Editing Sherlock Holmes the Musical stub[edit]

Hello! I'm a student at Cornell University and for my course, Online Communities, we are editing Wikipedia articles. A couple of my classmates and I have taken on the project of updated the current Sherlock Holmes: The Musical stub. If anyone has any suggestions for us, please let me know! -- Thanks Jnd1091 (talk) 15:16, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There are lots of useful guidelines at the WP:MUSICALS article structure page [[1]]. -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:48, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Roles and original cast[edit]

The roles should go on the left side, with the names of the cast members on the right. -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:48, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Roles and original cast[edit]

I linked cast members to their reference on this page. I also changed the order to Role: Actor name to follow the advice from the talkpage. Jnd1091 (talk) 03:40, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Plot synopsis[edit]

The most important missing section is a full-blown plot synopsis. -- Ssilvers (talk) 17:03, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I worked my way through the score/libretto and pieced together the plot. Thank you for all your help so far, it's been very useful having a more experienced Wikipedian on our side! Quainiac (talk) 04:16, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Related Musicals[edit]

I transferred from our draft (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Quainiac/draft_Sherlock_Holmes_the_musical) the "related musicals" section, updated with links to other pages. Jnd1091 (talk) 03:43, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I added the original cover from Baker Street the Musical to add diversity of images to the page Jnd1091 (talk) 04:21, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Background[edit]

I added an interesting remark from Leslie Bricusse, creator of Sherlock Holmes the Musical that discusses how there have been many artistic adaptations of the Sherlock Holmes stories. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jnd1091 (talk • contribs) 04:12, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Critical Response/Old Vic Revival[edit]

We added sections on critical response as well as the 1993 revival at the old vic. Quainiac (talk) 04:22, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Images[edit]

Added images of Old Vic, Baker Street and Ron Moody Jnd1091 (talk) 04:40, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Review comments[edit]

This is a good start. Add more references (I see unreferenced paragraphs) and you can nominate your work at WP:DYK for front page exposure. Note that this nom has to be done within five days of the move (so, within five days of today). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 18:32, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
