South Kentucky College
Hi PigeonChickenFish, thank you for your work on the draft. Where did you find the sources? I did do a search but did not come up with much so either my search was subpar (which could be) or you checked somewhere I did not. Just trying to get better so any tips/tricks are appreciated.

 * hello! I think this was difficult to search for because of the three different names used. I started with "South Kentucky College" (then later would try the other names) and I initially looked at google search, google news, google books, and newspapers.com - making sure to use the term I was searching was in quotation marks. I hope that helps! PigeonChickenFish (talk) 19:37, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks PigeonChickenFish. I only did the searches through the Wikipedia Library which did not include newspapers.com and did not do the googles because I assumed FloridaArmy already covered those and didn't want to duplicate efforts (not saying FA did not do it, but simply the reason I skipped those).  FA did a great job getting the draft off the ground and you did a great job expanding it.  I just felt bad about my initial decline.  Thanks again. S0091 (talk) 19:55, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
 * no worries! I don’t think the draft was not initially ready for the mainspace either, it needed more development. Wikipedia Library is a great resource to use but I have found the search function doesn’t work well. Also newspapers.com you can access through WPL.

 * Unless something has changed, newspapers requires a separate login and my access expired so I just used the "normal" stuff and yes, I agree the search functions across the various resources is "tricky" but so glad to have it and I am sure you are as well.
 * If you are not familiar with FA's work, their drafts are generally not well-developed. With that said, the work they do is meaningful because they cover underrepresented subjects.  FA probably pumps out at least ten drafts a week, if not more (they have about 75 waiting for review).  I saw your note on their talk page offering assistance and I can say without a doubt, they need it. S0091 (talk) 21:42, 13 September 2022 (UTC)

 * I am sorry for any confusion! I thought I was working in the draft space, when I realized I wasn’t I draft-ified the article.PigeonChickenFish (talk) 02:01, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
