Surrealist Artist Raymond A. Whyte

edit

Trying to begin a page for a somewhat forgotten but significant artist- Raymond A Whyte. I think his life is worthy of a page. I am collecting as much information about him as I can, but have never done a page before and its daunting. Here's a couple of articles with some info to help anyone see what I mean...thanks

NB: Spellmangallery.com isn't a disinterested source. -- Hoary (talk) 07:50, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Understood. But I have it confirmed from a screengrab I have from Who's Who In American Art. Does It need to be a link?
and thank you for the citing help. I think I have fixed them all. BillE.Vader1963 (talk) 23:05, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
I was able to find much better and reliable resources for most everything that wasn' that Spellmann Gallery source, except for one list. Is it better to just leave the list off (for now) before review or do you think it's ok to submit for review? I would love to add photos of some of his work, but I'd probably do that later. Thanks!

Citing newspaper articles

edit

Here's a reference, as it currently appears:

"The Peninsula Times Tribune 17 Dec 1966, page 12". Newspapers.com. Retrieved 2024-01-21.

(achieved via {{Cite web |title=The Peninsula Times Tribune 17 Dec 1966, page 12 |url=https://www.newspapers.com/image/839653329/ |access-date=2024-01-21 |website=Newspapers.com |language=en}}).

This is how it should read:

"Artist displays work". The Peninsula Times Tribune. December 17, 1966. p. 12. Retrieved 2024-01-21 – via Newspapers.com.

Adding Categories...

I see a lot of places where this subject could be placed in categories but I am still having some trouble - are there any tips to simply getting him into a couple more ie. "Art Students League of New York".
