If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Sateurni (talk) 01:34, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

[edit]

To be clear, I'm always pleased when someone expands an article that I started. But I don't think you're going to do very well on the Carl Day article.

Because Day died so young and had such a short political career, there just isn't very much coverage of him. Believe me, I looked.

I've checked the sources you mentioned, and each of those mentions Day but isn't really about him. None of them has any information about Day that isn't already in the article. Tons of information about Berea College and the history of segregated education in Kentucky, yes, but that's not what the article about Day should be about.

Maybe more sources exist about him offline?

(Oh, and out of curiosity - you said you saw some bias in the article? I tried very carefully to avoid that; could you be more specific?) DS (talk) 19:01, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
