1799 vs 1800

Hi, you could be right that it's c1799 and not 1800, but since Wikipedia reports on what sources says, the source currently used in the article reports 1800. If you have another source that says different, please do add it. Until then we have to go by what the source provided says. Thanks. Green Cardamom (talk) 02:41, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, glad to hear from you.

I'm new to Wikipedia and am just finding my way. Once I figure things out I shall add more information to this page.

I have lots of information about Morgan Kavanagh. I am his great grandson.

That date of c1799 comes from a document, written by Morgan Kavanagh in 1844, which is in the British Library. Once I master the method for adding references I'll specify the source correctly.

Please confirm that you have seen this reply.

Hello. Confirmed. Glad you are contributing, that's a good story. I started the article but there is so little information available, glad you have access to more. Happy to help out with mechanics of adding things, if you don't mind, since Wikipedia is overwhelming at first. Green Cardamom (talk) 03:36, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article is updated. The spelling error was my introduction. The article is renamed to the more well known 2-name, but kept 3-name in the header for the record. Thanks. Anything else feel free to add or send my way. Can't recall how I became interested in the Kavanagh's, I read widely and often update Wikipedia articles on literary subjects.

Looks good. I removed the (()) around the references, but you did fine. Green Cardamom (talk) 17:49, 28 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The additions are fine, I made one minor change to the formatting of an external link in the last French-language footnote. It's not necessary but one way to improve the article is the lead section is a summary repeat of the article content, so readers have an article abstract. More info at WP:LEAD. If you plan to add more to the article it can be done later. Green Cardamom (talk) 20:29, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Happy to work with you. If you are interested, you can monitor web traffic for the article here over time. Green Cardamom (talk) 23:28, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Zach Vega:

Thanks for your message.

I understand what you are saying about reliable sources. I have recently contributed edits to several Wikipedia articles without difficulty.

I presume that you may be questioning my reference 2 (Glenda Turner). Please note that this is a legitimate verifiable publication. Its ISBN number is 0-9687538-0-9. If you search on Google you will find this book for sale by various book dealers. It is available in libraries.

I would appreciate any further comments which you might like to add.

Thank you
