 * click on this -> Tutorial/Citing sources

Thank you. The following article has been created for the artist (Richard Wyatt, Jr.), who I've been trying to add to a "List of African-American Visual Artists" and "African-American Artists": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Wyatt,_Jr.

I'm his daughter so this will definitely be a conflict of interest. However, if I gather up articles and books that have been written on him, can I send them to you please? If they are notable references, can you please add him to the above lists and any other relevant lists regarding American Artists, African-American Art, and African-American Artists? I'm still reviewing everything you provided earlier, which is tremendous help. Thank you once again! Have a Happy New Year!! HollywoodJazz (talk) 01:08, 31 December 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Timtrent. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Fairfax High School (Los Angeles), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. 🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 22:06, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
