From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nolelover,

Today you commented that my proposed article End Time Overcomers was not a suitable topic to be a Wikipedia article. I saw on another page that you are a member of a Wiki Christian group, so I appreciate that your comment is not based from an anti-Christian bias.

Do you have any suggestions how I can modify the article to make it a suitable Wikipedia topic?

Thanks,

You are a teen. You have stated that my submission was rejected. I disagree with you. Another reviewer stated that my submission failed to provide citations to newspapers. Archives of newspapers fr0om 1938 - 1955 are practically impossible to find, but that statement is not correct — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.86.32.16 ( talk) 20:18, 18 February 2012 (UTC) reply

LINCOLN UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW, 1938 - 1955

You are a teen. You have stated that my submission was rejected. I disagree with you. Another reviewer, MABDUL, agreed with your assessment and reasoned that my submission failed to provide citations to newspapers. Although archives of newspapers from 1938 - 1955 are practically impossible to find, the fact is that newspaper articles are cited in the article. A reference to H.T. Lockard is the Memphis Commercial Appeal. A reference for Scovel Richardson is another newspaper article from that time period. Please do not think that I am boasting or condescending toward you because I am not. I am 60 years old, a lawyer, a college graduate (magna cum laude), law school graduate and a member of two state bar associations. I have traveled to Europe on two occasions. I consider myself fairly well read and knowledgeable on many things. I am intelligent enough to know that there is an immense amount that I do not know. It is astonishing to me that a teenager could assume that my submission is inadequate. If you are a "child prodigy" please accept my sincere apology. Have you looked at the successfully submitted article on the Robert E. Howard Museum? That is, uh, really noteworthy. My opinion is that as a teen, you lack a historical perspective. This is not meant to be a harmful or accusatory criticism; but instead, common sense. Bold textWhile I appreciate your effort in reviewing the article, I must disagree with your implied suggestion to expand on the topic within the article on Lincoln University of Missouri. The history of the School of Law entailed many factual matters pointing ti its "separateness" from Lincoln University of Missouri: it was in a separate location; it was created at a date much later than the mother institution, it was a professional school whereas the university offered baccalaureate degrees only,it was created during the Jim Crow era in order to avoid integration of the White and Black races, and it ceased to exist at about the time of Brown v. Board of Education. At a minimum, the foregoing give the article noteworthy status which entitles the article for unqualified acceptance as an article in Wikipedia. So, my opinion is that you are incorrect and I reassert that this submission be accepted as a article. I respectfully request that the article be accepted and that youItalic text respond to both these comments and my request. I await your response. Slidhome ( talk) 20:59, 18 February 2012 (UTC) reply

Alright, if you don't mind I'm going to copy this to my talk page (it's a much better place to discuss this; this page really isn't) and reply there. Nolelover Talk· Contribs 21:06, 18 February 2012 (UTC) reply
