Recommended Changes (29 Oct 08) edit

Hi. (I did not bother to copy the full text of your message to me back into your user page because I have no specific comments about the contents. A typical Wikipedia behavior is to reply on the sending user's talk page, providing the original message as context if necessary.)

I don't have any problem with the changes that you propose in the Humphreys article. In general, it is not necessary to precede updates of this type with a request for permission. Just go ahead and make the change and if it is well-cited and well formatted, that will be the end of it. If I or any of the other editors have an objection, you will hear about it, in our typical friendly manner. :-) Prior discussion of particularly controversial changes is often a good idea, although this is generally done in the talk page for the article.

Welcome to Wikipedia and don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or suggestions about the editing process or the Civil War articles you're interested in. Hal Jespersen (talk) 15:31, 30 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
