Ciao Dr. Jensen -Allow me to thank you for your thoughtful editorial assistance in developing articles as an Wikipedian Historian Editor. I have enjoyed your professional contributions immensely. When you have some extra, kindly examine the Request for Editorial Assistance on the Semi-Protected Page for Dwight D. Eisenhower which has been posted on the Talk Page here: Talk:Dwight D. Eisenhower. The request includes a link for Eisenhower's consistent efforts during the cold war to encourage the use cultural diplomacy (through the Dept. of State) in order to stabilize and improve international relations in Europe (most notably in Germany) even as he attempted to protect American interests by threatening Communist China with nuclear war during Operation Teapot. The strategy is reminiscent of Franklin D. Roosevelt's use of cultural diplomacy during World War II in South America while a military confrontation was orchestrated to neutralize the Nazi occupation of Europe. Perhaps if you have time you might assist in the task of incorporating this reference to cultural diplomacy into the article about Eisenhower, or if you prefer , share your scholarly insights about Eisenhower's use of cultural diplomacy as summarized in the reference citations which have been provided. I hope you find them to be of interest. P.S. You might also enjoy reading the article about the Seventh Army Symphony Orchestra which was established in Germany by one of America's leading modern composers ( Samuel Adler) and was commended by Eisenhower for accelerating the establishment of peaceful German-American relations during the cold war in the 1950s. It makes fascinating reading! Enjoy! Thanks again for your thoughtful scholarly assistance and best wishes for your continued success on Wikipedia.

It seems to me that you are wrong. Britain in 1864 did not oppose the policy of Bismarck, his famous saying "blood and iron". Palmerston simply could not understand the new time and the historian Pemberton writes it.

Hey, I read your article about the history/editing of the 1812 War page here yesterday, and when I saw your remark that " “the cause of the Canadian fur trade and of the Indians remained the same: preserving the wilderness.” This type of commentary would not last long on Wikipedia." I had to think of this gem I'd seen just the same day:
/info/en/?search=Talk:Heinrich_M%C3%BCller_(Gestapo)#The_elusive_secret_mystique_of_Nazi_mass_murderers (I've not looked into it - dunno how long it lasted on the page [or whether its still on the article page even :P] )
Like I said, just trivia, but I thought you might enjoy it :P.
Regards, Sean Heron ( talk) 07:30, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
Just checked - it's still there! (second last paragraph under the section
Heinrich_Müller_(Gestapo)#Disappearance ) . "Nonetheless, the uncertainty of Müller's ultimate end and/or whereabouts has only served to nourish the "mysterious power" that the Gestapo elicits even to the present." . Guess I'll remove it :D

First off, west Africans were sold by ARABS who began the Slavs trade. You saying they were sold by other “west Africans” is a watered down , disingenuous attempt at letting other non-blacks off the hook for Slavs trading FIRST. The transatlantic slave trade began during the 15th century when Portugal, and subsequently other European kingdoms, were finally able to expand overseas and reach Africa. The Portuguese first began to kidnap people from the west coast of Africa and to take those they enslaved back to Europe.Oct 5, 2012 https://www.bbc.co.uk/history/british/abolition/africa_article_01.shtml#one

Hello. Help copy edit. Cheung2 ( talk) 07:37, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
Hello Rjensen/Archive 31, I just wanted to thank you for your work for the WikiProject Notre Dame. I am currently making an effort to revamp it and improve all articles. I was wondering if you could help out, since any and all help is needed. If you want, you can check out the To Do list for the top priority, or take your own initiative and work on what's needed the most. The top priority articles in bad condition, like the colleges or the grotto, need a lot of help too. Additionally, photos or translation in other languages are also great.
Best and thank once more for your work on Wikipedia, Eccekevin ( talk) 02:39, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

Just wanted to let you know that that Irving source is not inherently incorrect because Irving’s works reflected the partisan environment of the early US, which is why someone who specializes in English (Irving was one of the first major American authors, but he didn’t exist or write in a vacuum and politics influenced his writings, one example being when he makes reference to the two parties described as “Federal” and “Democrat”) would be contextualizing terms that require clarification to modern readers.
That said, I removed it since you thought it could be an issue, but I the Webster and Larson citations do corroborate the usage of “Democrat” / “Democratic Party” as a name used to refer to what we call the “Democratic-Republican Party”.
This edit you made way back in 2010, seems to introduce a copyvio. Could you fix it please?
All the best:

There's an interesting discussion (not an Rfc) at Talk:Occupation of Poland (1939–1945) about whether or not, in one commenter's words, "Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union [were] equally hostile to Poland and the Polish people". I thought you might be well-placed to comment on this. (I believe that WP:CANVASSING does not apply to this message, because I have no stake or opinion in this discussion, and no idea what your opinion might be, which imho, makes it come under appropriate notification.)

Hi!

Hi RJensen;
Thank you for taking the initiative on the three articles in this cluster on Foreign relations of China. We need more curation of established articles, and you are setting a good example.
I agreed with you on the TalkPage here that it was time to split the article (though I suggested that 1991 was not the most useful division), and I made a few suggestions.
But it would be even more helpful if you let other editors know your plans, most usefully on the TalkPage, even more usefully on the China Project TalkPage. You decided to be bold, rather than post a notice and start a discussion, which is certainly allowed, but you would set a good precedent if you encourage teamwork.
I'm also concerned that there might be trouble with the split if we don't follow the procedures described in WP:SPLIT. The article describes templates and procedures for preserving edit history.
I don't want to interfere (and don't have time to in any case), but do want to share these concerns.
All the best! ch ( talk) 21:40, 31 August 2019 (UTC)

In reference to that edit in the Democratic-Republican Party article, here are some primary sources where leaders and supporters of that party referred to themselves as Democrats in a neutral and/or positive manner.

Richard J. Jensen,
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is William Farr and I am a retired herpetologist from Texas with deep roots and 60 years of life in the south. I see you are a scholar and an author. I too have authored a number of articles and book chapters on the subject of herpetology.
I don't want to be argumentative and mean no disrespect but, the introduction to the Wikipedia Redneck page contradicts its own text, is factually in error, and frankly somewhat offensive. To insist in the opening paragraph that the expression redneck is always derogative, and never positive or humors, is inconsistent with the text that follows (and with the truth and reality of life in the south). Please read the entire page carefully and thoughtfully. It identifies "redneck" both historically and currently in positive, self identifying terms throughout.
From the text of the Wikipedia article - "A newspaper notice in Mississippi in August 1891 called on rednecks to rally at the polls"; "By 1910...chiefly poor white farmers—began to describe themselves proudly as "rednecks"; "American coal miner union members who wore red bandanas for solidarity" "Edward Abbey and Dave Foreman also use "redneck" as a political call to mobilize poor rural white Southerners."; "One popular early Earth First! bumper sticker was "Rednecks for Wilderness"; "However, many Southerners have proudly embraced the term as a self-identifier." "The self-described "anti-racist, pro-gun, pro-labor" group Redneck Revolt have used the term to signal its roots in the rural white working-class and celebration" "At the same time, some white Southerners have reclaimed the word, using it with pride and defiance as a self-identifier"
In fact, this article identifies more positive or neutral usage than negative.
I also note that in the second sentence, the term is equated to three other terms: cracker, hillbilly, and white trash. In the Wikipedia Redneck article, the three terms "cracker", "hillbilly", and "white trash" are all linked to their own Wikipedia articles. The three terms "cracker", "hillbilly", and "white trash" all have qualifying wording or explicit statements saying these terms are also not always derogative and can even be positive.
From introduction to the Wikipedia article "Cracker" [third sentence]: "It is sometimes used in a neutral or positive context or self-descriptively with pride"
From introduction to the Wikipedia article "Hillbilly" [first sentence]: "Hillbilly" is a term (often derogatory) for people of various ethnicities who dwell in rural, mountainous areas in the United States, primarily in southern Appalachia and the Ozarks.
From introduction to the Wikipedia article "White trash" [fourth sentence]: "some white entertainers self-identify as "white trash" and celebrate the stereotypes and social marginalization of lower-class whiteness."
I have always understood the term to apply to people who work in the sun and consequently get sunburned necks, specifically ranchers and farmers. All of the ranchers and farmers that I know (and I do know many) are proud people and proud of their work. It is not shameful to be a rancher, farmer, or a redneck as the Wikipedia introduction implies. This origin of the term is discussed in the article under "19th and early 20th centuries" heading. Under the "In popular culture" heading, the vast majority is humors usage in songs and comedy, including some very popular and mainstream songs and comedy generated by, and directed to, self identifying rednecks.
In some places "Yankee" or "Yank" has derogative connotations but, most Americans would not be offended by the term, even coming from a foreigner or a southerner, and I think it would be wrong and offensive to define Yankee as a pejorative and derogative term. The only thing that makes words like redneck, Yankee, gringo, gay, and a thousand others, is the context, bad intention, and tone of delivery.
Please read the entire article carefully and consider. Thank you, William WiLaFa 04:10, 4 October 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wilafa ( talk • contribs)
Thank you for your reply. There is actually a lot of literature on the subject. It took me about an hour to find these citations this morning, and from the looks of things, I could double this in another hour. I would be lying to you if I said that I had read all of these titles, but, I have read all of the abstracts, introductions, and scanned through the text. Redneck is a rather complex and nuanced word that can mean different things to different people, but I think it would be safe to say it is not always derogative, and a significant number of people (historically and currently) even take some pride in the status and heritage of its impactions.

Just a quick heads up that I plan to blank this section, for reasons that I will explain in detail on that Talk Page. I do not, of course, question your intentions, but respectfully request that you apply the same high standards in your editing China related articles that you have shown in your exemplary scholarly work in American history. It took me more time than I had to spare to deal with the Technology and science section, so my only course for Christian missions is to blank it.
Please wait until you see my arguments before making more edits. All the best, ch ( talk) 05:31, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
Please reconsider your addition of the arrival of four missionaries to an unspecified place in Ethiopia to the article on the history of Ethiopia. I am a missionary myself, I therefore believe that the contribution of missionaries can be crucial for any society. Still, I fail to see that this episode provides any relevant content to the article at hand, sandwiched between the accomplishments of Haile Selassie and the Italian occupation. Please consider the principle of Wikipedia:UNDUE. Don't you think that this content would fit better on a page dealing with the history of missions in Ethiopia, or possibly with the history of education? I really don't see its place in this article.

I made large number of successive changes to The Establishment#Pakistan after researching content for several hours. An IP (5.162.61.207), with no prior history of editing, reverted my changes. I presume you do not know him/her and have no way of kowing either. After going through your talk page, you seem an experienced editor with sufficient track record, which inspires my trust in you. I have no issues with your revert, thanks for reviewing my work. Please read my message on his talk page. Please review my changes IP has reverted. I am interested in your feedback. Also, advice me what is the best way to proceed. For now, I am thinking that I shall wait until tomorrow and then reinsert my changes he has reverted. Before doing so, I will review my work, add citations to any unsourced work, will continue to refine to add more robust citations, and will rephrase in a way to make it less subject to contentions. Also, do you think it is better to create a separate article on The Establishment in Pakistan and then pipe/link back the summary to The Establishment#Pakistan? What do you think of my edits in that context? Thanks for reading my message. 222.164.212.168 ( talk) 18:27, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
Hello. I have a question about your "Revision as of 11:42, 23 December 2016" to the page "The Federalist Party".

I had requested Rjensen ( talk · contribs) to create a oneliner namespace so that I can build a larger Pakistan-specific article using my edits to the Global "The Establishment" article which were reverted by an IP. Rjensen was kind enough to do so. I came to his talkpage just now to work on that page and realised that namespace has been created and deleted. Please read my discussion with Rjensen above where we agreed to create a separate larger Pakistan-specific article and link it back to the global The Establishment article (which has multiple nations in it) with a short summary. Please restore the delete The Establishment (Pakistan) namespace for me to work on it. Thankyou. 222.164.212.168 ( talk) 18:45, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

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 |

I've explained to you why your contribution to Criticism of Wikipedia is inappropriate. You need to get consensus for adding it rather than edit-warring. I know that there are groups who may have published more recently on the current state of wp-coverage (e.g. Black Lunch Table initiative). Please do the actual work to find independent, reliable sourcing (i.e. a proper source) rather than lazy links to ad-hoc categorization pages. With a proper source, I'd be happy to see something added about the progress made on the US issue. 🌿 SashiRolls t · c 04:26, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

Ciao Dr. Jensen -Allow me to thank you for your thoughtful editorial assistance in developing articles as an Wikipedian Historian Editor. I have enjoyed your professional contributions immensely. When you have some extra, kindly examine the Request for Editorial Assistance on the Semi-Protected Page for Dwight D. Eisenhower which has been posted on the Talk Page here: Talk:Dwight D. Eisenhower. The request includes a link for Eisenhower's consistent efforts during the cold war to encourage the use cultural diplomacy (through the Dept. of State) in order to stabilize and improve international relations in Europe (most notably in Germany) even as he attempted to protect American interests by threatening Communist China with nuclear war during Operation Teapot. The strategy is reminiscent of Franklin D. Roosevelt's use of cultural diplomacy during World War II in South America while a military confrontation was orchestrated to neutralize the Nazi occupation of Europe. Perhaps if you have time you might assist in the task of incorporating this reference to cultural diplomacy into the article about Eisenhower, or if you prefer , share your scholarly insights about Eisenhower's use of cultural diplomacy as summarized in the reference citations which have been provided. I hope you find them to be of interest. P.S. You might also enjoy reading the article about the Seventh Army Symphony Orchestra which was established in Germany by one of America's leading modern composers ( Samuel Adler) and was commended by Eisenhower for accelerating the establishment of peaceful German-American relations during the cold war in the 1950s. It makes fascinating reading! Enjoy! Thanks again for your thoughtful scholarly assistance and best wishes for your continued success on Wikipedia.

It seems to me that you are wrong. Britain in 1864 did not oppose the policy of Bismarck, his famous saying "blood and iron". Palmerston simply could not understand the new time and the historian Pemberton writes it.

Hey, I read your article about the history/editing of the 1812 War page here yesterday, and when I saw your remark that " “the cause of the Canadian fur trade and of the Indians remained the same: preserving the wilderness.” This type of commentary would not last long on Wikipedia." I had to think of this gem I'd seen just the same day:
/info/en/?search=Talk:Heinrich_M%C3%BCller_(Gestapo)#The_elusive_secret_mystique_of_Nazi_mass_murderers (I've not looked into it - dunno how long it lasted on the page [or whether its still on the article page even :P] )

First off, west Africans were sold by ARABS who began the Slavs trade. You saying they were sold by other “west Africans” is a watered down , disingenuous attempt at letting other non-blacks off the hook for Slavs trading FIRST. The transatlantic slave trade began during the 15th century when Portugal, and subsequently other European kingdoms, were finally able to expand overseas and reach Africa. The Portuguese first began to kidnap people from the west coast of Africa and to take those they enslaved back to Europe.Oct 5, 2012 https://www.bbc.co.uk/history/british/abolition/africa_article_01.shtml#one

Hello Rjensen/Archive 31, I just wanted to thank you for your work for the WikiProject Notre Dame. I am currently making an effort to revamp it and improve all articles. I was wondering if you could help out, since any and all help is needed. If you want, you can check out the To Do list for the top priority, or take your own initiative and work on what's needed the most. The top priority articles in bad condition, like the colleges or the grotto, need a lot of help too. Additionally, photos or translation in other languages are also great.

Just wanted to let you know that that Irving source is not inherently incorrect because Irving’s works reflected the partisan environment of the early US, which is why someone who specializes in English (Irving was one of the first major American authors, but he didn’t exist or write in a vacuum and politics influenced his writings, one example being when he makes reference to the two parties described as “Federal” and “Democrat”) would be contextualizing terms that require clarification to modern readers.
That said, I removed it since you thought it could be an issue, but I the Webster and Larson citations do corroborate the usage of “Democrat” / “Democratic Party” as a name used to refer to what we call the “Democratic-Republican Party”.
This edit you made way back in 2010, seems to introduce a copyvio. Could you fix it please?

There's an interesting discussion (not an Rfc) at Talk:Occupation of Poland (1939–1945) about whether or not, in one commenter's words, "Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union [were] equally hostile to Poland and the Polish people".

Hi RJensen;
Thank you for taking the initiative on the three articles in this cluster on Foreign relations of China. We need more curation of established articles, and you are setting a good example.
I agreed with you on the TalkPage here that it was time to split the article (though I suggested that 1991 was not the most useful division), and I made a few suggestions.
But it would be even more helpful if you let other editors know your plans, most usefully on the TalkPage, even more usefully on the China Project TalkPage. You decided to be bold, rather than post a notice and start a discussion, which is certainly allowed, but you would set a good precedent if you encourage teamwork.
I'm also concerned that there might be trouble with the split if we don't follow the procedures described in WP:SPLIT. The article describes templates and procedures for preserving edit history.
I don't want to interfere (and don't have time to in any case), but do want to share these concerns.
All the best! ch ( talk) 21:40, 31 August 2019 (UTC)

Richard J. Jensen,
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is William Farr and I am a retired herpetologist from Texas with deep roots and 60 years of life in the south. I see you are a scholar and an author. I too have authored a number of articles and book chapters on the subject of herpetology.
I don't want to be argumentative and mean no disrespect but, the introduction to the Wikipedia Redneck page contradicts its own text, is factually in error, and frankly somewhat offensive. To insist in the opening paragraph that the expression redneck is always derogative, and never positive or humors, is inconsistent with the text that follows (and with the truth and reality of life in the south). Please read the entire page carefully and thoughtfully. It identifies "redneck" both historically and currently in positive, self identifying terms throughout.
From the text of the Wikipedia article - "A newspaper notice in Mississippi in August 1891 called on rednecks to rally at the polls"; "By 1910...chiefly poor white farmers—began to describe themselves proudly as "rednecks"; "American coal miner union members who wore red bandanas for solidarity" "Edward Abbey and Dave Foreman also use "redneck" as a political call to mobilize poor rural white Southerners."; "One popular early Earth First! bumper sticker was "Rednecks for Wilderness"; "However, many Southerners have proudly embraced the term as a self-identifier." "The self-described "anti-racist, pro-gun, pro-labor" group Redneck Revolt have used the term to signal its roots in the rural white working-class and celebration" "At the same time, some white Southerners have reclaimed the word, using it with pride and defiance as a self-identifier"
In fact, this article identifies more positive or neutral usage than negative.
I also note that in the second sentence, the term is equated to three other terms: cracker, hillbilly, and white trash. In the Wikipedia Redneck article, the three terms "cracker", "hillbilly", and "white trash" are all linked to their own Wikipedia articles. The three terms "cracker", "hillbilly", and "white trash" all have qualifying wording or explicit statements saying these terms are also not always derogative and can even be positive.
From introduction to the Wikipedia article "Cracker" [third sentence]: "It is sometimes used in a neutral or positive context or self-descriptively with pride"
From introduction to the Wikipedia article "Hillbilly" [first sentence]: "Hillbilly" is a term (often derogatory) for people of various ethnicities who dwell in rural, mountainous areas in the United States, primarily in southern Appalachia and the Ozarks.
From introduction to the Wikipedia article "White trash" [fourth sentence]: "some white entertainers self-identify as "white trash" and celebrate the stereotypes and social marginalization of lower-class whiteness."
I have always understood the term to apply to people who work in the sun and consequently get sunburned necks, specifically ranchers and farmers. All of the ranchers and farmers that I know (and I do know many) are proud people and proud of their work. It is not shameful to be a rancher, farmer, or a redneck as the Wikipedia introduction implies. This origin of the term is discussed in the article under "19th and early 20th centuries" heading. Under the "In popular culture" heading, the vast majority is humors usage in songs and comedy, including some very popular and mainstream songs and comedy generated by, and directed to, self identifying rednecks.
In some places "Yankee" or "Yank" has derogative connotations but, most Americans would not be offended by the term, even coming from a foreigner or a southerner, and I think it would be wrong and offensive to define Yankee as a pejorative and derogative term. The only thing that makes words like redneck, Yankee, gringo, gay, and a thousand others, is the context, bad intention, and tone of delivery.
Please read the entire article carefully and consider. Thank you, William WiLaFa 04:10, 4 October 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wilafa ( talk • contribs)
Thank you for your reply. There is actually a lot of literature on the subject. It took me about an hour to find these citations this morning, and from the looks of things, I could double this in another hour. I would be lying to you if I said that I had read all of these titles, but, I have read all of the abstracts, introductions, and scanned through the text. Redneck is a rather complex and nuanced word that can mean different things to different people, but I think it would be safe to say it is not always derogative, and a significant number of people (historically and currently) even take some pride in the status and heritage of its impactions.

It took me more time than I had to spare to deal with the Technology and science section, so my only course for Christian missions is to blank it.
Please wait until you see my arguments before making more edits. All the best, ch ( talk) 05:31, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
Please reconsider your addition of the arrival of four missionaries to an unspecified place in Ethiopia to the article on the history of Ethiopia. I am a missionary myself, I therefore believe that the contribution of missionaries can be crucial for any society. Still, I fail to see that this episode provides any relevant content to the article at hand, sandwiched between the accomplishments of Haile Selassie and the Italian occupation. Please consider the principle of Wikipedia:UNDUE. Don't you think that this content would fit better on a page dealing with the history of missions in Ethiopia, or possibly with the history of education? I really don't see its place in this article.

I made large number of successive changes to The Establishment#Pakistan after researching content for several hours. An IP (5.162.61.207), with no prior history of editing, reverted my changes. I presume you do not know him/her and have no way of kowing either. After going through your talk page, you seem an experienced editor with sufficient track record, which inspires my trust in you. I have no issues with your revert, thanks for reviewing my work. Please read my message on his talk page. Please review my changes IP has reverted. I am interested in your feedback. Also, advice me what is the best way to proceed. For now, I am thinking that I shall wait until tomorrow and then reinsert my changes he has reverted. Before doing so, I will review my work, add citations to any unsourced work, will continue to refine to add more robust citations, and will rephrase in a way to make it less subject to contentions. Also, do you think it is better to create a separate article on The Establishment in Pakistan and then pipe/link back the summary to The Establishment#Pakistan? What do you think of my edits in that context? Thanks for reading my message. 222.164.212.168 ( talk) 18:27, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
Hello. I have a question about your "Revision as of 11:42, 23 December 2016" to the page "The Federalist Party". You appear to have overwritten an addition I had made in 2012, a quote from a book by Merrill Jensen regarding the term "Federalist". I was wondering what the reason was for making that change.

I had requested Rjensen ( talk · contribs) to create a oneliner namespace so that I can build a larger Pakistan-specific article using my edits to the Global "The Establishment" article which were reverted by an IP. Rjensen was kind enough to do so. I came to his talkpage just now to work on that page and realised that namespace has been created and deleted. Please read my discussion with Rjensen above where we agreed to create a separate larger Pakistan-specific article and link it back to the global The Establishment article (which has multiple nations in it) with a short summary. Please restore the delete The Establishment (Pakistan) namespace for me to work on it. Thankyou. 222.164.212.168 ( talk) 18:45, 18 October 2019 (UTC)
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 |

If you can spare some time please take a look at the lead section of Francisco Franco and discussion going on in the talk page and provide your independent opinion. J Pratas ( talk) 10:25, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
I've explained to you why your contribution to Criticism of Wikipedia is inappropriate. You need to get consensus for adding it rather than edit-warring. I know that there are groups who may have published more recently on the current state of wp-coverage (e.g. Black Lunch Table initiative). Please do the actual work to find independent, reliable sourcing (i.e. a proper source) rather than lazy links to ad-hoc categorization pages. With a proper source, I'd be happy to see something added about the progress made on the US issue. 🌿 SashiRolls t · c 04:26, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
Hi Rjensen. I reverted my edit, but I wanted to send a quick note, since you probably got a rollback notice. I had fat-fingered and made this edit. I should learn my lesson & not peruse my watchlist on my phone! = paul2520 ( talk) 15:31, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi RJ!
I was looking something up on behalf of my veteran husband and found the link to Title 38 is broken. Specifically:
All veteran education programs are found in law in Title 38 of the United States Code. Each specific program is found in its own Chapter in Title 38.
