When you block a user....
it's a good idea to look over their recent edits (they were the cause of the block, right?) and see if any of them inflicted damage on mainspace material, and revert same. SamHB (talk) 17:00, 7 September 2015 (EDT)
Olive branch petition
While I like what you have written, some aspects of the sentence style led me to do a Google search. Sections of the article appear to be copied verbatim from other sources, like the Encyclopedia Americana or some books by Charles Knight. (The Knight books appear to have been plagiarized later by Joseph Beale; it just never ends :-)
This doesn't bother me in the least; I think what you have written is fine. But you need to be aware that the administrators really want things to be in your own words.
