The edit summary is your friend

Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Nathan Stubblefield does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! Stevie is the man! ^{Talk • Work} 00:41, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

Will I be allowed or anyone else for that matter be allowed to edit and contribute to Nathan Stubblefield's wikipedia page without it being deleted? and add other sources of info other then what's copied and pasted from Lochte, Bob, "Kentucky Farmer Invents Wireless Telephone! But Was It Radio?" and whose book is for sale.

I feel that other knowledgable persons and authors who have researched Stubblefield's life, family and patents should be able to edit and contribute to his wikipedia page other then just editors who quote from Lochte's book. Some authors have experimented with Stubblefield's patents and are electrical engineers who write of Stubblefield's Electrical Battery and Earth Battery Patent (which he also utilized with his various improved wireless telephones) and they have different theories other than just Lochte's on how they worked that could contribute greatly to the Nathan Stubblefield wikipedia page edits and references and I'd like to add them.

Stubblefield had a half sister named Aline Edgeworth Stubblefield born in 1874 after his mother died in 1869 at 32 and his father then remarried to Clarissa Clara Jones. I have documents to prove this in his father's last will and testament from the Kentucky Digiatal Library and a geology site. His father was also a Civil War Veteran with several pages in the Kentucky Digital Library under William Stubblefield diary.</ref>

There's much written on the internet about the Electric earth battery Nathan Stubblefield patented for its free energy resource and electricians who have experimented in trying to replicate it using his patents and have put up many YouTube videos and forums.

Also in Nathan Stubblefield's Biography section the paragraph stating ("Though there were contemporaneous experiments by others William Preece and Alexander Graham Bell Photophone) does not belong in his "Biography" section the, Lochte (2001) section has that written there. And it's written about in the 1902 newspaper, and referenced on his page in the article "Scientific American, May 24, 1902, "The Latest Advance In Wireless Telephone," by Waldon Fawcett. And here in the original Scientific American May 24, 1902 article. And it states also that the Hertzian currents and wave was used.

Also newspapers and other articles and books never refer to Nathan Stubblefield as a "Melon Farmer" they refer to Nathan Stubblefield as an Inventor and Electrician and sometimes, but not always a farmer too. I feel calling him just a "Melon Farmer" is derogatory and I'd like to change it if that's okay? Stubblefield did many other things to make a living while experimenting, inventing and patenting aside from farming such as owning his own business and manufacturing and installing telephones and later utilizing a portion of his land to open his own school and teach.

Also here are early theories of how Nathan Stubblefield's "improved" wireless telephone worked in 1902 from a newspaper article. Professor M. L. Pence, who has the chair of physics at the Kentucky State college, and whose theory as to why the earth is a magnet created a sensation in the scientific world some months ago, was seen in regard to the Stubblefield experiments, which seem to have a bearing on his theory. He said: "I certainly regard wireless telephony as possible just as much so as wireless telegraphy. In ordinary telephony no sound passes over the wire. Nothing but electric energy is transmitted. Now, instead of using a wire, the ether may be used, and the energy may be transmitted in the form of ether waves. The ether is the great vehicle for the transmission of energy. This medium fills all space, interplanetary and intermolecular. I further believe that this same ether is electricity and that all the electrical phenomena are due to the same disturbance of the ether. The ether is easily thrown into vibration, resulting in ether waves." And Nathan Stubblefield, the inventor, is, according to his own description, a "practical farmer, fruit grower and electrician." He owns valuable farming property in the vicinity of Murray and it is here that his experiments have been carried on.

These early 1902 newspaper descriptions of how Nathan Stubblefield's device worked in some of his own words and the theories of Professor M. L. Pence have more bearing then speculation and assumption of modern theorists and the fact that Stubblefield refused to give his every detail away and quoted here - "The nature of the apparatus used by the inventor is not known. He positively declines at this time to give out either technical descriptions or diagrams of the vital part of his apparatus. All that is exposed to view while his apparatus is in working order is the ordinary commercial telephone transmitter and receiver. Within a brightly polished box, which is not opened in public, the inventor conceals his secret which he says he will not disclose until it is perfected to the smallest detail. Up to this time he has devoted his entire attention to the construction of a transmitter."

So my question is, can I edit and add some things without it being deleted or not? I have several more citation sources I'll add as I edit because I thought I'd have a few hours to do that before when my edits were deleted because my sources weren't added immediately, but obviously not. Thank you goodbye for now.Earlyradioman (talk) 05:17, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
