I'm just now reading your contributions to Red Oak, Iowa. They are good, except one thing: what does "Id." mean? Thanks for your contributions! Nyttend 13:15, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- I take it that you mean something similar to ibid? Such a style is not useful on Wikipedia, not because it's a bad style, but because other references can easily and properly be inserted between those two, thus confusing the reader who doesn't dig deeply into the article history to find when the references were first added. I'm going to change them, and you can easily see the proper way (or rather, one proper way) to do it. Thanks for getting back to me! Nyttend 03:35, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DYK: Florence Jaffray Harriman
Hi. I've nominated Florence Jaffray Harriman, an article you worked on, for consideration to appear on the Main Page as part of Wikipedia:Did you know. You can see the hook for the article at Template talk:Did you know#Articles created/expanded on March 2, where you can improve it if you see fit. Thanks. Discussion has already begun, and there are suggestion on how to improve the referencing. You may want to check that out. Happy editing. PFHLai (talk) 06:08, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Harriman piece
Hi Jsmak. Yep, you've made the improvements I suggested. The only further thing I'd recommend is to add an Infobox Person to the article. Great article, by the way. Manxruler (talk) 14:32, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
- Hi again. I'd just like to congratulate you on the DYK and tell you that I think the article look really great. Keep up the good work! Manxruler (talk) 23:12, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
- I never would have known about Daisy if not for your DYK piece. The whole article has improved nicely in the last week. I'm happy to have helped. Dang Fool (talk) 16:03, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Géraud Réveilhac
Hello,
You asked an excellent question on the discussion page of this article. There is for sure a mistake on this page which is the source for the date of Réveilhac's death. The birthdate is correct, I received the birth certificate of the General from the mairie of Aurillac, but I never received his death certificate. So considering the article in The Times, the deathdate should be before 1935. Best regards. SalomonCeb (talk) 13:21, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Re:Bio grade
You're welcome. :) However, I cannot upgrade it anymore by myself. The next class requires it to be a good article. For that, it needs to meet the good article criteria. Once you think it meets the criteria, nominate it and a good article reviewer will take a look at it and either upgrade it, turn it down, or put it on hold. Good luck!

Nice work. Do you have any other available sources from which the article could be expanded? Best, Fvasconcellos (t·c) 01:44, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Leonard Lomell
Thank you for your outstanding work on the page. If I hadn't checked the history page, I would have had no idea that it's only a week old. Well done! I don't believe that I have any direct contact to any WWII-era Rangers, however I will certainly ask around in the Ranger community to see if I can come up with a photo of 1SG Lomell. Thanks again.
