A page you started (Susan Dart Butler) has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating Susan Dart Butler.
I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process and note that:
Clearly a notable subject for an article. As Martin Bolden's thesis is online I've added the url and added a couple of other sources. There was actually an entry for her already on Wikidata which I've linked to, and I've also added an authority control tag in case she published (although I don't see that she did). While I'm marking this article as reviewed, I'm a little concerned that at least one section of the text was too close to the source's: you directly copied the phrase "tangible proof of the need for a library", which ideally could have been put in your own words. (Obviously if you're the original author of the text or it's not copyrighted that may not be an issue, but I can't know that.) Also, I felt that the sourcing fell off a bit towards the end as you started to get whole sentences without sources. In my experience when writing new articles it's often best to just keep the article short and not try to copy every last detail out of sources people can just click over to if they care. I also recommend using the Google Books citation generator for Google Books sources as it strips out all of Google's url and tracking junk (although it's a bit unreliable on the Safari browser if you use that). Hope that's all OK!

A page you started (Josephine Adelaide Clark) has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating Josephine Adelaide Clark.
I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process and note that:
I've added an authority control tag linking to her work on library catalogues, and a defsort tag so she appears under 'C' for Clark in all categories. Both of these are good standard things to include in all articles on authors.
There was a mistake in the dating (she finished high school in 1873, it's 1876 she started university) so I've changed that, and put citations at the end of every sentence citing the Five Colleges source (and tweaked the source a little to explain what it is-having the author as "Josephine Adelaide Clark" may be true if it's her papers, but it makes it sound like a self-authored authobiography).
The other thing I changed was a bit more subjective. You wrote "botanist and librarian" but it seems to me she was maybe more librarian than botanist? If her degree was in botany the source didn't say it. So I flipped that round, but realise that's a bit subjective. The bird tablet thing sounds quite fun-I tried looking on the Internet Archive for a copy to show in the article but couldn't, sadly. Anyway, hope that's all OK!

A page you started (Eva Auld Watson) has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating Eva Auld Watson.
I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process and note that:
Looks good. If you look at the family website (and the nytimes death announcement) she had another son, Lyn "Merlin" Auld Watson, who seems from context to be her first child. I can't find any extensive information about him but I've added him into the article in the order on the family website. Few things regarding naming: I've changed Aldren A. Watson to Aldren Auld Watson as I don't think you ever abbreviate surnames. (Their kids have such stereotypical fancy artists'-children's names!) Finally I've clarified that Auld was her maiden surname and not a middle name. We had an entry for her added on Wikidata last year and I've linked to that, and added an authority control tag. Hope that's all OK!

Aaron Draplin
hello and thanks for your edits. Aaron Draplin is very notable. See the links to article coverage that I added to the AfD. it would be good if you withdrew the nomination as he has no chance of being deleted.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 00:20, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
Please stop nominating articles for deletion until you understand the criteria. Rodrigo Corral has profiles in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, NEW, AIGA etc. You need to do WP:BEFORE before you nominate an article, to see if there are available sources. This and the article above are very clearly notable, and their available sourcing is excellent. See also [[deletion is not cleanup]]. The proper thing to do is to withdraw this nomination and the one above, in order to save time for other editors.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 01:17, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
- Thnak you for withdrawing this AfD nomination and the above one. Make sure you check these people out bfore nominating-- some are not notable, but the two above certainly were hugely notable.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 14:55, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
- ThatMontrealIP, thanks for your patience. Sorry for any trouble I unintentionally caused. 9H48F (talk) 21:58, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
Here is another one where you did not do your research-- this time before tagging for notability. Ronald Clyne has been covered by the Smithsonian magazine, and more importantly is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York. These were on the first page of Google results. I guess you are just running through these graphic designer articles and tagging and deleting them. Please slow down and do your research before doing so, as it is disruptive not to do so.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 01:40, 1 June 2019 (UTC)

Coordinates for William Ulmer Brewery
In your work on the article on William Ulmer Brewery, I notice that you replaced the coordinates already in the article, 40°41′57″N 73°56′12″W, with 40°42′30.59″N 73°57′7.19″W. These coordinates pointed several blocks away. The only reason I noticed is that the incorrect coordinates also had too many digits of precision. I looked up the address, and edited some D°M′S″ coordinates into the article. Amusingly, these happened to be the exact same numbers as you removed. Anyway, I wonder at the genesis of the incorrect coordinates? Did you cut and paste from somewhere? Have you introduced more incorrect coordinates elsewhere on Wikipedia? Abductive (reasoning) 08:16, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Abductive Sorry about that, thank you for fixing. I did copy and paste but don't remember exactly where from... This was my first try with coordinates and appear to have gotten muddled! Is there a good resource I can bookmark for future reference? I added coordinates to the NYCHA properties and the Pakatakan Artists Colony Historic District when I was adding infoboxes, but realized I should copy what was already there so I don't *think* I overwrote any... 9H48F (talk) 16:23, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- No worries, if it is not a systemic error don't sweat it. Just check the cooordinates in articles by clicking on them and make sure they hit their targets. Abductive (reasoning) 06:12, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Hello
Hi! I saw some of your recent edits to Columbus topics. Thank you for your contributions! I had to create many articles on its culture and history recently, many of which still lack a lot of detail. I would also be very glad for more photographs! I would be glad to collaborate on any topics too. Glad for your help, ɱ (talk) 16:34, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @User:Ɱ! I've seen you around on Columbus topics too and am happy to help. Your work is quite impressive!! I've been focusing mostly on parks because I like greenspaces and gardening and would like to create an article on Mel Dodge who set up the Parks Dept as we know it and Livingston Park. But are there articles that would be of more interest to build out? Or photos you need? I've never contributed photography since in NY there were so many editors that contributed photos for all the things I needed I never much bothered. Are you the only Columbus-based editor? 9H48F (talk) 03:04, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks! Email me at ematwikipedia@gmail.com and I'll be glad to say more personal details about my work. I've also been hoping to hold a wiki meetup in Columbus at some point, I know a few others and there at least was more of a community there for a while. ɱ (talk) 04:45, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
Careful
Here - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ben_Wattenberg&diff=next&oldid=1043517109 - you're presenting an opinion (and one which isn't that meaningful - what exactly does "challenged and reshaped conventional wisdom" mean?) as if it were a fact. Yes, you cited your source, but you still presented it as if it were a fact.
The fact is "National Affairs has this opinion about Wattenberg". You must therefore attribute that opinion to National Affairs. DS (talk) 21:33, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

New page reviewer granted
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/57/Wikipedia_New_page_reviewer.svg/80px-Wikipedia_New_page_reviewer.svg.png)
Hi 9H48F. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group. Please check back at the permissions page in case your user right is time-limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page or ask via the NPP Discord. In addition, please remember:
- Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
- You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
- If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
- Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page, including checking for copyright violations using Earwig's copyright violation detector, checking for duplicate articles, and evaluating sources (both in the article, and if needed, via a Google search) for compliance with the general notability guideline.
- Please review some of our flowcharts (1, 2) to help ensure you don't forget any steps.
- Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. If you can read any languages other than English, please add yourself to the list of new page reviewers with language proficiencies. – Joe (talk) 22:05, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks!!! 9H48F (talk) 22:36, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:Columbus Department of Education
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
Hello, 9H48F. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Columbus Department of Education".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 02:53, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
