Quotations
"Quotations" sections aren't used, but individual quotes are accepted. Example:

Through a 2002 San Francisco Chronicle interview, Jamison revealed his interest with science began at an early age.

An example of the quotation box's appearance is Bill Watterson. Thanks for your contributions!

Filmography section on Maria Newman
Hi, thank you for your recent article. I have performed some general cleanup of it, and I would just like to inform you that the info in the filmography section needs to be converted to a table. Please use the link that is in the big orange cleanup box in that section for instructions.

Additonally, a huge chunk of your article is without references. Please add some to the sections that are unsourced, or the info may be challenged and removed, per WP:V and WP:BLP.

Thanks, Insulam Simia (talk) 19:58, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi Insulam Simia,

Thank you for your edits and your recommendations. I will follow your lead on this. I have a question. They removed both of our photos. What is it that was missing that needed additional citation? Perhaps I made an error. I was a bit confused about how the citation should be noted. I am new to this format and still learning the ropes. Appreciate your feedback and direction.

Thank you. CJBlevins C. J. Blevins (talk) 14:32, 15 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Nearly everything. In a perfect world, it'd be nice to see a reference per sentence. Also the photo was removed because there was no permission.
 * Oh, and sorry for the late reply. Insulam Simia (talk) 14:59, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your response, Insulam.

So you are saying that every sentence needs to be referenced? I thought I left references for each area and on the listings and that there was only a required 3 references. I misunderstood...being a newbie at this. I will have to go through and clean this up and add more references. Am I at least citing them correctly?

On the photos, we have permission, but perhaps I didn't cite it correctly. Can you advise?

Thank you. CJBlevins C. J. Blevins (talk) 10:12, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry I don't understand what you mean above (I thought I left references for each area and on the listings and that there only a required 3 references), but all that I can recommend is to add more references to sections completely unsourced. You are citing correctly however.
 * On the photo, see WP:DONATE. Also you say "we"; do you work with Maria? We strongly discourage editing things that you may be associated with. Sorry for the late reply. Thanks, Insulam Simia (talk · contribs) 08:09, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi Insulam... No worries. I appreciate your feedback and attention. In response to your inquiry...my bad, by "we", I meant my associate - I think though I may have figured that out. I have been a big fan of the Newman family of musicians/composers for a long time, and have studied her father's works as well as her cousin, Randy. I have only had the pleasure of meeting Maria in person at a couple of performances a couple of years ago. Once I read the Alfred Newman page, I thought it was an injustice that she didn't have her own page as the rest of her siblings. She is a renown composer in her own right, as well as a virtuoso violinist/pianist and composer and performs regularly. She's also written over 200 compositions, not including her movie listings. One composition won a Pulitzer Prize. I do understand the rules though as you cite. I hope I meet the standards. I've wanted to contribute for a long time, but never felt passionately about it, until this page.

Thank you. CJBlevins C. J. Blevins (talk) 1:50, 28 August 2013 (UTC)   C. J. Blevins (talk)
 * Yes okay that's fine, you meet the rules. Will you be donating the file (per WP:DONATE)? Insulam Simia (talk · contribs) 14:56, 4 September 2013 (UTC)


 * I want to do everything correctly for this article, and appreciate your guidance on these issues. I did make a donation via WP:DONATE and happy to do so.  Please let me know if there are other protocols I need to do for the article.  I'm sorry for being such a "newbie".  I have a couple of other articles I hope to contribute as well.  I'm really enjoying learning this process.  Thank you so much for your replies and feedback.  CJBlevins  C. J. Blevins (talk) 13:16, 4 September 2013 (UTC)   C. J. Blevins (talk)
 * Well, as I said above, there needs to be more references, as whole sections are completely unreferenced. As well as of course the fact that the filmography section needs to be converted to a table (see Help:Tables). Insulam Simia (talk · contribs) 17:01, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Very sorry for the belated response. I'm definitely working on it, and think I have a better understanding now.  I just cleaned up the recommended are with tables, and am re-writing ares of content with more references. I will be posting more changes soon.  Thank you for all your help and support, as well as your patience with my wiki newbie-ness. :-)  CJBlevins  C. J. Blevins (talk) 23:43, 8 October 2013 (UTC)   C. J. Blevins (talk)


 * Still working on the page at Maria Newman. I also submitted photos for submission a while back.  That said, I also have another page I had been working on the sandbox, but have an existing "draft" sandbox of it that was my "work copy" at the time, but I would like to delete it, so that it's the main page of my sandbox.  I already deleted the MN sandbox.  Please advise?  More updates will be posted soon.  Thank you for all your help and support, as well as your patience. :-)  CJBlevins  C. J.
