Hello, I'm Toddst1. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Carol Royle, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Louise Schilthuis
Hi as you have not referenced your change to Lubbina Schilthuis I am asking for it to be reverted. Quetzal1964 (talk) 06:51, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi Quetzal1964, references: birth certificate Lubbina Schilthuis, education 1883-1884 Rijksuniversiteit Groningen (Lubiena), appointment to conservatrix (= curator) in Staatscourant, 1887 (Lubina). Louise appears to be a misspelling in later publications from the 20th century. She is not Belgian. Schilthuis is a Groningen name, not Flemish (Brabant) or Walloon.Leopard (talk) 10:26, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I think she is better known as Louise. The article has been moved but I have edited it to give the alternative name and your ref on her appointment to the post of curator at the Utrecht museum. Do you have a ref for her death too? She gave the specific name mariae to at least one species and I wonder if that was in memory and honour of her mother.Quetzal1964 (talk) 18:35, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
 * She appears to have married Antonie Johan Paulus Meijjes, which seems to have ended her career, and had children, her husband died in 1923. She died in Velt, which I assume is a part of The Hague.Quetzal1964 (talk) 19:10, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, she married A.J.P. Meijjes in 1899, her career ended problably a couple of years earlier for some reason. Lubbina’s father dies on 13 June 1906. According to Algemeen Handelsblad Lubbina dies on 27 January 1951 at Van Stolkweg 23, The Hague, not Velt, her sister Catharina Coenradina lived and died in Velp, Gelderland. Do you know who first called her Louise? And who said she is Belgian? Leopard (talk) 22:44, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I thought it might have been Boulenger but he called her Mde Schilthuis.Quetzal1964 (talk) 18:47, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
 * She might be better known as Louise, but I see no evidence that she ever used that name herself. She was born and died as Lubbina. Unfortunately, she doesn't use her first name in full in the 2 known publications. Her first name Lubbina is quite uncommon, even in Groningen, I think. Maybe someone has misinterpreted her name in handwriting. We would do better not to adopt that incorrect interpretation. Leopard (talk) 09:28, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
