Hi everyone, I'm Kbeer1. I am a Chicago resident, but I am originally from the South (Georgia/West Virginia hybrid). I am an Anthropology and Library and Information Science Master's student at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. In my free time I read, practice bass, and sew. I am hoping to contribute as much as possible to this project, especially in terms of comics and their intersection with the United States military.
You are doing great. When you've finished the tutorials, pick a historian or other topic off the GLAM page. You can use the Anthony Beevor page and talk page as a template. for viaf numbers, see: viaf.org
Good luck! TeriEmbrey ( talk) 18:14, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi
TeriEmbrey! I am finishing up for the day so though I think I could add a bit more to the page I was working on (
Charles Lipson) I made sure to tie up the loose ends. I was a little hung up on some formatting for a moment, but I think I have it down now! Hopefully I am on the right track and I will see you next week!

Hello, I'm . An edit you recently made to Charles Lipson seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jeffrd10 ( talk) 20:12, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
Hey Kbeer-- welcome to the crazy and wonderful place that is the English Wikipedia. I'm Jethro, a fellow volunteer at the Pritzker and mentor to the Wikipedians in Residence there. I was reading over your interest in comics (perhaps war comics?) and their intersection with U.S. military history-- really interesting direction to go that we haven't really touched on yet at the PMML! Also, nice article on Charles Lipson so far. One thing I'd recommend looking into is transitioning away from using external links [in brackets] and trying to use citations to source specific information in the article. If you're able to get started on that on your own, that's great, but if not, I can walk you through that when I come in next week. Feel free to ask me any questions on my talk page if you need help with anything! I, JethroBT drop me a line 19:26, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi TeriEmbrey! I warmed up by creating a listing for a WWI song from the GLAM page list (" Oui, Oui, Marie"). I am moving on to a comic now. The Cord A. Scott book mentions quite a few so I am going to try and work on some that we have here in Special Collections. Is it okay to go into Special Collections or do I need assistance? Thank you!

Since you have been working on comics and songs, please add these tags as appropriate:
Comics Unassessed | |||||||
|
Songs Unassessed | |||||||

(You may need to edit source to see the actual tags.)
This lets others who are also working on songs and comics know about these pages. TeriEmbrey ( talk) 14:56, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
Great job on the new articles yesterday!

Hello! Your submission of Template:Did you know nominations/Shackleton: Antarctic Odyssey at the Did You Know nominations page is not complete; see step 3 of the nomination procedure. If you do not want to continue with the nomination, tag the nomination page with {{ db-g7}}, or ask a DYK admin. Thank you. DYKHousekeepingBot ( talk) 19:49, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
You say on your nomination: "I still have to review another nomination and will post this here once it's done." I thought I should mention that, according to the rules, "New nominators (those with fewer than five DYK credits) are exempt from this review requirement". If you want to do a review that's great, and I certainly don't want to discourage you from doing so, but you are exempt from the requirement. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 19:57, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
Hello! Your submission of Shackleton: Antarctic Odyssey at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know!

On 19 November 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Shackleton: Antarctic Odyssey, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Shackleton: Antarctic Odyssey was published just before the 100th anniversary of the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1914 on which it was based? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Shackleton: Antarctic Odyssey. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |
