Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes
Hi. It looks like you are doing some great work on the Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes article. But could you take note of a few things.

Wikipedia is a collaborative encyclopaedia. It is not a work by a single, identified author. So please do not include references to "the author", or "we" or "I" in the article. The reader has no idea who these people are.

Even if the reader did know who these people are, they have no idea whether their thoughts are in any way accurate or authoritative. All they have is the name of some anonymous person on the internet. This is why Wikipedia, like all encyclopaedias needs to cite references. Please read this guide here and cite what you are adding. Noting that you have seen documents, or spoken to people, is simply not good enough and is not verifiable, a core policy for Wikipedia.

Wikipedia never publishes original research. Basically that means that everything written needs to be first said elsewhere. It cannot be your own research, thoughts or conclusions based on what you have seen, read or heard, no matter how thorough and accurate you believe your work to be. For instance; if something is missing or lost, then you need a source that says this. It can't simply be because you personally can't find it.

The way you are displaying tables on the article is messy simply and will not work for many people. Please read this guide on how to create proper tables.

Lastly, you might want to consider splitting things into separate articles for different branches of the organisation. Currently, for an organisation based in Britain, it seems rather unbalanced in its coverage of New Zealand. It could be better moving the New Zealand stuff to something like Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes in New Zealand, and summarising what it says in the main article.

I know it takes a little while to fully understand what works best on Wikipedia. Please don't be put off contributing! Thanks. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 10:14, 9 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi.
 * Thanks for the help and advice.
 * I am only getting to know the ropes of internet webpages etc. Do not expect me to be a master of these hidden arts all at once.
 * There never was a website for the Buffalo Museum. All of its documents have been destroyed.
 * There is a lot of material in the old magazines.
 * I want to include a list of the early lodges. I am unfamiliar with making tables but will give it a go.
 * I take the point of citing references.
 * I am unfamiliar with how to create a new page solely for the Buffs NZ Side of things.
 * I will keep working on it.
 * Thanks for the advice and corrections. Maybe you can help me with those aspects i am unfamiliar with?
 * Regards

 * The guide to citing explain how to cite publications. They don't have to be websites.  If you like, you can continue working on the main article, and I will move the detail of the New Zealand information to a new article later. -- Escape Orbit  (Talk) 09:24, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Escape
 * I suppose that because of the volume of information regarding R.A.O.B. that there should be pages per region of the globe. These should be linked to the main article and available publicly. The question is how to do this. New Zealand is closely connected with Australia, and the Pacific and Asia. Or should the main page simply be divided with individual section headers?
 * Regards
