Hello, Blakec25, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Territory of Hawaii, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

 
The "show preview" button is right next to the "publish changes" button and below the edit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you. Jessicapierce (talk) 01:01, 21 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Notes

edit

Hi! I have some notes for you:

Information on exactly who donated and how much is seen as information that's too detailed for Wikipedia's purposes - you can give a general number of how much he received in donations, however. When it comes to the committees he served on, this is definitely good information to include! Can you work this into prose format?

Other than this, my only other note is the standard one: definitely try to find more sourcing to help back up claims and flesh out the article, since it's still going to be on the smaller side even with your contributions. That said, I think that you have a good draft going here! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:04, 11 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
