However, you've remove some vital information from the page I created for Van Howard. 1. The citation by Clifton Howard Vandevender was direct information from Van Howard before he died. 2. "Significant changes such as birth name and claiming a person has died must be supported by reference to a reliable source." I didn't see any articles about his death. If I could find an article or Obituary in the Dallas Morning News, would that suffice? After Van died, I updated the Wikipedia page and I haven't logged on in a long time. Do you have any recommendations on how to satisfy the following issues? I don't know what citation style is unclear. Also, as for the notability guidelines, Van played for many years with Ray Price and several others on Ray Price's page have their own page. This article has an unclear citation style. (March 2011) The topic of this article may not meet Wikipedia's notability guideline for biographies.

I could upload a proper photograph taken by the person herself so there's no copyright problem but I am unsure how to do it. Thank you Rhubarbone (talk) 17:55, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
Yes, it does have the wrong photo on the right hand side when you click onto Google. I'm not sure why the right photos were taken off anyhow in the first place as it was to distinguish between the two Petronella Barkers. I realize there are wrong photos everywhere by 'agorithyms' and 'bots' or something futuristically mathematical but I don't know how to get it right let alone 'clean up' the article! My parents' articles are all wrong too - I don't know who put them on it in the first place - and not a thing goes blue. Oh dear oh dear and I thought it would be so simple! There are the wrong photos there, do believe me, and it say 'report' which I do repeatedly to no avail whatever. I'm fed up with the muddle of it. How can I get it right? Please help me do it. I mustn't let it beat me. Thank you. Rhubarbone (talk) 18:10, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Apparently this is against Wikipedia rules which I had no knowledge of. I am happy to remove the link. I find this all totally over the top and would like my page which is an important part of my online presence put back up please.

RE photographs Petronella BarkerThank you very much for your helpful advice. I need to get hold of Google somehow then. Regarding the photograph of Petronella Barker which I-Never-Cry took off Wikipedia, it was Ghosted Bread who put it on, who is in fact my daughter, and Rhubarbone or Ghosted Bread could upload somehow a photograph taken of Petronella Barker of undisputed copyright therefore. One or the other could also could upload similar photographs of Eric Barker and Pearl Hackney and at least get it right on Wikipedia. Then move on to attempting to contact Google. It will never be completely right I do realize that but it should be righter than it is in my view. (I think may be the 'Geeks' do it as a bit of fun sometimes.) On a separate subject, I put in some parental facts about John Skyppe, on his Wikipedia page, who was the almoner to Anne Boleyn born in the late 15th century in the UK. I have done some research on old wills in Norfolk. The sources are 'primary'(the actual document), not 'secondary' (an internet source). Is that acceptable? It doesn't go blue. If someone were interested, they would have to go to the Norfolk Records Office as they have copyright or order the document online. No-one has questioned it but is that OK? I could put some more on about him as the Dictionary of National Biography have got some facts wrong but I daren't do it in case it's not the right thing to do. I shall try and find out how to upload a photograph of Petronella Barker etc and do it in the near future. Thank you very much again for your help. Rhubarbone (talk) 18:41, 31 August 2013 (UTC)

Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would ask that you assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not on Leona Lewis. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Hello. This edit summary: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Leona_Lewis&curid=7352704&diff=595090565&oldid=594904257 of yours does not show good faith toward the editor to changed it back to the musical artist template. His argument is that Lewis is first and foremost a singer, and thus that is the template most applicable. Although I personally agree with you, it would have perhaps been better to visit the talk page first before to see why it was changed back rather than using sarcasm in your summary. — ₳aron 10:26, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
infobox background = non_performing_personnelNow I suppose that infobox artist 'background' is a parameter to control the color. Do you know whether that is generally a special infobox paramter name? (During a visit to Craig Sharmat concerning his assistance with parent's fiction Nate the Great, I presumed that it meant career background before becoming notable.) P.S. Yesterday I linked several terms in the lead paragraph. Now I see that backed up is a mistake; further, we have only backup bands and vocalists at backup (disambiguation) and I don't know whether there is a good target for that. Meanwhile I haven't a clue about the neighboring term 'cues' (disambiguation cue). --P64 (talk) 22:47, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Steel1943 (talk) 13:46, 27 September 2022 (UTC) J J LynxYou have doubtless forgotten this matter from 2003, but I am curious about it: As the original author of the J J Lynx entry, I described Lynx as Austrian, for reasons that I have now forgotten. I recently noticed that you changed this to German in a very early revision of the text, and I am curious as to the source of this information. It's a small matter, but I am currently doing a study of the controversy over the contribution of Dorothy L Sayers to Lynx's book on the future of the Jews, and a couple of letters from Lynx (unpublished) illuminate the specific reason for the rejection, which has eluded Sayers scholarship until now. Hence my interest in any kind of information about Lynx, and if by chance you recall any source of information that I've missed, I'd appreciate learning of it. (In fact, my poor long-orphaned article, only recently released from bondage, was intended to see if anyone had more information on him.) Dandrake (talk) 15:53, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
