Hello, I am trying to edit "Nina E. Allender" with a reference to a new book. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nina_E._Allender

I tried to add a section, Other sources, and then the reference }} I had a name for the reference (Frishman), but Wikipedia said it had not been used in references. No luck with numerous attempts, so I made no edits.

Caleb Barns
HiYour article Charles Edward Barns appeared in the new articles section on WikiProject Wisconsin. The article is well research. I noticed Caleb Barns was mentioned. I was using the same source- the Proceedings of State Bar of Wisconsin for a different Wisconsin legislator. Therefore, I started an article about Caleb P. Barns who served in the Wisconsin State Assembly. You may want to look at it and even add to the article. Many thanks-RFD (talk) 18:42, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi-the Charles Edward Barns article appeared in the new articles section on WikiProject Wisconsin. I am not sure how it was released. Please feel free to add materials to the Caleb Barns article. Thanks-RFD (talk) 19:05, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Wisconsin Blue Book - Caleb Barns
Hi I check the Wisconsin Blue Books about Caleb Barns. After Wisconsin was admitted to the union in 1848, the first Wisconsin Blue Book came out in 1853. In 1860 the next Wisconsin Blue Book was published and after that it was published on a regular basis. I added a citation about the members of the Wisconsin Legislature 1848-1999 and Caleb Barns' surname was spelled: Barnes. I am going try to track down the records for the 1850&1855 Wisconsin Legislatures to see how Caleb Barns spelt his last name. When Wisconsin was admitted to the union-the Wisconsin Senate was elected for 2 years & the Assembly was elected every year. This was changed to 4 and 2 years respectively in the 1880s by constitutional amendment and has been the same since. Many thanks-RFD (talk) 19:24, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Gerald Evan Williams


The article Gerald Evan Williams has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Does not appear to meet WP:GNG or bio notability, certainly not MILBIO

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Peacemaker67 (send... over) 10:03, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
 * G'day, I have had a further look at the article and have asked for a few extra pairs of eyes and opinions from the MILHIST community at WT:MILHIST before I submit the article for WP:AfD. I suggest you look in on the comments over the next few days to see what other MILHIST editors are thinking. The issue is not about whether the good Colonel is deserving, he was obviously a brave man. Wikipedia doesn't determine notablity based on who is deserving, it bases inclusion on notability guidelines. It may be that the Colonel meets them, but ultimately the community will decide.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Caleb P. Barns, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Republican and Whig (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Caleb Barns
Hi-I am looking at the Wisconsin Blue Book 2007-2008 right now. That Wisconsin Blue Book has a feature article about the Wisconsin State Legislature. It was has a table of the people who served in the Wisconsin Legislature 1847-2007. On pg. 212 Caleb Barns was listed as serving in the Wisconsin State Assembly 1850 and 1855. Until 1882, the Wisconsin Senators were elected 2 years and the Wisconsin Assembly once every year. In 1881-1882, a series of constitutional amedments were ratified that change the terms of office and the year the Wisconsin constitutional officers were elected. The Wisconsin Senatewas change to 4 years; the Wisconsin Assembly 2 years. It is the same today. It was not until 1970 that the Wisconsin Governor was elected for 4 years. Until then it was 2 years for the governor and other Wisconsin costitutional officers. Caleb Barns served 2 one year terms in the Wisconsin State Assembly in 1850 and 1855-the electoral system that was in effect at the time. Many thanks-RFD (talk) 20:20, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
I thought I was signed in when I edited Bungay. Instead my IP address was shown. I clicked undo and then resubmitted my additions. The IP address still is there. Can it be removed?Maineshepp (talk) 22:34, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Yep, it sure can; I've removed it for you. In the future, should this kind of thing happen again, the quickest way to get a response is to contact the oversight team through the email form; just let them know that you accidentally edited while logged out, giving them the name of the article (direct links to the edits themselves is also helpful), and they can take care of it for you.

Formatting impaired
I added a new section, and the heading and 2-col formatting of references disappeared.

Also, when citing news articles, which category is for the newspaper's title?

 * There was a misformatted reference. I've corrected it.  Also, it's better to use a Wikilink rather than a URL when mentioning an encyclopedia page in your comments. —&#160;&#160;  &#160;&#160;Bill W.&#160;&#160;  &#160;&#160; (Talk)&#160;&#160;(Contrib)&#160;&#160; (User:Wtwilson3) &#160;&#160;— 14:51, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Adding new reference Nina E. Allender
Hello, I am trying to edit "Nina E. Allender" with a reference to a new book. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nina_E._Allender I tried to add a section, "Other sources," and then the reference '''Frishman, Ronny (2020). Nina Allender Suffrage Cartoonist. Fairfield, CA:: Dragonfeather Books. p. 26. ISBN 978-1-949290-47-9'''

I had a name for the reference (Frishman), but Wikipedia said it had not been used in references. No luck with numerous attempts, so I made no edits.
