February DYKs: Hopefully can get some good ones lined up, or maybe 28 of them? for Black History Month in 2019.

Hey, @Bubba73:, i wonder if you know of good candidates for NRHP sites related to Black history, and/or if you could help with photos or otherwise? I am adding a candidate Georgia one below, now. I may browse in Georgia and Alabama NRHPs for a while, next in my general NRHP writing, where there will be more candidates than i come across in my writing articles for Utah, say, by contrast, and I will watch for more candidates myself. These can be created in Draft space or in User space and moved out later. Or probably can create in mainspace and apply for DYK but with release date planned ahead to be in February. I think DYKs saved up for April Fools Day and otherwise saved up are in mainspace, i have to check. This might be a small effort, but some others may participate too. --Doncram (talk) 23:17, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

Norris Bumstead Herndon

Create Norris Bumstead Herndon (b. 1897) biography article, about light-skinned black businessman of Atlanta, GA. Or suggest it for a black history Wikipedia editing event. Maybe draft at User:Doncram/February_DYKs/Norris Bumstead Herndon.

H. E. Fortson House

H. E. Fortson House, is just 391 characters, as a longish quote doesn't count, could be expanded 5x. Black middle-class preacher? Reverend H.E. Fortson H. E. Fortson. Include that was listed as part of Hart county MRA MRA.

Camilla-Zack Community Center District

Drafting at User:Doncram/February_DYKs/Camilla-Zack Community Center District, this is a rural black community center in Hancock County, Georgia.

Good Samaritans

From reviewing NRHP listings with "Lodge" in their name, i come across Mount Tabor Good Samaritan Lodge No. 59 (1899), Crownsville, Maryland. Not Masonic. This is another one of the less-known African-American community fraternal organizations. Its article links to Independent Order of Good Samaritans and Daughters of Samaria (currently a redlink). Create that, and/or maybe a list-article about assorted local organizations like this one is needed; i have cumulatively seen a lot of one-off articles about these. --Doncram (talk) 22:36, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

assorted African-American clubs

Could there be a List of African-American clubhouses equivalent to List of Masonic buildings in the United States and List of Elks buildings and so on, to cover miscellaneous ones, and perhaps cover Prince Hall Masonic Lodges? Prince Hall ones include:

and

- Washington Hall (Seattle), is Sons of Haiti, not Prince Hall

Mount Tabor Good Samaritan Lodge No. 59 (1899), Crownsville, Maryland. This is another one of the less-known African-American community ones. Its article links to Independent Order of Good Samaritans and Daughters of Samaria (currently a redlink).
Seashore Farmers' Lodge No. 767, which is another African-American club one.

How find other ones? Categories of clubhouses?

What about tomato clubs? And other women's clubs?

Home demonstration clubs, were somewhat segregated.

Out of List of womens' clubs:

Alpha Suffrage Club, black women's suffrage
Northeastern Federation of Colored Women's Clubs
Woman's Era Club, Boston, tried to desegregate national organization
Detroit Study Club, Michigan, founded 1896, black women's literary organization also

Grey Columns

User:Doncram/February DYKs/Grey Columns: Grey Columns is home of president of historically black college Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. President currently is Lily McNair. Built in 1854, presumably slave-built (cn?) It is a large late Greek Revival plantation house, "embodying most of the characteristics of high-style Greek Revival with some Italianate-style details. Slave quarters gone. Center of 5,000 acres (20 km²) cotton plantation.^[1] Was HABS-documented as Varner-Alexander House

, contributing property to Louisville Commercial Historic District

Sullivan and Richie Jean Jackson House

Sullivan and Richie Jean Jackson House, Selma, Alabama, stub started July 2019 with 344 characters, has one of the weekly "featured", long NRHP doc, is associated with Martin Luther King, Jr. and civil rights movement. Easy to expand 5X to over 1500 character DYK size requirement.

Tabernacle Baptist Church in Selma

Tabernacle Baptist Church (Selma, Alabama), stub started July 2019 as 281 character stub, has another "featured" long NRHP doc, also civil rights associated, designed by African American architect David T. West, 44 year home church of reverend David Vivian Jemison who served as president of National Baptist Convention, USA. No article yet for Demison, aka D.V. Demison or D. V. Demison. And after his 1954 death home of Louis Lloyd Anderson, involved in voting rights. Building named for Jemison at Selma University, need links to/from there. Joseph H. Jackson (has article) succeeded Jemison at NBC and became longest-serving NBC president. Jemison probably father/related to T. J. Jemison, later NBC president, which has article. Also member of the church was Marie Foster, a dental hygienist, near front of Selma march, was beaten (has an article but to be expanded). Multiple DYK potential!

Friendship CME Church

Maybe double DYK with church and person, Fred Lewis?

Friendship CME Church, Claiborne Parish northern Louisiana, president of civil rights group and of local Deacons of Defense group Frederick Douglass Lewis or Fred Lewis. June 9, 2017

Robert Hicks House

A page you started (Robert "Bob" Hicks House), associated with Deacons of Defense. created May 2015. Bob Hicks Robert Hicks lacks an article though, and is a more natural topic than the house. --do ncr am 13:49, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

Maybe double DYK, or just the person?

Hmm, seems not possible now. The house article has been expanded a lot, and there is also now Bob Hicks (activist) article already. I did just fix up necessary disambiguation at Bob Hicks now, though. --Doncram (talk) 18:28, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

Discussion

The idea is to create articles in User:, Wikipedia:, or Draft: space, get DYKs approved in advance, ready to run in February. The ideas above, to start, related to NRHP items i came across in last year or two or three. Hmm, some are naturally bio articles, about which I am not so much experienced. Some of the DYKs could be doubles, with an article on a house or other site plus a person article. User:Zigzig20s, are you in? --Doncram (talk) 17:31, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

I could add more ones about African-American neighborhoods, such as Sand Hills Historic District started recently, and other topics, as I come across them, without putting them into mainspace. In GA, AL, maybe Oklahoma. I will start that now, if one turns out to be eligible for this, i will put it into Draft or User space.--Doncram (talk) 19:32, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
