So glad you could join us this Saturday! Above is a template with some links you may find of interest. Rjensen and Mike Cline are also available for questions. Jump in and start making some edits and you'll have the hang of it quickly. Looking forward to seeing your contributions!-- Tbennert ( talk) 02:57, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, I've just moved the article on Merrill G. Burlingame into the mainspace. You might want to try your hand at working on the section re the Montana Historical Society. You may have more access to sources re this than I did. Thanks -- Mike Cline ( talk) 13:44, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, the article Montana Vigilantes has been significantly expanded over the last week and is now a Good Article Nominee. If you want to tackle the review, just follow the instructions at WP:GAN. Reviewing article at GAN is very good practice in learning the ins and outs of WP. Just be sure to start the review before someone beats you to it. -- Mike Cline ( talk) 19:58, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, I think I've covered all the issues raised in the review. Let me know if there is anything else I should correct. Thanks. A good review that forced me to do some digging. -- Mike Cline ( talk) 14:06, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
Hey there, just fixed your sandbox so it doesn't redirect to your new article (which, by the way, you ought to submit to WP:DYK. Ping me if you need help doing so). I also popped in a couple helpful tags that keep sandboxes from being indexed by webcrawlers and bots (I had a sandbox where I forgot to put the noindex tag start showing up in Google searches long before it was ready!) and another one with the disclaimer that it's a workspace. Just toss the tags before the article goes live, or better yet, create a sandbox with your proposed article title, which you can then delete later when the article moves to mainspace (as I am currently doing with User:Montanabw/Kenneth and Sarah Ramsey. As always, just revert anything I do that isn't working for you. I also pinged you on the talk page of someone who is making a lot of edits to the Denise Juneau article as a potential person who might be able to help that user do a better job of editing. Montanabw (talk)
Hope that helps! Montanabw (talk) 06:33, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, you'll note the two tags that another editor placed on your new article Fur Trade in Montana. I don't think the notability tag is relevant and have removed it. This article clearly meets WP:GNG requirements. Additionally, I've listed a variety of additional sources relevant to the topic to back that up. On the "opinion" tag, there's probably some validity there, but all that's required is to incorporate different perspectives into the article. You might what to query the editor who placed the tag to get more insight into why they so think. The article definitely needs a lead section WP:LEAD and some images. Let me know if I can help in anyway. I've corrected a few style issues as well, including the title which should alway be in sentence, not title case. It would also be useful to start linking this article in other relevant articles. Good start. -- Mike Cline ( talk) 15:28, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, saw your new articles list. FYI, I've got two of them in the hopper. De Lacy and James Stuart.
De Lacy is just about ready to go, I just need to do some clean up. I've been working on it for the MSU Library. Stuart has a few holes to fill before it goes. Feel free to add to them in my user space if you want. Thanks -- Mike Cline ( talk) 14:13, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
On 23 November 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Fur trade in Montana, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that after 1832, John Jacob Astor's American Fur Company dominated the fur trade in Montana on the upper Missouri River by using the paddle steamer to transport goods? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fur trade in Montana. 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. |

Hey KingJeff1970, you are now entering the dark realms of vandal patrol. I'm going to give you a heads up to the existence of a handy tool called Wikipedia:Twinkle, which is an incredible time saver, and you also are probably eligible to request Wikipedia:Rollback, which is even faster (though fraught with danger if misused).

Hey, just a ping to suggest the best way to organize an event is to look at this: Wikipedia:How_to_run_an_edit-a-thon and also User:Rosiestep/Editathons My thoughts are that we can create a workpage at Wikipedia:GLAM/Montana History (or spelled out title) similar to the one at Wikipedia:GLAM/McGill. However, I think you need to be the one to create it (and decide what to name it) given that the MHS will be sponsoring and such. I can make it pretty once you have the basics. Also look at Wikipedia:Meetup#Procedure_and_advice. I'll also look for articles that already exist and are in desperate need of help that you can add there under a "cleanup" heading: one I've already found is Melrose, Montana.

Can you peek at the photos in the article and maybe point me (and others) to any image collections that are public domain (i.e. published pre-1923)? Seems some iconic images aren't in there. Also, post more links to cool MHS source material! Yay! (I'd suggest posting at Talk:Jeannette Rankin. Montanabw (talk) 18:03, 3 October 2015 (UTC)

Montanabw (talk) 02:47, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
Hi, I appreciate the input concerning my edits to Timeline of the American Old West. I wasn't aware of your talk page post detailing the policy on editing one section at a time until after I made my most recent edit. Most of my edits to this particular article have spanned multiple sections in an attempt to avoid crowding the "View history" page with a long list of my edits; but in retrospect the one-at-a-time policy makes sense, especially for timelines. I will try to focus on one section per edit in the future!
As for the intention of some of my recent edits, specifically the ones that have altered or removed information from your edits, I hope you understand that I'm not trying to bowdlerize your input! Rather I am simply trying to keep most of the entries free of needless verbosity. I think timelines are easier to read and more manageable when the entries are minimally worded (though not minimally detailed!) - they're simply there to make readers aware of the chronology and the general context of the described events, nothing more. If a reader wants to learn more about a particular entry, they need only click on the contained links.
Take, for example, your entry on Mission San Diego de Alcalá. The last sentence describing the effects of the Franciscan missions on indigenous peoples is good stuff - it's important info and reliably sourced - but I initially saw it as an example of verbosity for three reasons: 1) it's nearly as long as the first two sentences combined, 2) the nature of the 'serious decline' of the indigenous population is vague, and 3) the information it aims to share - that the indigenous population was affected by Spanish colonization - should be obvious to most readers from the earlier sentences, and indeed to anyone remotely conscious of any part of New World history. The sentence describes something that could be arbitrarily placed in numerous spots on this timeline; why should this particular entry be that spot? It isn't consistent with the rest of the timeline because it presents the effects of European colonization as if they are exclusively or especially relevant to the history of the indigenous peoples that lived near the mission, when that's clearly not the case. My opinion is that the majority of the specifically meaningful information in this particular entry is all contained within those first two sentences.
Hopefully that makes sense, but that's just the way I see it. I'm a verbose entry-writer myself (just look at my recent entry on the Johnson County War), so much of my editing simply attempts to rectify my own inadequacies in making information succinct and unambiguous to the average reader. I'm constantly revising my own entries to make them more concise, and I'm certain there's still a great many things to improve in most of them. Again, it's all an effort to make the timeline more like a series of finely detailed bullet points than a series of thesis-heavy paragraphs. That's just how I imagine things look and read best. Though I suppose a standard level of detail to be included in an entry is a fine line to draw, a vaguely bounded distinction between too little and too much, not to mention entirely subjective. I also believe in a great deal of leeway in adhering to standards, and keeping one sentence that does not fit my personal criteria for concision is not going to make or break the timeline, nor is it really for me to choose. I simply wanted to explicate to you some of my editing methods and why I make the edits that I do.
Your entries are full of great information and I thoroughly enjoy seeing new content that I would never have thought to include! This article benefits significantly from your regular contribution. Please don't hesitate to tell me if I am overstepping the limits of propriety in the edits that I make to your original work. Also, I plan on outlining a bit more of my vision for the formatting of this timeline in the article's talk page, and I would greatly appreciate your feedback there!

A series of new articles, some related to the fur trade. See Joseph Robidoux (two articles so far) and Louis Robidoux, James White Cloud, and Mary Many Days Robidoux. I am not familiar enough with the topic to determine if there are any issues, but I had a few red flags due to a claim that one of them was the second husband of Otter Woman, and that article could also benefit from a fact check.

US Banknote Contest | ||
---|---|---|
November-December 2019 | ||
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here |

So glad you could join us this Saturday! Above is a template with some links you may find of interest. Rjensen and Mike Cline are also available for questions. Jump in and start making some edits and you'll have the hang of it quickly. Looking forward to seeing your contributions!-- Tbennert ( talk) 02:57, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, I've just moved the article on Merrill G. Burlingame into the mainspace. You might want to try your hand at working on the section re the Montana Historical Society. You may have more access to sources re this than I did. Thanks -- Mike Cline ( talk) 13:44, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, the article Montana Vigilantes has been significantly expanded over the last week and is now a Good Article Nominee. If you want to tackle the review, just follow the instructions at WP:GAN. Reviewing article at GAN is very good practice in learning the ins and outs of WP. Just be sure to start the review before someone beats you to it. -- Mike Cline ( talk) 19:58, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, I think I've covered all the issues raised in the review. Let me know if there is anything else I should correct. Thanks. A good review that forced me to do some digging. -- Mike Cline ( talk) 14:06, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
Hey there, just fixed your sandbox so it doesn't redirect to your new article (which, by the way, you ought to submit to WP:DYK. Ping me if you need help doing so). I also popped in a couple helpful tags that keep sandboxes from being indexed by webcrawlers and bots (I had a sandbox where I forgot to put the noindex tag start showing up in Google searches long before it was ready!) and another one with the disclaimer that it's a workspace. Just toss the tags before the article goes live, or better yet, create a sandbox with your proposed article title, which you can then delete later when the article moves to mainspace (as I am currently doing with User:Montanabw/Kenneth and Sarah Ramsey. As always, just revert anything I do that isn't working for you. I also pinged you on the talk page of someone who is making a lot of edits to the Denise Juneau article as a potential person who might be able to help that user do a better job of editing. Montanabw (talk)
Hope that helps! Montanabw (talk) 06:33, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, you'll note the two tags that another editor placed on your new article Fur Trade in Montana. I don't think the notability tag is relevant and have removed it. This article clearly meets WP:GNG requirements. Additionally, I've listed a variety of additional sources relevant to the topic to back that up. On the "opinion" tag, there's probably some validity there, but all that's required is to incorporate different perspectives into the article. You might what to query the editor who placed the tag to get more insight into why they so think. The article definitely needs a lead section WP:LEAD and some images. Let me know if I can help in anyway. I've corrected a few style issues as well, including the title which should alway be in sentence, not title case. It would also be useful to start linking this article in other relevant articles. Good start. -- Mike Cline ( talk) 15:28, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
Jeff, saw your new articles list. FYI, I've got two of them in the hopper. De Lacy and James Stuart.
De Lacy is just about ready to go, I just need to do some clean up. I've been working on it for the MSU Library. Stuart has a few holes to fill before it goes. Feel free to add to them in my user space if you want. Thanks -- Mike Cline ( talk) 14:13, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
On 23 November 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Fur trade in Montana, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that after 1832, John Jacob Astor's American Fur Company dominated the fur trade in Montana on the upper Missouri River by using the paddle steamer to transport goods? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fur trade in Montana. 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. |

Hey KingJeff1970, you are now entering the dark realms of vandal patrol. I'm going to give you a heads up to the existence of a handy tool called Wikipedia:Twinkle, which is an incredible time saver, and you also are probably eligible to request Wikipedia:Rollback, which is even faster (though fraught with danger if misused).

Hey, just a ping to suggest the best way to organize an event is to look at this: Wikipedia:How_to_run_an_edit-a-thon and also User:Rosiestep/Editathons My thoughts are that we can create a workpage at Wikipedia:GLAM/Montana History (or spelled out title) similar to the one at Wikipedia:GLAM/McGill. However, I think you need to be the one to create it (and decide what to name it) given that the MHS will be sponsoring and such. I can make it pretty once you have the basics. Also look at Wikipedia:Meetup#Procedure_and_advice. I'll also look for articles that already exist and are in desperate need of help that you can add there under a "cleanup" heading: one I've already found is Melrose, Montana.

Can you peek at the photos in the article and maybe point me (and others) to any image collections that are public domain (i.e. published pre-1923)? Seems some iconic images aren't in there. Also, post more links to cool MHS source material! Yay! (I'd suggest posting at Talk:Jeannette Rankin. Montanabw (talk) 18:03, 3 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I appreciate the input concerning my edits to Timeline of the American Old West. I wasn't aware of your talk page post detailing the policy on editing one section at a time until after I made my most recent edit. Most of my edits to this particular article have spanned multiple sections in an attempt to avoid crowding the "View history" page with a long list of my edits; but in retrospect the one-at-a-time policy makes sense, especially for timelines. I will try to focus on one section per edit in the future!
As for the intention of some of my recent edits, specifically the ones that have altered or removed information from your edits, I hope you understand that I'm not trying to bowdlerize your input! Rather I am simply trying to keep most of the entries free of needless verbosity. I think timelines are easier to read and more manageable when the entries are minimally worded (though not minimally detailed!) - they're simply there to make readers aware of the chronology and the general context of the described events, nothing more. If a reader wants to learn more about a particular entry, they need only click on the contained links.
Take, for example, your entry on Mission San Diego de Alcalá. The last sentence describing the effects of the Franciscan missions on indigenous peoples is good stuff - it's important info and reliably sourced - but I initially saw it as an example of verbosity for three reasons: 1) it's nearly as long as the first two sentences combined, 2) the nature of the 'serious decline' of the indigenous population is vague, and 3) the information it aims to share - that the indigenous population was affected by Spanish colonization - should be obvious to most readers from the earlier sentences, and indeed to anyone remotely conscious of any part of New World history. The sentence describes something that could be arbitrarily placed in numerous spots on this timeline; why should this particular entry be that spot? It isn't consistent with the rest of the timeline because it presents the effects of European colonization as if they are exclusively or especially relevant to the history of the indigenous peoples that lived near the mission, when that's clearly not the case. My opinion is that the majority of the specifically meaningful information in this particular entry is all contained within those first two sentences.
Hopefully that makes sense, but that's just the way I see it. I'm a verbose entry-writer myself (just look at my recent entry on the Johnson County War), so much of my editing simply attempts to rectify my own inadequacies in making information succinct and unambiguous to the average reader. I'm constantly revising my own entries to make them more concise, and I'm certain there's still a great many things to improve in most of them. Again, it's all an effort to make the timeline more like a series of finely detailed bullet points than a series of thesis-heavy paragraphs. That's just how I imagine things look and read best. Though I suppose a standard level of detail to be included in an entry is a fine line to draw, a vaguely bounded distinction between too little and too much, not to mention entirely subjective. I also believe in a great deal of leeway in adhering to standards, and keeping one sentence that does not fit my personal criteria for concision is not going to make or break the timeline, nor is it really for me to choose. I simply wanted to explicate to you some of my editing methods and why I make the edits that I do.
Your entries are full of great information and I thoroughly enjoy seeing new content that I would never have thought to include! This article benefits significantly from your regular contribution. Please don't hesitate to tell me if I am overstepping the limits of propriety in the edits that I make to your original work. Also, I plan on outlining a bit more of my vision for the formatting of this timeline in the article's talk page, and I would greatly appreciate your feedback there!

A series of new articles, some related to the fur trade. See Joseph Robidoux (two articles so far) and Louis Robidoux, James White Cloud, and Mary Many Days Robidoux. I am not familiar enough with the topic to determine if there are any issues, but I had a few red flags due to a claim that one of them was the second husband of Otter Woman, and that article could also benefit from a fact check.

Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here |
