Mary Cain
There is a discussion going on at Talk:Mary C. Cain regarding the naming or renaming of the article Mary Cain that you created. I suggest you might want to be part of that discussion. Trackinfo (talk) 16:05, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

Mississippi legislators
(Copied over from FloridaArmy talkpage. Feel free to remove, it's your talkpage!) Hi, FA. I run Against All Odds, a website documenting Black legislators in Mississippi during and just after Reconstruction. I noticed that you created a bunch of Wiki articles about these men, often using my site as a source - thank you! I was wondering how you got involved adding them. Personal interest, some other way? A colleague and I are working on an article about using Wikidata and other methods to increase discoverability for the men on my site, and we'd love to include the story of your involvement through adding them on Wikipedia. Please email me (dbaldwin at library dot msstate dot edu) if you'd be willing to share! Thanks again for all the work you do here. DeeDee (talk) 15:56, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi DeeDee. It's a real pleasure to make your acquaintance. I'm a HUGE admirer or your work. FYI, I started Draft:DeeDee Baldwin.
 * I enjoy history and correcting the often widespread misinformation that passes as history. Filling in the facts and features helps uncover and enlighten. Thanks for all your terrific work!!! Part of the to-do list I'm trying to collaborate on here is at Draft:Missing Pieces (forcibly moved to my userspace against my wishes, but the link works).
 * I was curious about the white Republicans (also the Democrats who fought tooth and nail for "redemption") who served with the African Americans, and wondered if you think the scope of inclusion needs to be widened? I understand the focus where you have it, but I wonder if ultimately segregating the history leaves too much out and continues some of the Dunningesque misrepresentations. Anyway, so happy to be in touch with you please let me know if I can be of any help. User:KylieTastic and others have done the heavy lifting in expanding and filling out details on the details on these subjects. Incidentally, WikiProject Women in Red might interest you. I will email you when I have some time. Have a great weekend. FloridaArmy (talk) 16:41, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I think User:SusunW, User:Megalibrarygirl, User:Star Mississippi, and User:PamD would be great contacts for you as well as possible interview subjects who are far more knowledgeable about the ins and outs of Wikipedia than I am. I hope you can get in touch with them or maybe they can say hello to you. I am happy to be among many wonderful editors and people doing so much wonderful work.

 * THanks @FloridaArmy for the ping and pleased to meet you @Edeainfj. Happy to talk with you and your team further. It's such important work to document their legacies. Star   Mississippi  15:41, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi! I'm happy to talk to anyone as well. My focus is more on women, especially ones involved with suffrage and social justice work. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 18:11, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * My real life is crazy hectic right now. I mainly love the puzzle of research and write about intersectional women activists, typically outside the US (I live in southern Mexico). I am not remotely technically oriented, unless it has to do with researching some obscure person or fact. "How to use Wikidata" is way outside my abilities. That said, I know a lot of people on here who have skills and might have connections that could help. SusunW (talk) 13:47, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
