The unsourced message
[edit]was to let you know why another editor had reverted your edits here. I saw that you hadn't had a welcome message and might be confused about why you were reverted. Doug Weller talk 16:59, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
In my opinion, the changes that were reverted were simple enough and clearly connected enough to the sources already there that an additional source, while preferable, was not totally necessary. But I understand the guidelines and why an editor might disagree. Thanks.
Ways to improve New York Circular Letter
[edit]Hello, Sfieldman,
Thanks for creating New York Circular Letter! I edit here too, under the username Domdeparis and it's nice to meet you :-)
I wanted to let you know that I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:-
Hi this article needs more attention. There are no dates in article and I've read it 3 times and I do not really understand how the letter was a solution and to what problem. The source you provided seems quite clear and I think you should try and make this article clearer. You do not explain what the convention provision please do not forget that the majority of readers know very little about constitutional history
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Domdeparis}}
. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~
