Copper Country Strike of 1913–1914
OK, glad we settled the other article for now but you still haven't explained what your problems are with my edits (see [1]) on the Copper Country article, which by the way needs better sourcing. There's a lot of unreferenced claims. Quis separabit? 18:52, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
- Well, these sections/paragraphs are unsourced:
*While most of the early mines failed, a few became successful, and eventually several major mines became established. The Copper Country quickly became the first major copper mining region in the United States. By 1913, the majority of copper in the Copper Country was produced by three companies: the
*At the same time, miners were struggling from lack of pay and supplies. The strike was very costly for the WFM, which provided support to strikers based on need and family size. The WFM's coffers quickly emptied, leaving many miners and families living in poverty. A large number of families left the region entirely, looking for more work in the newly developing industrial centers of Detroit and Chicago. As the winter of 1913 began, the strike was weakening significantly.[citation needed]

- One cannot use Wikipedia as a reference. Wikipedia is unreliable because anybody can edit. One cannot use unreliable refs. Stop your reverting. Bgwhite (talk) 03:37, 7 May 2016 (UTC)
- I have protected the page so you cannot edit it. If you continue to add Wikipedia refs, you will be blocked. Read WP:USERGENERATED. When you finally understand this, the page will be unprotected. Bgwhite (talk) 01:36, 8 May 2016 (UTC)]
- I only respond where the discussion got started. Most editors are this way. I will ONLY respond here and will remove any message on my talk page about this subject. Once again, you cannot use ANY link to Wikipedia as a ref. Wikipedia is unreliable as it is contains user generated content. This is also the same with blogs, forums, newsgroup and other selfpublished material. The link I gave even said to not use Wikipedia as a ref. Bgwhite (talk) 05:38, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

Sorry about the hoax report. I have rescinded it and you can carry on. There was no international coverage, so I assumed it may have been made up.
Note the wording of the report says "MAY" be a hoax, not "IS" a hoax.

Ref says In the spring of 1918, the Finns sent two expeditions, which later joined together. One of these two expeditions had a strength of about 100 men and was lead by Dr. Thorsten Renvall (brother of Senator Heikki Renvall, who was the leader of the Finnish Senate aka the Finnish Government in Vaasa during Civil War).

Charles Myer
The paragraphs you restored to the Charles Moyer article are interesting, but don't even mention Charles Moyer. Without some reference to his personal involvement, they seem to me just a rambling off-topic digression which perhaps belongs in some other article. I assume you disagree, but if you consider that these statements belong in the Moyer article, please tie them better to Moyer. I see that you are from Hancock. I lived there for a couple of years a very long time ago. Thanks. Plazak (talk) 02:03, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi. Thankyou for your participation in the challenge series or/and contests. In November The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There will be over $4000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. If this would appeal to you and you think you'd be interested in contributing new articles on women during this month for your region or wherever please sign up in the participants section. The articles done may also count towards the ongoing challenge. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate and raise money to buy books about women for others to use, this is also fine. Help would also be appreciated in drawing up the lists of missing articles. If you think of any missing articles please add them to the sub lists by continent at Missing articles. Thankyou, and if taking part, good luck!♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:33, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
Hi. We're into the last five days of the Women in Red World Contest.

Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale!

Hello, I am the holder of this account and I contribute to Wikipedia on a sporadic basis, I usually use varied sources including my books on hand, which are a bit overabundant but nonetheless useful, I hope. I came on to edit an article today about the Calumet Charter Township, however, I noticed I was banned and I don't quite understand why.
