Hello,

Post notes on Wikipedia in a userpage sandbox so that we can
collaboratively look at this together and get it live so that it will be
easier to reach.

If you need help doing this, create a Wikipedia account, share the name
here, and then we can meet on-wiki.

I am user:bluerasberry on Wikipedia. Thanks for doing this. Yes, citing
newspapers is good.

yours,
