Proposed changes

Wikimedia received an email with some suggested changes to the article. I explained that the ideal process is to list the changes on the article talk page; they tried and failed, so I offered to list the points. (I will work with them to coontribute to this discusison.)

The suggestions follow:

1st. I have never described myself as a cartoonist...my work is usually described as 'drawings' and myself as a visual Artist (see sub-heading on the cover of my Penguin books 'Drawings by Mary Leunig'.

2nd. Living place....for privacy reasons...citing the small place of Merton as my abode could be changed to 'lives in Strathbogie Ranges Victoria'.

3rd. Drawing description...could be changed to ...'her work often includes political, personal and feminist themes that are humorous and sometimes confronting.

Hope you can consider these ideas.....Mary Leunig.

These seem very fair and easy to do.Nickm57 (talk) 23:08, 22 May 2017 (UTC). And the refs also reflect these changes.Nickm57 (talk) 23:15, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
