Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Harriet Hallowell, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. CaroleHenson (talk) 06:00, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

I started the original Wikipedia page on Harriet Hallowell. I have no interest in rehashing previously published material. I am a family member of Harriet Hallowell, and I can assure you that everything I wrote was true. Much of what I fixed were your typos. I corrected the name of the hospital using stationery from the actual hospital with a letter on it from Harriet Hallowell's Aunt Sara, dating from the period in question. Congestion is a dated term, so I translated it into modern language. Any number of sources will confirm that the Nazis starved the French population, and family accounts of Harriet's troubles in France during WWII corroborate it. How is it that someone can "take over" a page?
