Say Hello

Welcome; please say hello (note - you might want to RIGHT click on that, and open in in a new tab or something - and when you get there, please wait a few mins for a reply) Chzz ► 17:34, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome

Hi, BuzzBrown. This is NOT some automated message...it's from a real person. You can talk to me right now. Welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed you've just joined, and wanted to give you a few tips to get you started. If you have any questions, please talk to us. The tips below should help you to get started. Best of luck! Chzz ► 17:34, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.

Ask for help. Talk to us live, or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.

Play in your user area. For example, create User:BuzzBrown/test.

Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example, Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009.

When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page.

There's lots of information below. Once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia!

Dave, Your are correct, I spent a lot of time over several years researching Charles Oliver Brown. First of all, I am in no way related to Dr. Brown if that is one of your concerns. We stumbled on Dr. Brown when we were doing research for a reenactment (1999) of General Sherman's speech at the Michigan Military Academy (1879). Understanding Sherman's enormous popularity at the time I was interested why General Sherman had this young pastor sit with him on the speaker's platform. I believe Brown's writings and speeches as a minister after the Civil War are extremely noteworthy. As you will see from my additions to the opening paragraph, Brown is cited as late as 2008. Needless to say the highly publicized blackmail case in San Francisco still needs more research. We ([www.gwbhs.com GWBHS]) are hoping the Wikipedia article will surface more information on Sherman's speech at the MMA and Brown's blackmail case.

I believe Brown's article needs to be reviewed. When Fred Shapiro was compiling the Yale Book of Quotations, he called three times to review my research on Dr. Brown, General Sherman and "War is Hell." Shapiro included a reference to Dr. Brown on page 708 of the Yale book.

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Edwin S. George, from its old location at User:BuzzBrown/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. /wiae /tlk 18:31, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Edwin S. George (February 17)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by LaMona was:

There are a number of things that must be fixed: 1) there are large parts of the article that are unreferenced. All information must be verifiable in independent sources 2) This is not written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article 3) note that patents are not an indication of notability 4) the article will need a lead paragraph that summarizes the content. Unless other sources are found, this will not meet notability. See wp:vrs, wp:rs

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Edwin S. George and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
