[edit] Sam Soliman
I've tagged the Sam Soliman image as fair use for now. Does the site you obtained the image from have a copyright notice of any sort? -- Longhair 07:54, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Jonestown
- Hi. I'm here to help, so thanks for asking. When doubting content in an article, it's useful to add the {{fact}} tag to any passages you feel warrant an external source. Using this tag will add the text 'citaion required' to the text you are doubtful of, and will also list the article into the relevant category for missing sources. A good article is well referenced throughout, so it's quite normal to demand sources for information for which no sources are available. I hope this helps. If you need further assistance, please ask. -- Longhair 03:13, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

- It may help to read over some of the current Featured Articles, perhaps moreso the controversial ones. Good articles is also a worthwhile visit for those articles which need a little work to reach Featured status. It's certainly a challenge to present a NPOV-styled well written article on controversial topics, but it is possible.

- I wasn't aware of the Jonestown event until now. Certainly interesting stuff, and I must say I'm looking forward to a well referenced final article which brings the subject to light. Good luck. -- Longhair 03:34, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

- I also had no idea what a Bundt cake was until now. Looks like our local version of a mud cake? Sounds delicious all the same. The thought is with me. Keep your cake local, and enjoy your editing :) -- Longhair 03:57, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Trish Johnson
I'm not sure how this would work, but maybe you can help me. You moved the article for the golfer Patricia Johnson to just "Trish" Johnson. Trish Johnson (now deceased) was also a baritone saxophone player in a band called Ruder Than You. I don't know what the proper procedure is for this, but I just don't want the band members link for Trish to send to the golfers page for Patricia and not have any notation on it otherwise. I appreciate any help or direction.

- I have amended the link in the band's article to go to Trish Johnson (musician), so it is now read like those to several other band members. I have also added a note to the golfer's article. If an article is created about the musician a disambiguation page should be set up at that time. Osomec 17:18, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
