Hell and than you for your edits. I reverted part of your recent edit here, as you did not provide any sources. Sources are needed for all material on Wikipedia, per
For example, Sewell stacked and arranged cups on her mailbox as a metaphor for Psalm 23:5 "You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings."(Cite web|url=https://biblehub.com/psalms/23-5.htm%7Ctitle=Psalm 23:5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.

- Hello again! Thank you for your excellent edits to the Gee's bend quilters articles. I notice you only using the Souls Grown Deep biographies as a source. It's less than ideal when biography material has a single source. If you can, have a look for further sources that also supports the claims. Thanks!
Welcome!

Hello, I'm Zachary Schr. I noticed that you recently removed content from Sam Doyle without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Thanks
Thanks for adding the paid editing templates to the pages you have edited. We might seem officious here at first, but rest assured that your contributions are appreciated. There is a "Wikipedia way" of doing things that can be off-putting at the start. Hang in there, we can always use subject editors like yourself. The many varied policies are what built Wikipedia. Also, feel free to reply on talk pages, as that is what they are for: talking!
RE: Sam Doyle, I located and added many sources. I didn't put back "self-taught" or "outsider", as I tend to agree with you that it's a marginalizing term and not really necessary for someone in so many notable museum collections. I did locate the fact that he dropped out of the Penn school in grade nine, so if someone did add back the "self-taught" term, it would be correct as grades school art education isn't very formative, and he did indeed seem to start his art career very late in life (in his 50s, If I recall the sources correctly). In any case, welcome aboard and do not hesitate to ask for editing help as we all edit collaboratively here. It's coincidental that you came along now, as it was only a few months ago that two other editors and I had an impromptu article creation drive that created many of the recent articles on Gee's Bend quilters! Your assistance in expanding them is most appreciated.

Did you know that new articles can get extra attention when presented on the Main page in the DYK (Did you know ...?) section?. It's too late for this one, - "new" means a week, but for the next one, let's go for it. I'll watch
Hi thank you! I would like to start including infoboxes, but I'm not sure how to upload photos of the artists. The organization that I work for owns the copyright of most of the photos of the artists, but Wikipedia won't allow me to upload them if they aren't mine, specifically. Any ideas?

DYK for Henry Speller
On 31 March 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Henry Speller, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the visual style of African-American artist Henry Speller, who was also an accomplished blues musician, was described as "blues aesthetic"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Henry Speller. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Henry Speller), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
