Flagicons

You recently reverted the addition of some flag icons to infoboxes relating to African-Americans in various US states. I dunno if you care but the same editor added the same flag in four others that you didn't revert, see [1]. (I personally don't know what the basis is for the reversion (I mean I believe you, but you didn't indicate the basis) so I'm not going to go revert them myself.) 64.26.99.248 (talk) 16:06, 28 November 2023 (UTC)

Could you lend me a hand with this entry? FloridaArmy (talk) 01:25, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Vicksburg massacre

Can I interest you in Peter Crosby (sheriff) and the Vicksburg massacre / Vicksburg riots? Discussed here and elsewhere, and I brought it and shared some other subjects on User:Star Mississippi's page noting some sources. FloridaArmy (talk) 03:48, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

FloridaArmy (talk · contribs), Star Mississippi (talk · contribs), OK thanks for the heads up. I will start Draft:Peter Crosby (sheriff). Are one of you working on the Vicksburg massacre? I hope y'all have a happy holiday and please feel free to reach out if you need help with anything else. PigeonChickenFish (talk) 04:17, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

I think it would be great if you did both. Quite a lot of overlap obviously. The schools in Vicksburg also need an article. So much to do!!! Happy Winter Solstice. Always darkest before the light? FloridaArmy (talk) 11:16, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi @PigeonChickenFish, and happiest of holidays to you and yours as well. I will, but it might be a bit delayed due to work/travel. If you get to it first, feel free Star Mississippi 17:48, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

It would be interesting to know what this document says. I started Draft:Joshua S. Morris. FloridaArmy (talk) 14:38, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Looks like someone else already started this one Draft:Vicksburg massacre PigeonChickenFish (talk) 21:38, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Yeah I started that! Thanks for expanding/creating the article properly, @PigeonChickenFish!

IOHANNVSVERVS, and thank you for starting it! Wishing you a happy holiday’s/winter solstice too! PigeonChickenFish (talk) 03:44, 14 December 2023 (UTC)

Draft:George Yates Freeman

Is this lawyer in Mississippi notable? Draft:National Catholic Conference For Interracial Justice is another subject I would be happy to have help with if it interests you. Happy Winter Solstice etc. FloridaArmy (talk) 13:47, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

I am not seeing much for G.Y. Freeman unfortunately. I will check out the other draft. PigeonChickenFish (talk) 06:31, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

William Furbish

Could I entice you to start an entry on this subject? I believe Furbush and Forbes also related. Good luck if you take it up! Happy New Year and thanks for all your great work. FloridaArmy (talk) 20:30, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

Hey FloridaArmy, is this William Furbish notable? I see reference to an early Scottish immigrant, but I don’t see RS citations. PigeonChickenFish (talk) 02:57, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

Okay. I knew there was scholarship on him and his family's history but it appears much it is genealogy societies and such. I think he is notable as the progenitor of such an inportant family but whether he meets Wikipedia Notability criteria is another matter. Thabks for having a look. Maybe Dunbar diaspora or some similar subject is the way to inckude him and others. FloridaArmy (talk) 03:27, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
