Hi friend
Sorry for the harsh warning, please do take a look at what the patroller was on about with the passage they believed was a copyright violation.

I notice that you didn't add page numbers in your footnotes, if you could dive back in and add those where I left ??? question marks, it would be most beneficial. Also, the URL for your LA Times website link isn't correct and i couldn't suss out what the correct URL should have been. If you could figure that out and fix that, it would be appreciated.

Excellent work on the article, please don't be discouraged or mad — it takes a while to get the hang of these things and the page patrollers work fast and tend to be grumpy sorts. There's a real learning curve. If you have any questions or if I can help in any way, don't hesitate to write. —Tim Davenport /// MutantPop@aol.com /// Carrite (talk) 07:20, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
