User talk:47.153.26.8

I am trying to contact the individual who edits both of these Wikipedia articles: "The Bell Game" and the "List of high school football rivalries more than 100 years old."

I am new to the protocol used by Wikipedia so I hope this message gets through.

1) The Bell Game has a major historical error and 2) to be ethically correct the citations used in both articles primarily needs to reflect the research and promulgation of the original actual source that documented the very existence of the 1892 Central-Centennial rivalry.

Hello, Mr. Mihalick. If you see errors on the page please feel free to correct them, and please also add further information to the page as you see fit.

Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, I have no expertise in editing Wikipedia so it will be necessary for me to find and hire a source to make the changes I would like to see made in the references in both sites and this might be sometime in the future. However, with your expertise you should be able to correct the one error that I do see. The first victory bell game was the first 1950 game (Central 40-27) and not the second 1950 game. Again, thanks for your courtesy in responding. 2601:283:C202:5100:6DB3:8123:DD2F:54E8 (talk) 14:43, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much for the correction. I went ahead and updated the page, and I also subsequently changed what would then be the year of the 50th Bell Game. I encourage you to try your hand at editing the pages. It isn't all that difficult. There are some pretty good videos on YouTube which will give you an overview on how it is done.

Hi John, Thanks for your sources and vote of confidence. I will see what I can do but I am 78 and expect no miracless. BTW did you see the nice coverage the Chieftain did on me on October 23 (page A11)? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:283:C202:5100:6DB3:8123:DD2F:54E8 (talk) 14:46, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi John,

I seem to have got lost in how to contact you. I hope this reaches you. Thanks to your help I made edits to both of the pages.

It might be better if you contacted me by email so I won't get so lost. nugget4144@gmail.com Dave2601:283:C202:5100:6DB3:8123:DD2F:54E8 (talk) 16:03, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
