User talk:BardofcornishThanks, I'd personally like to have a Common critical subjects section rather than a theme section, but I don't know what others would think. I think it would easily cover whatever users wanted in a theme section, but have a better focus on scholars and what they think. I've taken a break from the article for awhile, though. I don't like fights. I use wikipedia for fun, and if it isn't fun, than why bother? Wrad 23:01, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
Shakespeare project - New collaboration debateThe Shakespeare project's first collaboration has ended in success, with William Shakespeare reaching FA status! Congrats to all who chipped in! We also had success in our second collaboration Romeo and Juliet, which is now a GA. Our next step is deciding which article to collaborate on next. Please join the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Shakespeare#Next Collaboration to help us choose. Thanks. Wrad 04:12, 25 August 2007 (UTC) The Shakespeare Project's new collaboration is now to bring Hamlet to GA status.

Congratulations!
Congratulations on your recent adoption, Bardofcornish, and welcome to Wikipedia! I saw that you have expressed an interest in being adopted by an experienced editor. Being an experienced editor myself, I accepted your request. Whether you want to learn about wiki markup, find something to do, or just talk to somebody, I'm the person to see about it - just leave a message on my talk page. Remember, I am willing to help you and make your time here more enjoyable. Feel free to ask me any questions you might have, and remember to "be BOLD!"- I'm here to help you; no question is a stupid one. In the mean time, here are some pages that you might find helpful, in case you haven't already gotten the official welcoming:
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place Well, it seems to me that you want to get the job done. And I admire that. If you'd like I would be glad to help you citing the sources. Why I'd pick you? Well, because I was cruising around and I came to your page and I saw that you were a very interested editor. If that helps. But again, if you need anything, don't hesitate to leave a message on my talk page. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 22:12, 02 September 2007 (UTC)
So are you having any problems? Or have you been finding your way through Wikipedia? -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 22:57, 03 October 2007 (UTC)
HeyThanks for signing. I really appreciate it. Heads up, I fixed your Barnstar. I'll talk to you later and happy editing. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 02:02, 07 October 2007 (UTC) Cleanup templatesJust to let you know that most cleanup templates, like "unreferenced", "fact", "cleanup"etc., are best not "subst"ed. See WP:SUBST for more details. Regards, Rich Farmbrough, 16:18 23 October 2007 (GMT). ThanksThanks for joining the Literature project. Hopefully we can do some real good in this area. Wrad 01:15, 5 November 2007 (UTC) RE: Long time no seeI agree. Its been quite sometime. What have you been up to? And I hope your having an easy time here on Wikipedia. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 22:43, 19 November 2007 (UTC)  ThinkBlue has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy editing! That's good. You're improving your skills here. Welcoming users is another form of way of helping others, keep up the good work. As for me, I've been active with the wrestling project, joined the Saw project (the film series) and have been warning users of their vandalism. Listen, if there's anything thing you need, don't hesitate to ask me or anyone. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 23:03, 19 November 2007 (UTC) TempestI see you're editing The Tempest. Can we agree that I won't touch anything above the "Performance History" heading and you don't touch anything below it (except "sources", of course) for the next hour or so, to avoid edit conficts?

Ralbot (talk) 09:06, 27 February 2008 (UTC) Writing for the SignpostHello. You expressed interest in writing for the Wikipedia Sign?post (sorry for the delay in responding). I'm sending this message to everyone who commented, so if you have any questions I haven't answered, please feel free to ask me, and I'll try to respond to specific questions. Essentially, what I'm looking for is writers who can step in and write on subjects that are newsworthy from week-to-week. The content of the stories obviously varies each week depending on what's happening; this is discussed below. There are three major parts to writing an article:
Part 1: Choosing a topicAs said above, topics will vary from week-to-week. For this week, these particular issues may be newsworthy:
For more ideas, and for ideas in the future, check the tip-line -- there are usually some good ideas there. Once you've decided on a topic, make sure to sign up for it in the newsroom, under "Special stories", so that users aren't duplicating each others' work (though multiple writers are certainly free to work together on a story). Part 2: Writing the articleNow, you've decided on a topic and signed up for it. To write it, create a subpage in your userspace. For my story this week on the bureaucratship candidacies, for example, I'll create it at User:Ral315/Bureaucratship candidacies. The name isn't a big deal, of course -- I'll change it if necessary. Formatting the story isn't important; for your first article, you should mainly focus on writing a good story, and I'll take care of the formatting when we publish. Try to write it in a newspaper-like tone, avoiding personal comments and opinions in favor of straight-forward facts. The size of an article varies based on what the story is, but a good minimum goal for most stories is two-to-three good paragraphs. Longer articles are even better, so long as they're well-written. Part 3: Submitting the articleNow, all you have to do is post a link to the article in the newsroom, where you signed up for it earlier. That's it! You're done! Again, if you have any questions at all, please contact me, and I'll try to respond as soon as possible. Thanks for your interest in writing for the Signpost.

Ralbot (talk) 07:51, 27 June 2008 (UTC) Romeo and Juliet collaborationGreetings! The current Shakespeare Project Collaboration is Romeo and Juliet. This project is currently going a thorough peer review and copyedit before moving on to FAC. The link to the peer review is Wikipedia:Peer review/Romeo and Juliet/archive1. Have a look! « Diligent Terrier Bot (talk) 20:43, 19 July 2008 (UTC) Motto of the dayHello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help. When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this. If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing!

Sent by §hepBot (Disable) at 04:18, 11 November 2008 (UTC) per request of Wrad (talk) Request to participate in University of Washington survey on tool to quickly understand Wikipedians’ reputationsHello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington. In April, we met with some local Wikipedians to learn what they would like to know about other editors’ history and activities (within Wikipedia) when interacting with them on talk pages. The goal of those sessions was to gather feedback to help design an embedded application that could quickly communicate useful information about other Wikipedians. We have now created a few images that we feel represent some of what our participants thought was important. We would appreciate it if you took a few minutes of your time to complete an online survey that investigates whether or not these images would be useful to you. Your quick contribution would be very valuable to our research group and ultimately to Wikipedia. (When finished, the code for this application will be given over to the Wikipedia community to use and/or adjust as they see fit.) Willing to spend a few minutes taking our survey? Click this link. Please feel free to share the link with other Wikipedians. The more feedback, the better! The survey is completely anonymous and takes less than 10 minutes to complete. All data is used for university research purposes only. Thank you for your time! If you have any questions about our research or research group, please visit our user page.
