@Theroadislong: Thank you so very much for the information!! DonneyC (talk) 08:52, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

Sorry if you got notifications multiple times, I am practicing. DonneyC (talk) 20:57, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

A little thing

Wikipedia has "articles" rather than "pages." This is a minor distinction, but it reminds editors that subjects of articles do not "own" the articles that are about them. The article you intend to edit has a tag at the top stating that more references are needed, so think of that as part of your efforts. Good luck. David notMD (talk) 09:48, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

@David notMD: Sorry, it was the figurative/colloquial use of apostrophe "s". DonneyC (talk) 07:00, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

Add photos

Crowder College (note that I Wikilinked the name to the college by using double brackets [[ ]], making it appear blue) has no photos. Consider taking photos of important/distinctive buildings, adding those to Wikipedia Commons, and then adding to the article. David notMD (talk) 09:53, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
