Thanks for Thomas Hastings Gravestone!
Thanks for documenting this gravestone. The photo of the Thomas Hastings gravestone has been linked to Thomas Hastings - architect. Was your photo of the gravestone taken in the Putnam cemetery in Connecticut where Hastings is reported to be buried?

License tagging for File:John McGillicuddy Gravesite 2011.JPG
Thanks for uploading File:John McGillicuddy Gravesite 2011.JPG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

License tagging for Image:Lou Gehrig best 800.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Lou Gehrig best 800.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Hi, I actually confirmed your info right here on WP, which I should have done before reverting your edit. My only defense is that I saw an unsourced assertion in an article that is a frequent target for vandalism. Subtle vandalisms which add false info to an article are particularly dangerous because they can damage WP's credibility. I already replaced your material; sorry if I caused you any concern : ) Doc Tropics Message in a bottle 01:36, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Conde Nast headstone
Sorry, I disagree; find a photograph of the man, not his headstone. Frankly, it could be any Nast; there's no name on it confirming him. In any case, it's trivial. This isn't a dead site for fans, though I love gravestones and graveyards as much as the next guy. I really don't think a gravestone pic belongs in an encyclopaedia article, even if you have posted many before. Frankly, such an image isn't important unless (a) the gravesite is extraordinary and of wide interest (ie architecturally, like the tomb of Warren G. Harding) or (b) it is being used to illustrate the posthumous devotion of fans, ie Oscar Wilde or the lead singer of the Doors.Mowens35 01:38, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Babe Ruth headstone
I removed the photo of the Babe Ruth headstone from that article for reasons similar to those cited by Mowens35 (above). Frankly, the photo does not add any value to the article: it is not architecturally or stylistically unique and doesn't say anything about Babe Ruth himself. To quote Mowens35: "I really don't think a gravestone pic belongs in an encyclopaedia article, even if you have posted many before." Sorry to be so blunt, Oscar 14:08, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Iona Preperatory School
No, I did clean it up. The wording was not neutral at all, and, more importantly, it was copied straight from the school's website. Unless the school relicenses the text on their website under the GFDL, it should be removed anyway. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shanel (talk • contribs) 00:23, 1 February 2007 (UTC).


 * The text from the school's website will have to go; it's a copyright violation. But, if you wrote the text about the football team yourself, that can stay. I thought that perhaps it was copied from an offline source or was on the school website at some point in time (as some copyvios are); my apologies.-- §hanel  00:46, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Fordham
I've been on the staff and written histories of aspects of Fordham. The address of Fordham for purposes of the postal service, taxes, real estate records, etc., is Fordham Road. The Ram plaque is on the "main drive" in from the Fordham Road gate. The records for all Fordham-related issues are under "fordham Road." The provincial's office was Fordham Road, and the main drive from Fordham Road leads to the front door oif the administration buildings. The entrance picture was originally for Fordham Hospital, now gone (which is where the parking lots now are). The fact that drivers to the school use that lot does not make it the official main entrance.HarvardOxon 02:41, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Peter Revson
Hi Anthony. Thanks for taking the trouble to add the picture of Peter Revson. Unfortunately the copyright for that picture still belongs to the photographer who took it, or possibly the magazine who may have bought the rights from him/her. Scanning the picture in does not constitute creating a new image, but copying an existing one. The GFDL license is therefore not appropriate as the rights to the picture are not yours to release. See Copyrights. 4u1e 07:33, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Image tagging
Please correct the license template you have used for all the images that you have scanned. The copyright belongs to the photographer/publisher, not you, so you don't have the rights to release it under GFDL. You have been warned before about this. Please cease uploading new images until your previous uploads have been corrected. If they aren't fixed, the images are subject to deletion. If you have any questions, leave a message for me on my talk page. Thanks and have a good day. --PS2pcGAMER (talk) 07:52, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Gravestone Fetish?
Hey Anthony22. I have to agree with Mowens35 and Oscar, all the grave pictures are a bit much. I was looking at the Gate of Heaven Cemetery page because most of my dead family members are buried there and you had added gravestone pictures too all of the famous people listed there. I then checked out what your other contributions were and it seems that you've done this to a lot of people. The point of an article is to talk about what made the person famous and why they are important. A headstone doesn't have to do with their life unless in the words of Mowens35, " A) the gravesite is extraordinary and of wide interest (i.e. architecturally, like the tomb of Warren G. Harding) or B) it is being used to illustrate the posthumous devotion of fans (i.e. Oscar Wilde or the Jim Morrison)" There's no need for pictures of gravestones on people who don't have famous gravesites. It's kinda creepy to have pictures of gravestones on people's pages when there aren't any pictures of them when they were living. I think from now on in the future, you probably shouldn't put up all of those pictures. I can see you live in Westchester and you like to take pictures of other things in Westchester. So why don't you continue to do that instead of taking anymore gravestone pictures. I won't remove the pictures that are already up. But if an Admin came along and saw the pictures, they might remove them because 1) they don't enhance the article or add to the understanding of the person 2) you don't need them for most people 3) It's kinda weird. I hope you understand. Hdog13 04:52, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi! I was preparing to move Image:01 Patterson grave.JPG to Wikimedia Commons so it can be used on other Wikimedia projects, but there is conflicting license information on the image page. You state that you release it under GFDL, but farther down you also state that you place it in the public domain. You can't do both as the concepts are mutually exclusive. Please remove one or the other of the license tags, and if you feel up to it, you can also move the image to the Commons so other projects can use it.

Observation: on Flegenheimer headstone image 'talk page'
This image shows small pebels/rocks on the headstone, three on the left (as well as some fallen into the grass) and one on the right.

Bob Marshall (wilderness activist)
Hi, Anthony, thanks for getting in touch. Your encounter with the camera Nazis sounds like what happened to me when I visited the British Library in London with my digital cam in hand; all I wanted was a picture of the only surviving manuscript of Beowulf, is that so much to ask? They kindly held my camera until I was ready to leave, sheesh.

Anyway, I'm readying Marshall's article for WP:GAN and hopefully WP:FAC, which is kind of a big deal, so that's why I'm particularly anal about things at the moment. The reason why the information about Marshall's burial is mentioned in past tense is so it can match with the rest of the section; to suddenly switch it to "Bob Marshall is buried" is grammatically awkward and incorrect. Although it is interesting and noteworthy that he is buried with the rest of his family, including one sister who eerily died at the same young age as he did, I think it's more important to stick to the established tense and note that he was buried next to his parents; what happened after, in present tense, doesn't exactly fit. I hope you don't mind me reverting back, and I do appreciate the input, but I want only the best for this article and for Marshall's legacy, nitpicky grammar and all. :) Take care and better luck visiting other historic cemeteries, María ( habla  con migo ) 23:44, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Ferncliff Cemetery and Aaliyah

Speedy deletion of Image:Jean harris 100.jpg
A tag has been placed on Image:Jean harris 100.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on  explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Thanks so much for photographing and uploading your pic for Saint Paul's Church National Historic Site.

If you have another pic or two from other angles, or inside, I would love to see those added, too.

A photo you took in 2006
Anthony, I have to delete the photo you took of the lake at the Kensico Cemetery, because "lake.jpg" is too generic a filename, and other people have uploaded completely different lake photos.

Don't worry, though - I'm going to re-upload it as "Lake at Kensico Cemetery.jpg" (unless you'd prefer it be called something else instead).

FYI:cheerleader image
Hi, Anthony22. I have some misgivings about the publication of your latest cheerleader photo, and I've asked for advice at Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard. --Orlady (talk) 16:28, 16 February 2009 (UTC)


 * No point in deleting the image -- unless and until someone more knowledgable than either of us says it needs to go. I posted on the noticeboard in hopes of getting some advice on the regarding policy on that kind of image, because I know that Wikimedia has sensitivities about stuff like that. I think it's probably OK, since the guideline at Commons seems to allow for photos taken in a public place, as long as the photos aren't uncomplimentary of the subject. --Orlady (talk) 00:13, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Find a Grave
Hi. I'd noticed you have added some to Find A Grave to some articles. That's perfectly fine, but I would like to encourage you to use the template for the site. This gives us consistent display of the site and also allows us to track which articles have links. If you would when you add the link, use this:. For Ed Gein, for instance, it would look like this:. The grave ID number is just after the "GRid=" in the link. You don't have to put anything else, it's all done by the template. Thanks so much. Wildhartlivie (talk) 21:56, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

Re: Tagging of Article on Iona Prep
Hello. I appreciate that you've added all the information to the article, but there are problems with it. An encyclopedia actually *can* cover too much information on one thing. What has happened on Iona's page is that there's paragraphs upon paragraphs on the football history. But it's not an article about Iona Prep Football. It's an article about the school. The amount of information on the football program dwarfs the rest of the article.

There's a horribly uneven slant towards their football teams. There's barely a passive mention of any of the other sports. The football sections are too long and contain way too much information. For example, the scores of every game in the seasons covered and in depth analyses is absolutely not necessary, and one could argue that it violates WP:ENC. The sections are written like essays to promote the school's program. The football section should be reduced to a few shorter paragraphs that mention the school's football history. The paragraphs also use sentences like "Tyrae Woodson-Samuels and Jeff Mack spearheaded one of the most prolific offenses in the history of the CHSFL as Iona Prep steamrollered undefeated through 12 consecutive games.", which uses words that only make the history sound nicer and makes the article look pretty (bolded), and even uses a peacock term (which is italicized). I believe that the football sections need to be completely rewritten so that they're entirely neutral and are completely encyclopedic.

I understand that you don't feel qualified to add history on the other sections, that's why I added the tags, so that other editors could add such information. You're not the only editor that frequents the page, I'm sure.  Acro X   17:09, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

re: Photograph of Bob Marshall burial site
I'm sorry that you disapprove of my previous edit in which I removed File:Bob Marshall Burial Site 1000.jpg from Bob Marshall (wilderness activist), but may I remind you to assume good faith? My edit was not vandalism, nor was it in any way intended as malicious. I admit that I did not consider the technical difficulties that you may have had in obtaining such an image; rather, I was concerned with its lack of aesthetic appeal in an article that is already sufficiently illustrated. I fail to see why two images are required to illustrate Marshall's final resting place, when most biographies rarely have one. While removing this image, I kept the one of his tombstone (obviously the most important of the two), and added a free image of Marshall himself elsewhere in the article. With both images in the "Later efforts and sudden death" section, it looks crowded. The main reason for its removal, however, is that the image is incredibly dark, practically covered in shadow, and its subject only becomes clear when one clicks on it. Even then it's very difficult to read what's on the tombstones. In short, I question its ability to enhance the article or add to the understanding of the subject matter, which is what images should do.

As you can see, my edit was not "indiscriminate"; quite the opposite. It would have been impossible for me to explain my reasons for removing the image in an edit summary, which is why I used the benign term "cleaning up pictures" instead. I still don't believe it warrants inclusion in the article, which has obtained Featured Article status and must therefore maintain a high quality. Whether it remains or not, the image is included at the Commons, where any Wikipedia project may find and use it. Your work remains. I hope you reconsider the addition of this particular image, but either way thank you for contacting me with your concerns. María ( habla con migo ) 12:59, 28 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your reply, Anthony. I'm aware of a photographer's inability to change the circumstances of the scene they're photographing, and I didn't mean my above comments to insult your abilities as a photographer, so please don't take this personally.  I'm commenting on the image, not you.  As it is, the image is difficult to make out and therefore does not add to the article.  As for the newest addition, I found it on the Forest Service's website, but I'm fairly sure it was included in Glover's biography.  There are tons of photos I've found via searches that I would love to include in articles, as well, but copyright is always an issue, I agree. María ( habla  con migo ) 13:35, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Bust of Jacob K. Javits at Javits Convention Center.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Bust of Jacob K. Javits at Javits Convention Center.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:34, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Gyrofrog (talk) 05:25, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes 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. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

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 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) 04:58, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

can you helpout?
You seem to know alot about the Westchester area. And more specifically New Rochelle. There have been many many articles about new rochelle that have been deleted by a editor on this site and these deletions do not appear to be productive or fair. I would say that as many as 30 articles about new ro have been deleted and i think as many as 30 more about westchester have as well (by the same editor). Would you have any ability to help replace these articles as they are historic and/or factual and relevant to the city at its current time? It would be nice to fix this so that the data can be available for the community at large. Here are just some of the articles:

•	SHELDRAKE LAKE •	HUGUENOT YACHT CLUB •	DICKERMANS POND •	GOOSE ISLAND •	PINE ISLAND •	TRAVERS ISLAND •	DAVENPORT'S NECK •	FIVE ISLANDS PARK •	BEECHMONT •	BAYBERRY •	BONNIECREST •	RESIDENCE PARK •	HUDSON PARK •	PEA ISLAND •	ECHO BAY •	ECHO ISLAND •	HARRISON ISLAND •	TANK ISLAND •	BETH EL TEMPLE •	WARD ACRES •	NATHAN BARRETT •	DAVENPORT NECK •	NEW ROCHELLE TENNIS CLUB •	NEW ROCHELLE ROWING CLUB •	NEW ROCHELLE PUBLIC LIBRARY •	PREMIUM POINT, NEW ROCHELLE •	NEW ROCHELLE BLACKBERRY (LAWTON BLACKBERRY) •	ISAAC E YOUNG MIDDLE SCHOOL •	AVALON ON THE SOUND •	AVALON ON THE SOUND EAST •	THE KAUFMAN BUILDING •	COOPERS CORNERS •	MIDDLETOWN •	LATHERS WOODS •	WINYAH •	PREMIUM POINT •	TITUS MILL POND •	CARPENTERS POND

Westchester articles that are gone include:

•	LAWRENCE PARK (BRONXVILLE) •	WAYSIDE COTTAGE (SCARSDALE) •	BRONXVILLE POST OFFICE •	MOUNT VERNON POST OFFICE •	HARRISON POST OFFICE •	MASTERSON DUSENBERRY HOUSE (BRONXVILLE) •	BRONXVILLE WOMENS CLUB •	BRONX RIVER PARKWAY RESERVATION •	Bedford Road Historic District •	Bedford Village Historic District •	MARBLE SCHOOLHOUSE (EASTCHESTER) •	JOHN STEVENS HOUSE (MOUNT VERNON) •	BOLTON PRIORY (PELHAM MANOR) •	EDGEWOOD HOUSE (PELHAM MANOR) •	PELHAMDALE (PELHAM MANOR) •	BAR BUILDING (WHITE PLAINS)

Here are some articles that have been substantially detracted from with unnecessary removal of content:

•	PELHAM ISLANDS •	GLEN ISLAND •	BAR BUILDING (WHITE PLAINS) •	NEPTUNE ISLAND •	WILDCLIFF •	LELAND CASTLE •	NEW ROCHELLE POST OFFICE •	PIONEER BUILDING (NEW ROCHELLE) •	THOMAS PAINE COTTAGE •	DAVENPORT HOUSE •	TRINITY ST.PAULS EPISCOPALIAN CHURCH (NEW RO) •	FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH AND LEWIS PINTARD HOUSE (NEW RO) •	NEW ROC CITY

Maybe you can help see whatsup with all this deletion and Bing.com offers a glimpse into the missing articles just by searching new rochelle and also newrochellenews.info has alot of reference material.

Find A Grave links and "minor" edits
Hello. Please stop adding links to the site Find A Grave. This site has repeatedly been determined to fail both WP:RS and WP:EL criteria and should not be added. You seem to be doing it a lot, so I thought I should let you know.

We have had problems with people from the site Find A Grave coming here and purposefully adding their site everywhere. Many editors see it as a form of mass spamming.

Furthermore, please stop putting the m for minor tag on your edits when you are adding content. That's not what the tag is for. Using it that way is highly misleading. Some people automatically hide all minor edits from their watchlist, and by marking your non-minor edits as minor you are making it difficult for people to see what you are doing. I hope that was only a mistake. DreamGuy (talk) 19:50, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

File:Charles E. Wilson Mausoleum February 2012.JPG
Any chance you can add the date of this memorial? Can we assume 1972? As a 3D artwork, photography of it for WP is not allowed under the current US copyright laws, but they only apply post 1990. If it's pre 1990, also need to add the correct template when it gets moved to commons - see Freedom_of_panorama  Ron h jones (Talk) 21:15, 8 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, I don't know the date of construction of any mausoleums. I would imagine that the cemetery office would have knowledge and access to this information. I have uploaded many images of mausoleums to Wikipedia, and this is the first time that I've ever had a request for a date of construction. I am fairly certain that the Wilson mausoleum predates 1990. Anthony22 (talk) 21:31, 8 February 2012 (UTC)


 * I would assume it must be close to his death. I thought you might know a date. No problem, we'll just say 1972. And you may well get asked for more in future as all free images are being moved off of en-Wiki, hopefully by the end of 2013 - and commons will need to know the date of modern 3D artwork constructions.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Dutchess County Fair at Rhinebeck, NY, August 2012.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:Dutchess County Fair at Rhinebeck, NY, August 2012.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ruby Goldstein, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ABC (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I come bearing definitions
Porter: "a person employed to carry luggage and other loads". However, "bearers" is fine, especially if it's used in the film. I just didn't like them being called "girls". Clarityfiend (talk) 23:10, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Yvette Vickers
I know it's in the source but what is your personal reasoning behind including the street name of where Vickers lived? I'm of two minds about being so specific. Dismas |(talk) 13:23, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

I see no harm in being specific. The location of Marilyn Monroe's death and Lou Gehrig's death is shown in their respective Wikipedia articles. I became interested in Yvette Vickers after I just watched Attack of the 50 Foot Woman on Turner Classic Movies. She was a good actress and a hot Playboy Playmate. It's really sad how she died.

Anthony22 (talk) 13:38, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Anthony Judging by the comments at the top of the page, I thought that some drastic editing was needed. However you obviously hold this page of high value so I won't get in your way. I agree though with the criticism that the football information is too long and it does read like an advertisement for the school. I am a graduate of the the Prep and admire the school and alums a great deal. Your feedback is appreciated and I will put back the info on Renzie Lamb and a few other notable alums.

Audrey Meadows
Audrey was born in NYC, unlike her elder sister, Jayne, as per this footnote, gleaned from Ancestry.com:"Audrey Cotter was born in New York City in 1922, not in China as has been commonly stated. A 1921 passenger list shows the family entering the United States from China via Vancouver (S.S. Empress of Russia arriving at Vancouver from Shanghai, July 10, 1921). A 1927 passenger list shows Audrey's birthplace as New York (S.S. Olympic, arriving at New York from Southamption, May 3, 1927). The 1930 U.S. census, listing the family in Providence, Rhode Island, also shows Audrey's birthplace as New York City and her age as 8 years old in April  1930, which also confirms 1922 as her year of birth."

 * Anthony: Of course, discrepancies arrive and sometimes are not easy to settle which leads to footnotes or endnotes detailing conflicting information. I certainly do not go by Find-a-Grave as a rule, however U.S. government records: census, travel manifests/itineraries, Social Security Death Index records, etc. are generally reliable, and incomparably superior to IMDb, Find-a-Grave, or hearsay.

Notables MUST have sources
Whether its this edit for Cassville, Missouri or this one for List of people from Newark, New Jersey, WP:LISTPEOPLE requires that notables added to a list within an article must include a reliable and verifiable source establishing a connection between the person and the place. If you knew that the person was connected to the place based on the source, simply add the same source to the article. If there was no source in the original article for the person, adding the individual to the article risks propogating incorrect information. Please feel free to contact me on my talk page with any questions. Alansohn (talk) 15:27, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
 * This edit to the article for Wall Township, New Jersey added Gil McDougald as a notable, with no source provided. Per WP:LISTPEOPLE, all entired in such lists must have articles and must have reliable and verifiable sources establishing their connection to the place. If you knew that the person was connected to the place based on a source, simply add the same source to the article. If there was no source for the person that you used as the basis for the addition, adding the individual to the article risks propogating incorrect information. Please ensure that all future edits adding notables to lists in articles include the required sources and feel free to contact me here or on my talk page with any questions about how to add the required sources. Any future unsourced additions may be removed and may be treated as vandalism. Alansohn (talk) 15:55, 23 July 2013 (UTC)

good work on Lewie aka Kareem
Hello Anthony, you can call me 74. Noticed your work adding the info about the Tower of Power, thanks. I went ahead and added your sentence back in, with the URL you cited. Here is what I did:


 * EDITING
 * This earned him a nickname &mdash; "The tower from Power."

And here is what it looks like:


 * READING
 * This earned him a nickname &mdash; "The tower from Power."

No need to be all fancy, though. Any time you want to use a URL to cite something, you can do it like this:


 * EDITING#2 The sky is blue.
 * EDITING#2 The sky is blue.

Which looks like this:


 * READING#2 The sky is blue.
 * READING#2 The sky is blue.

That is pretty much how I usually do it. Hope this helps, and thanks much for improving wikipedia. Feel free to drop me a note on my talkpage if you ever need anything, or if you want fast answers to quick questions, I highly recommend the friendly folks at WP:TEAHOUSE. p.s. Very jealous you got to be there in the 1960s to see it all. :-)   Talk to you later. &mdash; 74.192.84.101 (talk) 23:10, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
