Talk:John Edward Williams

message: The following sentences have been copied verbatim from the biographical sketch in the nyrb re-issue of "Stoner" (p. 281): "Despite a talent for writing and acting, Williams flunked out of a local junior college after his first year. He worked with newspapers and radio stations in the Southwest for a year, then reluctantly joined the war effort..." 107.18.186.244 (talk) 23:16, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Plagiarism ? 

message: Leaving explanatory information here, as I'm changing a critical detail in the biography, and don't want it peremptorily changed back having dug around for this info!  
Williams' birthplace is listed in the sidebar as Wichita Falls, TX. And yet the first line of the "Life" section on this page says nothing of this, it simply states something else: "Williams was raised in Clarksville, Texas," with a link to his New York Times obituary. 
But that's not what the NYT obituary says! And in fact these biographical details are the wrong way round (although the incorrect birthplace of Wichita Falls has now, understandably, been repeated on dozens of online blogs and news articles, presumably drawing from this Wiki page). 
Williams was born in Clarksville, and then raised in Wichita Falls. 
This is not only what is actually stated (!) in that New York Times obit ("John Edward Williams [...] was born in Clarksville, Tex." It's also explained in some detail in his biography, Chapter 1: 
https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=Ga9lDwAAQBAJ&newbks=0&lpg=PP1&pg=PT15#v=onepage&q&f=false
— "It was in Clarksville that Amelia Walker met JE Jewell ... Nineteen months later, she gave birth to a son, John Edward." 
— "J.E Jewell was comfortable with impermanence ... Together the two men led their families to the next destination, Wichita Falls, the scene of the first memories of the little boy who would become John Edward Williams"
It goes on to state that they were following the Texas Oil Boom taking off in Wichita Falls, and that Jewell "found an apartment [there] for his wife and infant son" while "their eldest daughter, Emma, stayed behind to teach in Clarksville."  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kieronshaw (talk • contribs) 22:27, 20 November 2022 (UTC)

Talk:John Francis Dodge

message: The article starts like this: "Dodge was born in Niles, Michigan where his father rented a fish and chips shop. ..." And on the page for his brother, Horace_Elgin_Dodge, I read: "He was born in Niles, Michigan, on May 17, 1868.[2] His father owned a foundry and machine shop." This discrepancy is not entirely removed when reading further on, but I guess that their father has embarked on one or both of these endeavours during the time the two brothers were raised. Put another way, the part of the article describing the activities of their father should read the same on both pages (maybe he first had the fish&chips shop, and the boiler plant thereafter? just a wild guess).

Talk:Mangzhong

message: I am a newbie, and this came up as a suggested edit. So I just want to explain my changes in case there are any problems. 
I found the flow of the page a bit disjointed, and a few bits repeated themselves. There also wasn't a clear lead section. So I ended up changing the sections around a bit. 
*I mostly kept the same wording but moved them to different places. But I did reword a the section that became the lead (part of what was already in the lead, and partly from the 'physical phenomena' section. 
*There were a few bits that I didn't understand the meaning of, so I left them (the 'cognate of Mang chung' part in particular).
*I moved the lang-zh template with the Chinese characters up to the top sentence. I wasn't sure if the Japanese and Korean names should go in the same spot. So I left that at the bottom of the lead paragraph.
*I moved the 'history and origin' section to the top of the body because that felt like a better start to the body section. I added in a section from the original lead section here, because it seemed related.
*I wasn't sure what to do with the 'physical phenomena' section - I largely pillaged this section to add to the lead, so it is now quite small and probably not worth a whole section for itself.
References
*I did not add any references, and most of the parts I moved around and reworded were unreferenced.
*There was one reference in the lead section, and it was at the beginning of a sentence, that started "The ninth solar term, known as 'REF' Mangzhong..."  so I put it at the end of that sentence. BUT I didn't check what the reference said, because my browser warned me about it not being a safe link. What should I do in this situation?
