Note on Article Progress

Thank you for your help with sources, Grand'mere Eugene. I'm the instructor for the course that is working on this article, and your assistance is greatly appreciated. This article is still a work-in-progress and I have been in touch with the team on some of the changes that still need to be made. Those team members are MorganJewelS, Emmakerkering,and Haleypayne.

Thanks, Kristykelly, your students are doing good work here. You may want to help students with a couple of copyright issues, which the WikiMedia Foundation takes very seriously. The first issue is with the images uploaeded to WikiMedia Commons without appropriate copyright information; those images will likely be deleted soon, but a single image of a deceased person may be uploaded instead to Wikipedia with an apprpriate "fair use" rationale. The second issue involves paraphrasing, summarizing, and quoting source material: here's an anlysis of potential copyright vios in the article so far. (I only saw one copyvio that can easily be corrected with quotation marks and a tag line to the source.) Finally, I want to thank you for your work with young editors, especially women editors-- as you ar probably aware, women currently comprise 15% to 18% of WP's editors. So thanks for fostering their growth! — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 21:30, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
