July 2014 edit
Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Wikipedia:Transclusion, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. JohnBlackburnewordsdeeds 16:05, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Reference Errors on 4 July edit
Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:
Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:35, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of William Burke Belknap, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.potiori.com/Belknap,_Louisville.html.
It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.
If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:47, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
- In this case, the bot is confused. The referenced site is actually a copy and paste from the prior Wikipedia article for Belknap, Louisville. Stevie is the man! Talk • Work 13:11, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
Nomination of William Burke Belknap for deletion edit
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article William Burke Belknap is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/William Burke Belknap until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 08:39, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
Wikipedia and copyright edit
Hello Mitzi.humphrey, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to William Burke Belknap has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
- Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
- Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied without attribution. If you want to copy from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 08:41, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
- Hi! I see that fairly new here and still finding your way around. Please be very careful not to copy content from outside Wikipedia into the encyclopaedia (that's what the text above is about). Also, if you happen to copy text from within Wikipedia, could you please make sure that you credit the source? There are explanations and instructions at WP:Copying within Wikipedia. If you need help or advice, please feel free to ask at any time, either here or on my talk page. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 08:46, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
Managing a conflict of interest edit
Hello, Mitzi.humphrey. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Thomas M. Humphrey, you may have a conflict of interest.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. I gather you are the spouse of Thomas Humphrey. If so, please read the policies about editing on articles related to your family. Thank you. – S. Rich (talk) 00:34, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
August 2014 edit
Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". I see the "minor edit" on most of your changes. Please do not use this feature except for tpyos and the like. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 03:17, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Printmaking, you may be blocked from editing. Theroadislong (talk) 12:51, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

September 2014 edit
I need help with the requested lead box for William Burke Belknap. Is there an automatic clean-up of this? Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 16:35, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
- Fixed by adding <br> and removing unneeded spaces. We call that box the "infobox". – S. Rich (talk) 16:52, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
Thank you, Srich32977. I'm having trouble with the infobox on Joel Root now, adding his mother. Will see if I can figure out where to put the <br>. Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 19:57, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
Hello edit
I just undid your edit at Brookgreen Gardens, " including Augustus St. Gaudens " because there really was no reason to pick him out of the perhaps 100 sculptors whose works are there. However I did notice that there is no list of sculptors in the article, so that would be a good project and a place to plop Mr. St. Gaudens. Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 00:14, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
- Hello, Einar. I included Augustus St. Gaudens because he is probably the most notable of all the sculptors included at Brookgreen Gardens and I saw no listing of sculptors, as you mentioned. If you'd like to add that list, I'd be happy to contribute the link later to him in Wikipedia and also some external links. Thanks. Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 00:33, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
Thank you, Einar. Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 16:06, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Kevin Rutherford (talk) 03:21, 29 December 2014 (UTC)Thanks! edit
Thank you for creating Belknap Hardware and Manufacturing Company. I am wondering if, through your research, you found sufficient material to start an article on Morris B. Belknap (the younger), who married Lily Buckner, the daughter of Simon Bolivar Buckner, and later ran as a Republican for Governor of Kentucky. Acdixon (talk · contribs) 18:26, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
Yes, I think I can find enough information to start an article on Morris B. Belknap, husband of Lily Buckner. edit
Where do you suggest I start? For Belknap Hardware and Manufacturing Company I worked on the draft for a while before submitting for review. Which is the most efficient way to enlist help from others? I understand that it is okay to start the article independently, but it seems to go more smoothly if I do a draft beforehand. Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 19:33, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
- I haven't found much the few times I've looked. If we could find basic info like vital dates, etc. it would give us a skeleton to work with. Then, we'd have a place to hang bits of info as we find them, like the date of his marriage to Lily Buckner and some details about his campaign for governor, which is the source of my interest. The search will be complicated by references to the elder Morris B. Belknap, so the vital dates could also help with that. There probably won't be much, but since the guy was a major party candidate for a significant office (not to mention a close relative of a major military and political figure in Kentucky), it would be nice to at least have enough to stub in an article.
- FWIW, I also prefer doing a user space draft before moving to the main space. I think that would be a productive way to move forward if we can find enough to get started. Acdixon (talk · contribs) 20:30, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
I added Morris B. Belknap user page edit
I also added some info and dates for him and Lily (taken from my family tree in Ancestry.com) to the the article on Belknap Hardware and Manufacturing Company. My husband's great-great grandfather William Burke Belknap (1811-1889) and his wife Mary Richardson Belknap (1821-1912) were the parents of Col. Morris Burke Belknap who married Lily Buckner, so I should not have much trouble locating photos and other information about them.
I do, however, have difficulty uploading photos and establishing copyrights. I would appreciate any editing and writing help and hope this is what you wanted. The various Belknap families can be very confusing, and I have yet to define their exact roles within the hardware company. I tend to get wrapped up in their individual stories, which are fascinating to me. Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 22:45, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

 | On 31 January 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Morris B. Belknap, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that, during his 1903 campaign for Governor of Kentucky, Morris B. Belknap got to a speaking engagement on time by pumping a handcar? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Morris B. Belknap. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

MatthewVanitas (talk) 17:05, 5 February 2015 (UTC)Things to fix at Lewis Craig Humphrey edit
Hello, a couple things to fix:
- You have a confusion about birth/death dates; see my notes at the top
- Please divide his life into WP:Sections for easier reading
- You could use more footnotes. Check for more mentions on GoogleBooks, and note http://reftag.appspot.com can turn any GoogleBooks link into a full footnote. Similarly, WP:Reflinks works for non-GoogleBooks footnotes, so you can save having to type them manually.
- Since he is deceased, you can upload one photo of him (regardless of copyright) using the WP:Upload wizard. If you have any photo of him that is inarguably prior to 1923 (and thus out of copyright in the US), it can be uploaded to WP:Wikimedia Commons.
If you have trouble with any of this, check in at WP:Teahouse to speak to volunteer mentors. Nice work! MatthewVanitas (talk) 17:09, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
- Today I added some of this information to the talk page for Lewis Craig Humphrey: Lewis Craig Humphrey was the husband of Eleanor Belknap Humphrey, who was my husband Thomas M. Humphrey's grandmother. He died long before I was a member (through marriage) of their extended family. I met Lewis Craig Humphrey's widow Eleanor Belknap Humphrey only once in 1957, the year Tom and I were married. Thomas M. Humphrey himself did not ever know his grandfather Lewis Craig Humphrey due to the latter's early death. Thomas M. Humphrey has many notable ancestors about whom I have voluntarily written or edited for Wikipedia, including Joel Root, Elizabeth Pabodie, Benjamin Silliman, Benjamin Silliman, Jr., William Burke Belknap, William Richardson Belknap, and Rev. Dr. Edward Porter Humphrey. This relationship can be confirmed by the Belknap pedigree chart compiled by family genealogist Eleanor Belknap Humphrey, partially updated by me, and now in the collection of the Library of Virginia. Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 13:30, 29 December 2015 (UTC) Added William Richardson Belknap to this list. Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 16:09, 29 December 2015 (UTC)

Hello! Mitzi.humphrey,
I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing. If you are wondering or curious about why your article submission was declined please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Onel5969 (talk) 18:36, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Category:Salmagundi Club Members, which you created, has been nominated for possible deletion, merging, or renaming.

Category:Salmagundi Club Members, which I created, should not be deleted. I have discussed the issue at Categories for discussion page. Without this category designation, readers may not realize the importance and influence of the Salmagundi membership and how it adds to the notability necessary for a member's article on Wikipedia. Thank you, DexDor (talk), for letting me know that the category was submitted for deletion. I think the category is important for encyclopedic cross-referencing.

- To (talk). RE: my proposed article on C. Lowell Harriss, who was and still is a world-renowned economist. At first you questioned the notability of this deceased, long-tenured, and influential professor emeritus of Columbia University and asked for more inline citations. And now you are saying that I have not used reliable sources. Would you please explain which of the many sources (some of which came from Wikipedia's Help suggestions) I have cited you consider unreliable? Do you consider it sufficient that the German version of Wikipedia has an entry for C. Lowell Harriss although the English version does not?Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 12:05, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

Onel5969 TT me 14:03, 18 September 2015 (UTC)== How to change typo in name? ==
I have recently submitted the article Dr. William Ferguson Reid. Probably due to my own typo, the article is showing up in Wikipedia search with Dr. Reid's first name spelled incorrectly with three l's, i.e. Willliam. I am asking for help in correcting the spelling. If you know how to do this, please reply either here on my talk page or on the talk page for the article. == Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 13:58, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
- Hey Mitzi - I saw this post because your talk page was on my Watchlist from before, so I moved your article to William Ferguson Reid. That's how we would fix a misspelling on an existing entry. The move also took out "Dr." from the page title; usually we omit titles like Doctor from the actual page name. If someone was to enter the old name of your article, there is a "redirect" that would automatically steer them to this new title. Have a good day! EricEnfermero (Talk) 14:25, 20 September 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Edward Cornelius Humphrey edit
Hello Mitzi.humphrey,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Edward Cornelius Humphrey for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Air ♠ Combat What'sup, dog? 23:44, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I'm AirCombat. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Edward Cornelius Humphrey, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Air ♠ Combat What'sup, dog? 23:45, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
- I just wanted to add that references behind a paywall, such as Ancestry, are not necessarily bad, but it looks as if this article was copied and pasted from there, though I can't confirm this as I don't have a subscription. Please write articles yourself, by interpreting secondary sources, to create a new, unique article. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! Air ♠ Combat What'sup, dog? 23:47, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
Repost of Edward Cornelius Humphrey edit
A tag has been placed on Edward Cornelius Humphrey requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion process. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: 
which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's discussion directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please contact the administrator who deleted the page or use deletion review instead of recreating the page. Thank you.

C-J access edit
I've been on vacation and just now saw your post at User talk:Stevietheman#C-J access. I am excited to find someone with this access. The particular information I am seeking is on the first marriage of Sara Walter Combs, which all the sources I have found only vaguely allude to, given her second, very notable marriage to former Governor Bert T. Combs. The research I've done seems to show a marriage between Sara Walter and a Monte D. Gross in Jefferson County in 1975, but I can't even necessarily confirm that this is the subject of the article. I would like to, at minimum, confirm (or disprove) that Monte D. Gross is the first husband of Sara Walter Combs. If this turns out to be the person I am looking for, I'd also like to be able to cite an exact marriage date and date of divorce in the article. The sources I have seem to indicate that Combs was still married to her first husband in 1982 but was divorced by at least 1988. If you'll use the "email this user" feature to contact me, I'll get you an email address where you can forward any relevant articles, assuming Newspapers.com has such a feature. I really appreciate your offer to help. I suspect I may call on you for more C-J articles in the future.

LaMona (talk) 01:03, 28 April 2016 (UTC)I am on the hunt edit
for a visual image of a Matthew Harris Jouett painting that may or may not still exist and noticed that you uploaded a photo of a book that listed Jouett's paintings to his article. I am trying to find if a painting of Nathaniel G.S. Hart is listed in that book. I know that Jouett painted a portrait of Hart from memory after the River Raisin Massacre and would dearly love to find out if the painting still exists. Could you please look in your book and see if there's a portrait listed there of some variation of the following name: "Nathaniel G.S. Hart", "Nathaniel Gray Smith Hart", "Captain Hart" or even possibly "Nathaniel G.T. Hart". Thanks, Shearonink (talk) 06:25, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
- Never mind, I found it I listed as "Miniature of Capt Nat. G. Hart" in "Old Masters of the Bluegrass" on Page 60 and also listed as such in a Filson Club publication. I sure wish I could find out where the portrait is now, would be wonderful to have a photo for the Hart article. Shearonink (talk) 06:59, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
- Shearonink, I regret that the little book about Matthew Jouett is no longer in my possession. However, the SIRIS (Smithsonian Institution Research Information System art inventories) resource I listed re: Catherine Cornelia Prather in "Further Reading" in the article on Jouett may be a helpful link for you to pursue.

LaMona (talk) 21:55, 5 August 2016 (UTC)Nomination of Edward William Cornelius Humphrey for deletion edit
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Edward William Cornelius Humphrey is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Edward William Cornelius Humphrey (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. EricEnfermero (Talk) 02:00, 11 August 2016 (UTC)
Hi, Mitzi! Just to let you know, I have deleted a sentence from this article claiming that E. P. Humphrey was instrumental in the reunification of the Presbyterian Church. That cannot possibly be true. The unification you specified (the merger of United Presbyterian Church in the United States of America and the Presbyterian Church in the United States to form the Presbyterian Church (USA)) took place in 1983, almost 100 years after E.P. Humphrey's death in 1886. There have been various other mergers of branches of the church, but I could not find any that happened in a likely time frame for him to have taken part in it. I think he is probably notable anyhow, due to other things like his writing and the cemetery he founded, but that claim as it stands is not believable. --MelanieN (talk) 03:36, 21 August 2016 (UTC) Melanie, the misleading factor may have been the ongoing reconciliation after the Civil War between the Northern and Southern U.S. churches. The book by Kleber cited by Stevie the Man has good information about the various schisms of the churches in Kentucky. Rev. Edward Porter Humphrey, I read somewhere, was strongly for the Union. His son E.W.C., I recall reading somewhere, would have joined the Confederate Army but in deference to his father did not. Cave Hill Cemetery made separate military cemeteries for the Union dead soldiers and the Confederate dead soldiers. Thank you for making the correction, which should stand for now.Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 12:18, 21 August 2016 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for August 27 edit
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Alexander Pope Humphrey, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Southern Railway Company. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for notifying me about the better version on your user space. I moved it to mainspace, replacing the much inferior version I had accepted. (it takes an admin to do that; I had to delete the existing page first). DGG ( talk ) 19:20, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
images on Commons edit
I noticed that you have uploaded various images to Commons and delineated them as your own work (as in this photo of a painted portrait of Catherine Cornelia Prather to Matthew Harris Jouett and this image added to Edward William Cornelius Humphrey which appears to be a photo of a vintage photo). From their appearance at least one of these images appears to be from previously-published work and the other is a photo of a photo with no crediting of the photographer. The permissions of many of your image-uploads appear to possibly be in error. Shearonink (talk) 21:09, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
- Hi, Mitzi! The problem with the images you have uploaded is that you list them as "own work". But in many cases they are not your own work - that is, you did not create them.[2] They are photographs you took of a photograph or art work created by someone else. Apparently you have been doing this for some time. "Own work" is not accurate when you are uploading a picture or something that was created by someone else. For one thing, the statement you make during the upload process identifies you as the copyright holder of the work. That is not the case if you are uploading an image created by someone else. Wikipedia cares very much about copyright, and the purpose of that statement you agree to, is to make sure that we don't publish anything without the permission of the copyright holder.
- Shearonink and MelanieN: I wrote a long description/reply last night giving reasons that I can claim copyright (or permission to use) for most--if not all--of the images I post. There is no one answer that applies to all the images I have uploaded. Unfortunately, after almost finishing my discussion, my computer "froze" and would not let me type or move the cursor to sign and save the comments. This morning I had to shut down the computer to start it again and consequently lost my comments. This morning, I'll start with the example that I can explain most directly. I own both the painting by Matthew Jouett of Catherine Cornelia Prather and the copyright to images of it. It has been published elsewhere (with my permission) and is registered with the Smithsonian's American portrait registry. But the Smithsonian does not own the copyright to it. I do. The other painting which you specifically mentioned is a painting by my daughter, living New York artist Sheryl Humphrey, of the girl with two puppets. She gave me permission by phone to use the photo which I already had and which had been posted on Facebook and I believe on ImageKind as well. We thought the puppet painting was a good image for the articles in Wikipedia on puppets/puppetry. As a visual artist and also as a writer, I am well aware of intellectual property issues and would be happy to clarify the copyright as best I can of any of the images I have uploaded to Wikimedia commons. However, I would prefer to do that one image at a time, because the situation varies from image to image.--Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 12:58, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
- If one of the image-experts could chime in here on just this one image, that would be great, I don't want to give incorrect information.
- Let's take a look at the Catherine Cornelia Prather painting's image. The photo of that painting that you are using in the Jouett article and that you uploaded to Commons is from File:2015-12-17 1025 Image of Catherine Cornelia Prather in an old book with partial list of portraits by Matthew Jouett.png which states it is from an old book in the public domain but then goes on to say it is your own work. I think it would be better to either have more information in the permissions (like title/publisher/author/editor of the old book) or possibly a photo of the actual painting with the appropriate permissions/copyrights attached. This is an aside and not really tangent to the permissions discussion, but in my opinion the photo from the old book is rather grainy - it would be nice to showcase Jouett's quality as a painter - many of the images of his work that I have come across are on the internet appear to me to be copies made by others. The different in quality from other known Jouett works (as compared to, say Joust's famous Jefferson portrait) is just too stark. Shearonink (talk) 14:25, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Thanks for the information, Mitzi. Yes, they will have to be handled one at a time, but anything that is not actually your own work (for example, a photo you took of a building or a gravestone is your own work) needs to have its upload status corrected. Re copyrighted material, it is not enough for somebody to give you verbal permission. Wikipedia requires an email from you (in the case of the C C Prather painting) or your daughter (in the case of her painting), verifying that you (she) are the copyright holder, and releasing it under Wikipedia's copyright terms. Before doing that, you (she) need to understand that anything published on Wikipedia is free for anyone to copy, reuse, or adapt; see Wikipedia:CC-BY-SA telling the world what they can do with Wikipedia material. That permission is also repeated at the bottom of every file page. If you (she) are willing to release the material that broadly, then send an email to Wikipedia using the link provided by Czar. If you are not willing to release it to the world like that, you should not put it on Wikipedia. And of course you will also need to change the upload information from "own work" to something that indicates the copyright status. I believe you can do that with a simple edit to the file at Commons. MelanieN (talk) 14:48, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
- P.S. I am confused about the painting of C C Prather; are you using an image from a pre-1923 book as Shearonink says (in which case it would be public domain), or are you using a photo of the actual painting, which you own and have managed to copyright even thought it is pre-1923 (in which case you need to send a copyright-owner permission to Commons via email)? --MelanieN (talk) 14:48, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
- Shearonink and MelanieN: I wrote a long description/reply last night giving reasons that I can claim copyright (or permission to use) for most--if not all--of the images I post. There is no one answer that applies to all the images I have uploaded. Unfortunately, after almost finishing my discussion, my computer "froze" and would not let me type or move the cursor to sign and save the comments.

- In some cases, the images you have uploaded may be available for use through Public Domain. That applies to most images created before 1923. But they have to be identified during the upload process as public domain, not as something you created. An example of that might be File:Edward William Cornelius Humphrey.png. Even if you don't know the actual date of a photograph or image, if it shows someone who died before 1923 it may be assumed to be public domain. In at least one case, File:2015-07-26 1116 Girl with puppets by Sheryl Humphrey.png, you uploaded the image as your "own work" even when there is a current copyright belonging to someone else. That is a serious error. It may be necessary to review every image you have uploaded. I do realize you did this in good faith, not understanding the system, and I know you will do whatever is needed to fix things.
- I am not an expert on images and files, and I am not active at WP:Commons. I think this needs to be looked at by someone who is an admin at both en-wiki and commons. @Czar, King of Hearts, and Materialscientist: Can one of you look at this situation and advise what needs to be done? Thanks. --MelanieN (talk) 19:07, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
- The short version is that the photographer or artist owns the copyright to the images. At the very least, these recent uploads should be changed from "own work" to the name of the author/copyright holder. If they are family assets, you would need to have the copyright holders (those family members) send email verification of their licensing permission to Commons (OTRS). (By the way, the photos have to be published (like in a book) before 1923, not just taken.)

- Reply: Please see my previous comment above about the Jouett portrait of Catherine Cornelia Prather and "The Girl with Two Puppets" by Sheryl Humphrey.--Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 12:58, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) With regard to old photos: if what you have is an actual photo (not published in a book) of a person who died before 1923, I believe it can be cited as "public domain" - again, via an edit to the file to change it from "own work". If the photo has been published in a book, then as Czar says it is the publication date of the book that matters; it is public domain if published before 1923.--MelanieN (talk) 14:48, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
- P.S. I see that someone posted about this same "own work" issue on the Commons talk page for EWC Humphrey a couple of weeks ago. I think you will have your work cut out for you in dealing with this issue, but it does need to be addressed. You will probably need to review all of your uploads. --MelanieN (talk) 17:19, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:2016-05-06 1357 home of Judge Edward William Cornelius Humphrey and Jessamine Barclay in Louisville Kentucky.png edit
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:2016-05-06 1357 home of Judge Edward William Cornelius Humphrey and Jessamine Barclay in Louisville Kentucky.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. czar 17:01, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
- czarWhen I first uploaded the image above, I was quite confident that it was the home of E.W.C. Humphrey and Jessamine Barclay. There was a discussion about whether the date was accurate, or if the top hats were just part of some re-enactment. I was never able to fully establish the date of the photo or the name of the photographer. So in this case, instead of continuing to do research on that particular image, I prefer just to let the image expire this month. Thank you for your assistance. I think part of my problem submitting to Wikimedia Commons may have been misunderstanding the question: "Is this file your own work?" Since I am the person submitting the file, I assumed the file was my own work. Based on the copyright issues which have arisen, the way I am beginning to interpret it now is: If the image in the file is not an image originally created by me--even though I may currently own the copyright to that image, and/or the image may even have been printed elsewhere with acknowledgement of my ownership or permission to print it, and even though my file may have been clipped or altered or have manipulated contrast, etc.--it is still not considered my file? Is that correct?--Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 18:14, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:2016-05-06 1357 home of Judge Edward William Cornelius Humphrey and Jessamine Barclay in Louisville Kentucky.png edit
Thanks for uploading File:2016-05-06 1357 home of Judge Edward William Cornelius Humphrey and Jessamine Barclay in Louisville Kentucky.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:23, 3 September 2016 (UTC)

(@Clpo13:), Re: the military credentials . . . I was in the process of entering them when I received a notice of possible deletion. I had successfully entered the 5 Bronze Star Medal awards for Major Humphrey's service and was getting ready to add another authorized European African Middle Eastern Campaign Medal ribbon, an American Theatre ribbon, and a World War II Victory Medal (United States) ribbon. I knew most of this information but could find no newspaper documentation in Newspapers.com or other mention of it until I found some small photostatic copies of his certificate of service issued when his Army medical service ended February 1, 1946.. How should this be referenced? Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 16:22, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
- (@DGG:), you helped me with this article on Edward Cornelius Humphrey once before (see above on my talk page). Please advise on how I should handle this current deletion notice. Thank you so much for your assistance.Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 16:31, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Mitzi.humphrey: Please read our notability guideline for military members. It has specific requirements and five Bronze Stars will not merit inclusion. You are welcome to improve the article however you like, though. Furthermore, we only accept published sources. This has been a problem in the past for researchers like you; an encyclopedia is a tertiary source and we lean on secondary sources. Primary source information is frowned upon and unpublished stuff is impermissable because we cannot independently verify it. There are many popular military history magazines out there where you could publish a monograph but that can't be done on Wikipedia despite how easy a wiki is. Chris Troutman (talk) 19:28, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
- Did you note the three additional awards I added today along with a mention of the source? They are: "As documented in a photostatic copy of his certificate of service (issued at the Separation Center at Camp Blanding, Florida, on February 1, 1946, and signed by Personnel Officer H. S. Mason, Captain AGD), he also received a European African Middle Eastern Campaign Medal ribbon, an American Theatre ribbon, and a World War II Victory Medal (United States) ribbon." Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 20:13, 11 October 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Eleanor Silliman Belknap Humphrey edit
The article Eleanor Silliman Belknap Humphrey has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- There's no claim of notability. The sources cited tend to be family histories or drive-by local news coverage. Information from the "Library of Virginia" is material the subject herself donated, not independent scholarship. This is another of Mitzi.humphrey's genealogical projects.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Chris Troutman (talk) 15:53, 12 October 2016 (UTC)

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. A lot of emphasis is placed on his teaching. I don't see anything in the references that would qualify as a critical assessment of the artist's work. Has anyone written something substantial about his art?

Bio cleanup edit
Hi, Mitzi! I cleaned up your new article, Frances Wessells. Nice work! The only glaring thing I saw were listing the full names of colleges—it may not be mandatory but someone on the other side of the world might not know "NYU" and "UCLA" even if linked. Also, you can abbreviate after one's first mention.
I also moved the "family of magicians" note to the talkpage, in case the article ever gets reworked further. Usually, for bios, I do background after the lead: birthplace, early schooling, etc., but this still flows nicely. I also read where she's from the Denver area but cannot confirm that to be her birthplace. Still, nice work! — Wyliepedia 07:19, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi,
I updated the article after you posted a bare link of a youtube video for a couple of reasons: 1) A youtube video is not an allowable source, 2) if the content comes from a reliable source, then that source information should be used and the youtube link not used in the citation.
So, I found the W Magazine article and updated it in this edit. See WP:YTREF. Since I saw that it came from the magazine, I was able to backtrack and just create a regular reference.—CaroleHenson (talk) 13:52, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

Administrator? edit
You are a great Wikipedia editor. You should be an administrator. Do you want to be an admin? Bobby Jacobs (talk) 17:54, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
Thank you,Bobby Jacobs (talk) for your kind comment and suggestion that I would be a good administrator. I appreciate your encouragement. However, I enjoy exploring Wikipedia, learning from the research that I do on the articles--in other words following my own curiosity and interests. Perhaps some day after I know the ins-and-outs of the rules and procedures more clearly, I would feel ready to become an administrator.Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 00:03, 20 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Zoe Romano, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Today Show and Boys & Girls Clubs.

References edit
Remember that when adding content about health, please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations (There are several kinds of sources that discuss health: here is how the community classifies them and uses them). WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a built-in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN. We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia.

About VCU School of the Arts page edit
Hello Mitzy!
Thank you for calling the Dean's Office today about our Wikipedia page. I am an alumnus myself and have been working diligently all week to create a new version of the article for publication. Because of the copyright take-down, we unfortunately cannot edit the article in realtime; instead, I have had to put my edits on a Talk page for review (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:VCU_School_of_the_Arts/Temp). I invite you to help me out if you like, as I've been working on this solo so far. My main goal was to give a comprehensive history of the school, as that is lacking in all forms both print and digital. As an art historian, I'm doing my best to be objective, fair, and truthful. I'm also citing my sources as much as possible.
My goal is to have this page ready by Monday so than an administrator or related body can look it over and allow us to finally have the VCUarts page back.
Thank you, Doopliss77 —Preceding undated comment added 16:13, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
==Hello, Doopliss77. Thank you so much for working on this. I'll take a look at the temporary page, and if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know. I have added a few citations to the already existing page for the new dean and will probably continue to add more references since the page asks for them. An obvious change to the School of the Arts page will be to put the name of the new dean on that page.--Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 18:11, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
Doopliss77, do we have any administrators looking at the [alleged] copyright violation blanking of the article VCU School of the Arts and the changes made on the VCU School of the Arts temporary page? I think it is important that the article be restored quickly. I think the blanking may have originated with some of the unsubstantial bot reports cited on the blanking page. Is any progress being made in restoring the article, or is there anyone else at VCU who could help us expedite this? I will post this message on my talk page, too, just as a record of our current status on this issue. Thank you for all you have been doing on the temporary page, and I have tried to add a few things temporarily, as you can see in the page's history.--Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 15:19, 22 May 2017 (UTC)--Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 15:12, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
Mitzi, no I have not contacted any administrators yet. I can try to handle that myself, but are you more familiar with the process? --Doopliss77 (talk) 14:43, 23 May 2017 (UTC)
Doopliss77, I just re-read your note here after posting an answer on your talk page in which I was urging a speedy resolution. I also noticed this info below which MAY be helpful and possibly call an administrator's attention to our plight. I copied this information for easy reference:
From another user (my talk page) from his talk page and reposted by Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 17:18, 23 May 2017 (UTC): "If you have any questions, feel free to ask me at my talk page – I'm happy to help.

Flying wheels interactive model of da Vinci design shown at the Science Museum of Virginia edit
Hi, I removed your addition of this image to three articles because that addition had several problems. Its not noted to be an invention, its not really a notable historical "wheel", and images in general should have a description explaining significance since Wikipedia is not an image host. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 20:00, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- Now, and thank you for calling my attention to this, Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk), I've added text and a footnote reference in the Leonardo da Vinci article about the da Vinci show currently on view at the Science Museum of Virginia and will post the photo file there later, along with some others.Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 16:30, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
- Ok, I removed the content per WP:NOTNEWS - Wikipedia is not to be used to announce exhibitions. Also claims made that this iteration of a traveling exhibit in Richmond, Virginia has overall significance is not supported by reliable sources. I think previous editors above have explained to you the ins and outs of what Wikipedia requires in sourcing content. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 20:33, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
Nomination of Douglas Ulmer for deletion edit
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Douglas Ulmer is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.User-multi error: no username detected (help).Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 19:58, 2 January 2020 (UTC) Please look at the current 2020 history of the article on Douglas Ulmer and review the deletion rules which allow for exceptionalism of living notable academic mathematicians.Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 20:00, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Douglas Ulmer until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Rentier (talk) 21:39, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
Rentier, I wrote the original article on Douglas Ulmer. However, subsequent editors have stripped the article of some of its meaningful content. I am adding new citations, and his notability will soon become evident again.Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 00:24, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Mitzi.humphrey: I appreciate your efforts to improve the article. The issue is the lack of independent reliable sources that talk about the subject. Adding more primary sources does little to remedy that. I'm trying, but I just don't see how the subject meets any of the criteria. Rentier (talk) 03:18, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
I see today, 6/29/2017, that another writer created a draft-- see Draft:Douglas Ulmer: Revision history-- on 21 December 2016, before mine but has not pursued it. Does that have any significance to the deletion discussion? By the way, I've never pinged anyone before, please let me know if it worked for me following your precedent.Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 15:42, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Mitzi.humphrey: Yes, the ping worked :-) To me, it seems that Douglas Ulmer should be notable, but unfortunately there aren't any independent sources (that I'm aware of) that discuss him. The existence of the other draft does not affect the deletion discussion. Feel free to add a keep vote to the deletion discussion. The argument put forward by Xxanthippe is a good one, it would be interesting to see how DU's citations compare to others in the field.

- @Rentier:Rentier How long do you think it will be before the template message on the current Douglas Ulmer article is removed? I am not allowed to edit it directly.Mitzi.humphrey 14:52, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
- When there are sufficient in depth independent, reliable sources about him to establish notability? Theroadislong (talk) 15:10, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
- @Rentier:Rentier Someone should correct the comma splice in this sentence of the intro of the Ulmer article: "He is a professor, and chair of the School of Mathematics, at Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia." Please remove the first and second commas.--Mitzi.humphrey 00:38, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
- When there are sufficient in depth independent, reliable sources about him to establish notability? Theroadislong (talk) 15:10, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
- @Xxanthippe:Xxanthippe Hope I'm doing this ping thing correctly. Sorry to bother you, but "independent, reliable sources" needed for mathematician Douglas Ulmer article in order to remove template message.--Mitzi.humphrey 15:32, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest edit
Hello, Mitzi.humphrey. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Laura Pharis, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:
- avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
- instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
- when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 21:29, 29 July 2017 (UTC)

AfC notification: Draft:James Bumgardner has a new comment edit
=== @Theroadislong(talk), Where/how should that "COI" be placed? If on the Draft:James Bumgardner Talk page, which part? My nearest COI I guess would be that my daughter was an undergraduate art student of James Bumgardner at Virginia Commonwealth University. I have two degrees from VCU but was not in any of his classes. My daughter is primarily a painter and writer, whereas I am primarily a printmaker. She and I both have other degrees from other schools. I guess another connection might be that he was a member of Richmond Artists' Association, as was I, but I don't think our time with that group overlapped.Mitzi.humphrey 03:06, 30 July 2017 (UTC)

Close paraphrasing edit
Hi Mitzi, I just reviewed Louis J. Budd and thought I should give you a quick reminder to avoid close paraphrasing when creating new articles - some of the text in your article, for example:
He was born Louis Budrewicz in St Louis, Missouri, the son of a Polish immigrant father and Lithuanian mother. He completed his PhD under the GI Bill after serving in the US Army Air Force during World War II.
or
Most of Dodd's academic career was spent at Duke University, North Carolina, where he taught from 1952 until retirement.
was awfully similar to the text of one of the cited sources:
Born Louis Budrewicz in St Louis, Missouri, the son of a Polish immigrant father and Lithuanian mother, Lou completed his PhD under the GI Bill after serving in the US Army Air Force during the second world war. Most of his academic career was spent at Duke University, North Carolina, where he taught from 1952 until retirement.
This instance wasn't too bad and I have fixed it - but please remember to avoid this kind of close paraphrasing, wikipedia takes copyright issues very seriously and content which paraphrases too closely may get deleted. Fyddlestix (talk) 18:54, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

Requesting move of Abigail Spanberger to article space. edit
There are mentions of congressional candidate Abigail Spanberg but no article about her. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virginia%27s_7th_congressional_district
I request move of Abigail Spanberger to article space before the 2018 midterm elections.Mitzi.humphrey 12:40, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
- First, Mitzi, that's not how this works. If you want an article created, post at Wikipedia:Requested articles. Almost nobody is watching your talk page. Further, this AfD determined that the subject isn't notable. Finally, you admit a conflict of interest. I find it shameful that you so nakedly want to promote your candidate ahead of the election. For that reason alone you should be banned from editing. We block people hired to write articles every day. If you want help pushing your non-notable candidate, go see WP:RB although I think we'd all be better served if you just quit Wikipedia. Chris Troutman (talk) 13:58, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

Gavin Kennedy moved to draftspace edit
An article you recently created, Gavin Kennedy, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. All but one of the sources (the obit) is a primary source. It's well written, and well structured, but it needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Joni Mabe edit
A tag has been placed on User:Joni Mabe requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Speedy deletion nomination of Roomy Pak edit
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Roomy Pak requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.artspacegallery.org/2000/exhibits/roomypak/index.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Real bills doctrine, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary.

CoI? edit
Mitzi, if you have a conflict of interest regarding 1708 Gallery you not only must disclose that conflict, you certainly should not be participating in the respective AfD. You know what the rules are. At some point, you may end up in front of ANI if you continue to edit articles and continually fail to disclose. This isn't just Chris being pointed. This is the WMF Terms of Use. Chris Troutman (talk) 00:38, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
== I am not a member of 1708. However I am a local artist and have exhibited art in several of its exhibitions in its long history. I will add no further comments to the deletion discussion. However, if the 1708 Gallery article is deleted, it will be an unfortunate and unwarranted loss for Wikipedia. I think you must be aware that I created the article and that it is factual in its recognition of the gallery's notability. Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 19:31, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
- I see that you have more than once been informed of Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines. You should therefore have known without having to be told yet again that you should have declared you connection to the 1708 Gallery when editing in connection with it. Please make sure that in future you do disclose any personal connection with a topic you are editing about, without having to be explicitly asked to do so each time, and also that you comply with the other aspects of the conflict of interest guideline.

As you have already been told multiple times on this page, you should not be directly editing articles about your family members.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Art6, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Graywalls (talk) 21:12, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest edit
Hello, Mitzi.humphrey. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page User:Mitzi.humphrey/Sheryl L. Humphrey, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. --Deep fried okra (schalte ein) 06:38, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Unfair speedy deletions of many well-established articles. edit
Mitzi.humphrey (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I have been blocked from participating in deletion discussions, and many of the speedy deletion discussions are citing COI for articles where none exists Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 22:23, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
Decline reason:
I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that
- the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
- the block is no longer necessary because you
- understand what you have been blocked for,
- will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
- will make useful contributions instead.
Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Yamla (talk) 11:00, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- Comment here is a link to COIN thread that ultimately led to the block. User's first COI edit was in June 2014, making this six years of COI editing. I counted seven COI warnings on this page. Undaunted by policy, she continued making COI edits, for example making this June 9 2020 edit to the first page she edited back in 2014, which happens to be that of her husband (disclosed on user page). This was also despite a really long and time-consuming 2015 discussion where her COI was pointed out to her extremely clearly on the talk page of the article. She also contributed a draft biography of her daughter that she was working on was recently G11'd. Several editors have been digging through her contributions, as is evident from the notifications above, in order to determine if there was COI or notability issues. Because many articles were apparently created out of camaraderie or "community spirit", let's say, that is taking up a lot of valuable editor time, as the user only occasionally disclosed their COI. When they did disclose, they would often edit the articles directly (example), rather than following the COI editor protocol. Since any editor can give an opinion on an unblock request, mine would be that this editor has fully demonstrated over seven years that they are prepared to ignore COI guidelines that get in the way of their COI and community promotion editing, and should remain blocked, forever. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 23:24, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
how can we fix this problem? edit
Hey, Mitzi. You've been around long enough to know that you're not going to get unblocked if you do anything other than kowtow. Your request to get unblocked is going to get refused automatically. Also, telling friends like Eileen that you've been treated unfairly isn't going to help you get unblocked, either, when she makes sad pleas in AfD on your behalf. I think your best bet is to find a different hobby for the next six months and then attempt the standard offer. Chris Troutman (talk) 22:54, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello, Mitzi.humphrey. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Gavin Kennedy".
