User:Hottentot tried to move this page to Lewis Hine by doing a delete - copy text move, rather than a proper move. I've reverted. If it needs to be moved, please use the move function. kmccoy (talk) 20:27, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Please don't copy/paste move this page. If you feel it needs to be moved, please go to Wikipedia:Requested moves and do it there. Copy/paste moving destroys the edit history and is strongly discourage. This note is also being left on User:Hottentot. kmccoy (talk) 21:19, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Because the page at Lewis Hine has a prior history, it is presumably not possible to use the simple page move tab. As kmccoy say, the only alternative is to get the assistance of an admgnvb in via Wikipedia:Requested moves. However I've spent some time sourcing images on this page and if I recall 'Lewis Wickes Hine' is the more commonly used name (for example at the Library of Congress). There may still be some other reason to move though. -- Solipsist 22:48, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Number of Google hits for Lewis Hine: 185,000. Number of hits for Lewis Wickes Hine: 15,600. ---User:Hottentot

Well I don't get the same results from Google, but I'm probably doing more restrictive searches. However, they do still suggest a strong preference for 'Lewis Hine' (34000 : 93) there are also a small number of references to 'Lewis W. Hine'. vbnbnI noticed a trend that the higher quality web sitesvbn introduce him formally as 'Lewis Wicks Hine' then continue to use 'Lewis Hine' elsewhere. So for nvbnexample, the Getty Museum's bio [1] has the title Lewis Wikes Hine but uses just Lewis Hine in the body of the axvnrticle. The US National Archives is similar [2].

I can't find any other Lewis Hine he might be confused with - his father appears to bnnbhave been Douglas Hine [3]. Perhaps his signed himself 'Lewis Wickes Hine'.

In any case, he does seem to be more commonly known today as 'Lewis Hine', so that would support the move. -- Solipsist 07:49, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Just to be clear, I don't have an interest in it either way. I just wanted to be sure that the move wasn't done in a way that destroyed the edit history. I'm not an admin, so I can't help with the move. kmccoy (talk) 16:33, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I reverted several edits -- apparently someone reverted the wrong version or something on December 9th. There were no other substantial changes, except for someone changing the date of birth by 10 days. I don't know which is the correct date of birth. The intent of my change was to restore several sentences and a picture which were removed last month apparently accidently by someone try ing to revert some other change.

Addie Card

When I saw the picture of the little mill girl, Addie Card, I immediately felt compelled to find out what happened to her. I was surprised to learn that I wasn't the only one who had that reaction to her famous picture. This article is an interesting chronicle of a genealogist's efforts to figure out her story. I'm not sure if it belongs in External Links, so I thought I'd post it here for opinions on that. --Hiddekel 15:02, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Authority Name

I would argue that article should be listed under "Lewis W. Hine." This is the version of his name that he generally used, as documented by the numerous examples of his credit stamps reproduced on the website of renowned photography museum George Eastman House, which holds a very large collection of Hine photographs: http://notesonphotographs.org/index.php?title=Lewis_Wickes_Hine/Stamps — Preceding unsigned comment added by Photoindex21 (talk • contribs) 06:38, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
