replies: text: , I am not understanding your question. What needs to be checked? I have made a lot of edits to the article, checking sources to content, improving sources, etc. so I am not sure that there is still an issue, but I wanted to check in with you so I don't miss something.–CaroleHenson (talk) 22:46, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

message: An IP user added some content that Crumpler also taught in Atlanta. I am not finding a reliable source for that. It cannot be added to other cited content where that's not covered, so I rolled back the edit here.
If anyone finds a source, I am happy to double check it is reliable and properly format the citation and language. Just leave a note here.–CaroleHenson (talk) 02:01, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

message: I made several edits to the article here, so I thought I would summarize where I am coming from.
* :Fairview Cemetery is actually a disambiguation page, so I changed the link to Fairview Cemetery (Boston, Massachusetts). There were a lot of links to that article, I think I removed 1 or 2 links.
* In general, there are a lot of links in the page (See MOS:OVERLINK). A lot. There still are. So, I trimmed down the multiple instances of the same links and links to common words. Perhaps the number of links could be trimmed down by only linking to the first instance (e.g., American Civil War, Boston - especially where they are relatively common words/phrases)?
* African American does not need to be hyphenated, that's actually dated usage. See CJR style guide for race. (Even though the main article is African Americans, there are still some subordinate articles and categories with the hyphen. Perhaps a discussion for another day.)
* This may be more of a personal preference, particularly for pages that already have a lot of links, but I find it is easier to read articles without red links... again "particularly" where there may not be sufficient notability for separate articles. For instance, I don't think there is much information published by reliable sources for articles about her husbands. See MOS:REDLINK
* Changed freed slaves to freedmen and freedwomen, my thought process is similar to slaves-->enslaved people.
* Edit "intense racism" to "intense racism"
* Language for the link similar to what a reader will find: "...to a predominantly African-American community street to "... to a predominantly African American community
::When I saw the link for "street", I thought the link would go to Street, which seems silly to link to.–CaroleHenson (talk) 19:20, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

message: , I am so sorry that I reverted your edit. I did it accidentally and didn't know it until I went to my watchlist and saw that I made a change to this article. I have put it back in.–CaroleHenson (talk) 02:03, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
