Talk:Michael Handler Ruby

Edit request

Disclosure: I have a COI as the subject of this proposed article. Disclosure: I used editors to create this article who previously did paid work for me.

The editors who created this article about me made a number of small mistakes, mostly involving references (see lengthy July 1 note on Michael Ruby1 talk page for an explanation of the creation of the article). I would appreciate it if I could correct these now.

The coding for all of the references needs to be redone. I have studied the coding for references, and I believe this is proper coding for each reference in order of appearance in the article, and the proper way for each reference to look in the References section:

In addition to fixing the references, I would like to make these additional small corrections:

--Under Life and Career, in the first paragraph, I’d like to improve the second sentence so it reads thus: His six older half-siblings and younger full sister include the mathematician entrepreneur Sandy Ruby and the Democratic Party activist Alice Germond.

--Under Life and Career, in the third paragraph beginning: Ruby didn’t start publishing xxx the book title should read Compulsive Words (instead of Compulive Word).

--Under Life and Career, in the last paragraph beginning: Other notable relatives xxx there should be a comma after Koestenbaum, so it reads xxx poet Wayne Koestenbaum, Broadway singing star xxx

--Under Ebooks, in the items Close Your Eyes and Inner Voices Heard Before Sleep, the extra spaces should be removed between the book title and the city.

--Under Chapbooks, similarly, in the items Foghorns and The Star-Spanged Banner, the same extra spaces should be removed.

--Under External Links, in the second entry, Recordings of multiple performances, there are a couple of problems. First, there appears at the beginning of the entry: [1]. It needs to be removed. Second, the wrong part of the line is hyperlinked, because of an extra ], which needs to be removed.:

--Under Category, I want to add: Category:Columbia High School alumni
