Talk:Gaisford Prize

Untitled
The article states that only the Essay and Dissertation Prizes are now announced in the Gazette, implying that the prizes for Greek Prose and Verse Composition are defunct. The prizes for Greek Prose and Verse are, however, still announced in the Handbook for Classics Mods (2013 edition here ). The Handbook refers candidates to the Classics Office for the texts to be translated; I contacted them (27 July 2015) because I could not find the latest edition of the Handbook online, and they confirmed by email that the prizes for Greek Prose and Verse Composition continue to be offered. I know Wikipedia is not meant to include new research, but this was meant only to ascertain facts that are presumably available in a public source (the most recent handbook) which I could not locate.

It seems useful to have the precise terms of the Essay and Dissertation prizes set out, but the last paragraph of the article should probably be amended in some way to avoid false implication. I was not sure how to address this without a public source for citation. ˜˜˜˜
