Hi there

Hi. Welcome again to Wikipedia. I noticed that you added to Katharine Weymouth article that she will succeed Don Graham as chairman of WaPo. While most of Washington figures this is the case, we do need to source it. If you could add a source, that would be great. Thanks and again welcome. --PatrickFlaherty (talk) 20:10, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Patrick. I doubt I can find a source that says it will definitely happen. Do you just mean a source that says that she is the logical successor? For example, this was in the story in The New York Times about her promotion. It is a very family-owned company so everyone would be shocked otherwise.

Article about her in the New York Times saying she is the "palpable heir."

Yep that is perfect. Let me know if you need help adding the source. Cheers --PatrickFlaherty (talk) 20:22, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have added it.

Thanks! I fixed it up just a bit. You might also be interested in WikiProject Journalism. Journalists and Journalism related articles need a lot of work and it seems that you are interested in this topic. Cheers --PatrickFlaherty (talk) 20:35, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Patrick. I have read that there are many of these associations on Wikipedia, but I'm not sure I am ready to join one. I am embarrassed to say that I am not very good with computers! I am an old newsprint man who is only slowly waking up to this Brave New World.
