both 10 and 14 digit ISBN for this book via Google Advanced Book Search. I do use some older books which have been ISBNed in reprint. It is becoming common to see these older books "refreshed" through CreateSpace publication. It has been my practice to specify that the ISBN belongs to the reprint, not the original.Georgejdorner (talk) 05:53, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
- Twas no intrusion at all. I just perceive this user as new and needing some guidance on ISBN numbers. — Maile (talk) 16:27, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
Hello, Mchuedem,
I have reviewed the above nomination. It has some serious issues; fortunately, they are easily addressed. I have left some fairly extensive commentary in addition to the checks of the core criteria. I have placed this nomination on my Watch List and will ride herd on it, as I believe it can easily be brought up to snuff.Georgejdorner (talk) 05:45, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
- Hello, again,
- Perhaps you were distracted by the holidays. However, the above nomination needs a response if it is not to be closed as stale by an administrator. I am repeating my offer to aid in bringing this potential DYK up to standards. Feel free to catch me on my Talk page if need be.Georgejdorner (talk) 23:45, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
