Excellent work on the expansion! I performed a few formatting tweaks. Let me know if you have any questions. Hal Jespersen 15:22, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

quotes and other punctuation

Please see WP:MOS#Quotation_marks. Wikipedia has a "house style" which dictates where punctuation is placed in relation to quotes, so there was no need to make the changes you did to Great Fire of London. Not a huge problem (not too difficult for someone to go back and fix), but something you might want to know. Thanks! --Spangineer^ws (háblame) 19:18, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Confederate government of Kentucky

Thank you for your edits to Confederate government of Kentucky. You may or may not be aware that this article is currently a featured article candidate. Would you take a few minutes to add your comments to the nomination page? Thanks. Acdixon 19:10, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your support of my FA nom for Confederate government of Kentucky. This nomination has been restarted due to a high volume of irrelevant comments. If you still feel you can support this article for FA status, I would appreciate your re-adding your support. Thanks so much! Acdixon 14:03, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Sir or Ma'm: you did not respond to my above comment, and I couldn't undo the mess you made so I reverted it as vandalism, if you want to totally reformat something like that please let author know before doing so, as it made things very much of a mess.John5Russell3Finley 20:30, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Wilderness Confederate order of battle

What would you think about moving this article to Confederate order of battle at the Battle of the Wilderness? That seems to make more sense. Corvus cornix 21:05, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Richard Coulter

Thank you for expanding and improving the article on General Coulter Sr. (1827 - 1908). As you can see from my user id, I am from Greensburg and was affected in several ways by the Coulters, mostly by General Coulter's son General Richard Coulter Jr. (1870 - 1955) although I never met him. I just did an article on Richard Coulter Jr. who was a Brig. General in WW I. My father knew him and worked for him during the Depression in the 1930s when he (Richard Jr) was president of the First National Bank of Greensburg. The bank held the mortgage on my father's house. When my father was laid off and could not make the mortgage payments, he asked the bank for help. Coulter hired my father to do carpentry, plumbing, and electrical work on old Victorian houses that the bank had forclosed on and which were unsaleable because they were not wired for electricity and/or did not have indoor plumbing. In 1951 when I was a teenager, my father bought a vacant lot from Coulter on Brushton Ave. in the "Coulter Plan" near Coulter's Hawksworth mansion in north Greensburg (the old general's homestead you mentioned) and submitted plans for a new house which my father designed and submitted to Richard Jr. for approval.

You said you knew Howard Coulter, a grandson of General Coulter Sr. I have been unable to find a Howard Coulter in the 1910, 1920, or 1930 census of Westmoreland County, PA. Perhaps you mean Henry W Coulter Jr. (1920 - 1999), son of Henry Welty Coulter Sr. (1873 - 1932) and grandson of Richard Coulter Sr.

Do you know of anything written about General Richard Coulter Jr. and his activities in the First National Bank? Greensburger (talk) 01:03, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Pittsburgh

Hello, 8th Ohio Volunteers! FYI, per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (settlements)#United States, Pittsburgh is one of the 29 American cities that need not be modified by its state. Maybe Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in the American Civil War should be moved to Pittsburgh in the American Civil War, no? Rgrds. --Tombstone (talk) 15:46, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

prevention

I have put a warning on your user page. If you don't like it, you may remove it. I put it to prevent you from being blocked or banned. Administrators can and have unblocked others and it is very difficult to be unblocked. A possible reason to block you is that group accounts are banned. Your user name is plural suggesting that several people edit from the same account. Chergles (talk) 19:33, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Hello. You are right. Most people wouldn't be bothered by it or even notice it. However, it only takes one person to create a fuss. Maybe I should change my name to prevent confusion. How about Chergle, 1 Chergle, not plural. Chergles (talk) 19:31, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Jacob Gartner Lauman

I did some light work on this page you've added quite a lot to, mostly dealing with links, dates, and formatting. I also put in two PD images with appr. captions and cited what I could. A source of mine gives an alternative spelling of his last name as Lanman that was most likely a War Dept. mispelling/typo. Have you come across this before? Hope you don't mind my butting in! Kresock (talk) 19:19, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

I have never heard of his name as Lanman. Lauman is a relatively common Germanic name. Thanks for starting the article - I trust you didn't mind that I picked up on the stub. By the way, keep up the good work! I appreciate your efforts. 8th Ohio Volunteers (talk) 01:10, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Appreciate the kind remarks. I wasn't the one who created this page though, Kkmurray did. They might not even recognize it now! Kresock (talk) 16:18, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

S. A. M. Wood

Hi there again 8th. Just to let you know, due to discussion here as well as changes to MOS:SYL, we are not linking dates in new pages anymore. Also via a reasonable request by Hlj we are not gonna link Confederate officer links below general grades to the U.S. specific articles, just to the generic ones, such as using :Colonel instead of :Colonel (United States); just for the CSA though. I haven't reverted any of your changes to Wood's page, but feel free to do so if you want. Kresock (talk) 21:02, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

James T. Kirk (Union officer)

Thanks for your nice work in fleshing out this article. I was fascinated to find that this soldier's name in B&L was the same as the Star Trek character. That's why I created it. Djmaschek (talk) 02:24, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

George W. Taylor (general) redlink

Please do create this article; I'm logged out ATM, but a bit of quick googing turned up the following sources: entry at the Political Graveyard, a letter from Booker T. Washington to him (via a collection of BTW's letters on Google Books), and an entry in a Whos-Who type of book (also from Google Books). That should give you enough to start with. I was tempted to remove the redlink, but I'm glad I took the time to do the research instead. Please do create the article, so my time won't have been wasted. (Or I may do it when I log in). Thanks for adding to the List of people with surname Taylor page! -- 75.212.108.132 (talk) (really, User:JesseW/not logged in) 18:58, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Done. 8th Ohio Volunteers (talk) 20:51, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for doing that; I'm amused to learn that the sources I found are actually about George Washington Taylor, not George W. Taylor (general), who fought on the other side of the war from the first one. In any case, I've dropped the refs I found on the correct Taylor's page. 75.212.108.132 (talk) (really, User:JesseW/not logged in) 23:03, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Battle of Plattsburgh

Thanks for adding the Thanks of Congress to Alexander Macomb (American general). It was a good link with some really useful info (that was new to me), and which really amplified the words in the resolution. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 21:45, 6 October 2008 (UTC) Stan

Abram S. Piatt

I was going to nominate Abram S. Piatt for DYK, until upon reading the article I saw that, although the text says he resigned his generalship in 1863, the infobox says that he served until 1866. Could you correct one of these dates? Nyttend (talk) 12:12, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Reading the DYK criteria, I see that an inline reference must be placed immediately after the extraordinary fact being used as a hook, and I don't see anything extraordinary immediately before the inlines. Could you shift an inline, or add more extraordinary bits? Nyttend (talk) 12:24, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Just a note to let you know your work is noticed and appreciated! My area of interest is the history of the United States Army between the Civil War and World War I, which overlaps quite often with what you've been doing, so I have run across your name in various places.

Quick question

Hi there and Merry Christmas! I've noticed that you created an article on the Battle of Britton's Lane last month and I was wondering if this was part of the Iuka and Corinth operations. (Also, please add the {{WPMILHIST}} tag and ACW-task-force=yes to the talk pages of any CW article you create.) Thanks for your contributions! Wild Wolf (talk) 23:05, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

As far as I know, you can rate your articles as stub or start class, and you can rate it as B-class as long as it meets the criteria. For GA, A-class, and FA articles, they need to be review before they can receive these ratings. You can check out the assessment FAQ has more info on this.

Ohio in the War of 1812

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:01, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Copyright problem

The article Anna Elinor Jones has been deleted, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. The Wikimedia Foundation received an e-mailed complaint of copyright infringement (viewable to OTRS agents only at Ticket:2010102510010931) in the article, which you created on 20 October 2008. The allegation is that you copied content from Custer's Cape Cod Mistress by Evan J. Albright. The article was blanked on 26 October for evaluation. A comparison shows that you did both copy and paste content from that source and follow too closely on it. For instance, your article included the following sentences copied verbatim in violation of our copyright policy andnon-free content policy and guideline:

• She denied being a spy, but admitted that she had depended on the kindness of Union officers for her sustenance
• As part of her parole she promised to stay out of Virginia, but in March 1864 she was arrested while trying to bluff her way into the state.

It also included content minimally altered, as with your sentence "The War Department incarcerated Jones in the Old Capitol Prison until November when Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton ordered her freed" (the source says "The War Department incarcerated Miss Jones in the Old Capitol Prison until November when Secretary of War Stanton ordered her freed). The resultant article was a clear derivative work.

While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation - including both structure and language - are. So that it will not constitute a derivative work, content you provide must be written in your own words, except for brief clearly marked quotes. The essay Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches, while about plagiarism rather than copyright concerns, also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism".

If you are unsure how to incorporate non-free content into articles, please seek feedback. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 16:54, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of John Jordan Crittenden III

The article John Jordan Crittenden III has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Doesn't seem to have done anything besides be a member of a prominent family and gotten killed. Fails GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Operations Against Galveston (American Civil War)

A tag has been placed on Category:Operations Against Galveston (American Civil War) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz ^{Read!

Proposed deletion of Johnny Reb Gaming Society

The article Johnny Reb Gaming Society has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.
