Help with the National memo article

Hi. I noticed that back in 2015 you made several professional edits/contributions to David Cay Johnston article and decided to ask for your help with The National Memo article. Johnston is a frequent contributor to it so I assume that you know this media (and the liberal press) quite well. The article has been undergoing dramatic edits and I ask for your assistance in editing/improving this article.

I while ago I was asked to make several minor edits to the article as paid editor. At that time the article had minimal content and was no more than a stub. I’ve added some information following the structure of such articles as Salon (website), HuffPost, Politico adding infobox, improving categories and adding some well-referenced info. The article started to look like a normal website/media article. After that it got heavily edited in two waves by editors deleting large chunks of well-written (ok, my personal view :)) and well-referenced information. I believe that some of these edits/deletions are extraneous and actually make the article worse/less useful to Wikipedia users. I also believe that The National Memo article has an undisputable notability. There is an interesting discussion about this at the article’s Talk page.

A lot of what is going on around this article is plain nonsense. So if you are interested in the subject / in improving the article, please take a look at January 10th version or January 29th version. Also if you have any suggestions on improving the article, please share. Thank you in advance. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 19:48, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Jon Godden

Hello, Checkingfax – I was just reading the article on Jon Godden, and I came across something that doesn't look right. It is at the end of the third paragraph in the section Jon Godden#Early life. It looks like a reference that is not in right form. I wonder if you could take a look at it and see what you can do with it.  – Corinne (talk) 16:40, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

Hi, Corinne. Okay, done. Having fun! Cheers! {{u|Checkingfax}} {Talk} 00:29, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
