Hi Hoppyh,
I am Petros Apostolopoulos, a Ph.D. candidate in Public History at North Carolina State University. My Ph.D. project examines how historical knowledge is produced on Wikipedia. If you are interested in participating in my research study by offering your own experience of writing about history on Wikipedia, you can click on this link https://ncsu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9z4wmR1cIp0qBH8. There are minimal risks involved in this research.
If you have any questions, please let me know. Petros Apostolopoulos, paposto@ncsu.edu Apolo1991 ( talk) 16:01, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
FYI, I no longer include publisher locations in citations unless a reviewer forces me to. I just don't think they're useful to the reader. In many cases, they've changed (even when publisher is still in business), they can get contact info on the web and what's the reader going to do with the address once they get it? Write a letter? Visit? /rant. That being said, I have no objection to their being added.-- Wehwalt ( talk) 01:52, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
- @ Wehwalt: I think you are right-my thought was just compliance for FA purposes. Hoppyh ( talk) 02:07, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
I've noticed in your edits to presidential articles that you generally put punctuation within quotation marks in a sentence. The MOS:LQ portion of the style menu prescribes the use of "logical quotation", only placing punctuation within quotation marks when the source has it that way. (I acknowledge this goes against writing style used outside Wikipedia.) — ADavidB 16:12, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- @ ADavidb and ADavidB: Well, Happy New Year to you too! My grammarian mentor and wife, and I, her loyal pupil, are devastated by this news! I am sure she will not sleep for weeks, which means nor will I! Shall I say, her word, concerning the WP rule, is "obtuse?" I will be glad to comply going forward, though I refuse to make any retroactive changes. Seriously, thanks for advising me. I regret I was unaware of this. Hoppyh ( talk) 18:00, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- Making aware was my goal. I do know it grates against many. As for pinging, it may be because my user name has a lower "d", though I sign with an upper "D". — ADavidB 20:09, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- @ Adavidb: Thanks again. Trying the ping with the lower "d". I have gone back through Harding and made changes per the above. I don't want to take up your time further, but if you like, go through Harding and change anything you think is wrong–this would serve to get the article right and also I can check what you correct and it will help me get up to snuff. Just a suggestion, not a have-to. Happy NY! Hoppyh ( talk) 22:32, 31 December 2021 (UTC) PS - I don't expect you to check the sources! Hoppyh ( talk) 22:38, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
I am contacting you for your contributions to Lincoln. Something that is missing from that article is, that 80 years before the Geneva Conventions were drawn up Lincoln created his own to deal with Minnesota War Crimes of 1862. His application of them is what commuted the executions of 263 instead of the popular explanation, the intercession of Bishop Whipple. Lincoln's consternation and delay caused him to arrive at a process that made the trials, War Trials. There is no documentation that Whipple actually accomplished anything. It was Lincoln's intellect and reasoning that produced the condemned list by separating War Crimes from Conventional War. The irony of that is that the Geneva Conventions were in response to the Holocaust and Lincoln is being painted with the Holocaust for those hung for war crimes. I expect anything I add to Lincoln will be deleted and expect that if you find merit to any of this you will know how to add it. Thanks Mcb133aco ( talk) 17:16, 16 February 2022 (UTC)mcb133aco Mcb133aco ( talk) 17:16, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
- @ Mcb133aco: I recommend that you take your suggestion to the Lincoln talk page for discussion there which will need to precede any additions to the article. Make sure you have at hand the requisite WP:RS. Thanks and good luck. Hoppyh ( talk) 22:26, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from
United States Declaration of Independence into
Benjamin Rush. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere,
Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an

linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{
copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also.
