Chambered - How is it you know such details of Sherwood Eddy? DEddy (talk) 17:55, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

DEddy - Thanks for your question. Below is a link to the 'George Sherwood Eddy Papers' at the Yale University Library. The web site includes valuable biographical information on the individual known to most of us as just 'Sherwood Eddy.' I believe that Sherwood Eddy's contributions to mid-twentieth century Christianity in the United States are under appreciated. He deserves a page in Wikipedia that more fully reflects his important accomplishments. As a new user, I'm still trying to figure-out how to cite my sources. There is much more information available from reliable sources on Eddy's life and contributions. Over time I hope to help build this page. Would you be able to contribute to this effort?

I am wondering about

The story of the 4th Wiseman

where you found Herman Matzen's death date? A reference is always a good idea for this sort of edit. Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 15:45, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. That's one of the articles that I consider (despite wikipedia policy) to be "mine" and I looked all over through my material and could not find the dates. As a thanks note I will make you first on my list of editor to receive my Christmas card that explains the origins of many X-mas stories.

Wrong information added

Hello. I think you probably made a good faith edit HERE, but it turns out you have both the cause of death and location of death wrong for Hubert Howe Bancroft. See: THIS for the correct information. Be sure you are adding footnotes whenever you add significant information to WP articles. Best regards, —Tim /// Carrite (talk) 19:43, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Upon further review, it seems you were actually correct about Walnut Creek, per "H.H. Bancroft, Historian, Dies at Age of 86: Prolific American Writer Passes Away at His Home in Walnut Creek," San Francisco Chronicle, vol. 112, no. 47 (March 3, 1918), pg. 1. Sorry about that. Both places are listed as place of death. It seems the front page story in the Chronicle is the most accurate. Carrite (talk) 20:45, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
