Hi! I'm the Wikipedian In Residence at the Smithsonian Archives of American Art and I'm recruiting Wikipedians who are passionate about art to participate in furthering art coverage on Wikipedia. I am planning contests and projects that will allow you access, no matter where you live, to the world's largest collection of archives related to American art. Please sign up to participate here, and I look forward to working with you! SarahStierch (talk) 00:14, 13 June 2011 (UTC) |
The Phantom Tollbooth illustration
[edit]That's exactly the sort of source which is terrific to the originator (you) but completely un-verifiable, and therefore can't be used in wikipedia. Can you imagine what sort of glop would be added to articles if "I heard so-and-so say this at a public gathering" was allowed as a source? I shudder to think of it! I really think that unless you can find a linkable (is that a word?) we shouldn't include the statement in the story. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 15:53, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
