John M. Fessenden copy edit ...
Greetings Slambo ... I see that you did some copy edits on the John M. Fessenden article. I thank you for your efforts to improve the article... Some of the improvements I understand as the grammar in the civil engineering material was bad and confusing ... I made some minor edits to further clean up the article to get it to a good read ... but I am curious why the article warranted the citation needed tag? I could have cited every sentence but I thought was an overkill. The Cullen and Fisher sources had all the materials ... What you recommend to address your concerns?... Later .. I found some additional bio material on Fessenden so I rewrote the sections and added more references. I propose to remove the citation banner in 30 days ... Thanks

 * The level of citation is very good now, with a couple of very strong source citations. I added the banner originally because there were only two sources listed in the references; it was the quantity of reliable source materials that was the problem for me.  Someone as significant as this person has to have more than just two sources for research, as you have proven by adding more.  Waiting 30 days isn't necessary to remove the banner so I've removed it.  Source citation banners don't follow quite as strict guidelines as deletion banners.  There are just a couple small citation problems remaining, with one book citation missing a page number and one journal citation missing an article title (both are now marked).
 * You've made some fine improvements to the article, and I look forward to seeing more improvements like this. Thanks!
