Thomas Lunsford

edit

Puritan efforts at propaganda and psychological warfare took advantage of Lunsford's reputation as a wild cavalier who could perpetrate almost any outrage; John Lilburne spread rumors of Lunsford's cannibalism. A folk rhyme of the era, which confused Thomas with his brother Henry, held that

The post who came from Coventry,
Riding in a red rocket,
Did tidings tell how Lunsford fell,
A child's hand in his pocket.(John Lacy, The Dramatic Works of John Lacy, edited by James Maidment and W. H. Logan, Edinburgh, William Paterson, 1875; p. 123.)

You added the above text to Thomas Lunsford at 11:57 on 22 November 2007. I am deleting the article and recreating it as a stub for copyleft incompatibility reasons, see talk:Thomas Lunsford. I've copied it here so you can re-add it to the page once I have deleted if you want to. -- PBS (talk) 19:18, 19 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Unreferenced BLPs

edit

  Hello Ugajin! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 4 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

  1. Blake Chen - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL

You are now a Reviewer

edit
 

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 20:17, 15 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

John Florio

edit

Hi, I am researching Samuel Daniel and I notice that you added this line to his biog. "Their sister Rosa was Edmund Spenser's model for Rosalind in his The Shepherd's Calendar;" I really need to know what your source is for this quote, as I have found elsewhere that she is called Aline Daniel and it is important for my research to know if she actually called Rosaline Daniel, the muse of Edmund Spenser and Shakespeare!

I really hope you can help and thanks for your work on wikipedia.
