Northwest Coast Art
[edit]Hi Sparkit, thanks for categorizing my article! (I wrote only one -- the one on Northwest Coast Art.) I noticed today that someone has done some kind of erroneous edit to it... actually it looks like some kind of keyboard/mouse accident rather than a genuine attempt to edit it (see the sections on Cultural Appropriateness and the References).
Newbie alert -- sorry if these questions are naive. Is it possible to revert the article? If so, do you have the power/ability to revert it? ElaraGirl was the one that did the most improvements to it (adding references and pictures, for instance) but she seems to have withdrawn from Wikipedia. I would really appreciate it if you could do it or tell me how to do it.
By the way, I'm a big fan of Marcel Duchamp and I will be checking out your pages on him.
thanks --Jamie. User:JamesHAndrews
- Hi Jamie!
- I reverted it, which is really quite easy to do. See Help:Reverting. Newbie questions are cool, it means someone wants to learn. :)
- I enjoyed reading the article, and was delighted to see it here on wikipedia... being a native northwesterner... well, I grew up here, of European ancestry.
- Let me know what you think of the Duchamp article. I've been picking away at it for a very long time, and I think it's still very choppy. Tompkins biography about him is wonderful. I highly recommend it.
