Tip of the Month:

  • Researching historical women writers who used pseudonyms requires careful investigation across multiple sources, as many women adopted pen names to avoid gender bias and judgment (e.g., being labeled a bluestocking) and, ultimately, to get published.

Source confusion

[edit]

Hi Peaceray. Thanks so much for your help with the Natalie Jay Banus page. The instructions I have are that I cannot use her memoir as a source for information. As her ghostwriter, I know it is the single most authoritative source on her life, it is entirely uncontested and without it I am very limited in what I can say. Also advised that I can't use Famousfix, Instagram, Reddit and IMDb as sources. That limits the information further, almost to nothing. Is it the case that I should delete all this information? Just need to check as it's probably not worth her having a page in that case. Thanks again for your help. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Natalie_Jay_Banus CeaselessSearch (talk) 10:28, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@CeaselessSearch: Unfortunately for this matter, I am traveling & will have limited time (currently responding from at a Field Museum cafeteria).
I would include this source:

unusual edits which mentioned you

[edit]

Maybe there's a good reason but I'll just note that an apparently new editor started their talk page by first adding, and then adjusting, their own welcome note from you [1] Andrew Lancaster (talk) 08:32, 24 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Andrew Lancaster: Thank you! Since the copied welcome message bore my signature & misrepresented that it came from me, I deleted that page. I added a shorter welcome message & a warning about copying material without proper attribution, & also left instructions so that that editor can welcome themself using {{Welcome-menu}} should they wish to refer the many links in that message. You can see my last post here. Peaceray (talk) 15:50, 24 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
