Sword of Shannara
Hello, ed. I've been quite busy lately, so I can only do small things with the Shannara articles and I think they're getting along quite well. However, I think you're putting too much trust on them, none of them are actually ready for even a GA, let alone an FA. Sorry to say it, but at least the nomination will bring us some more comments on how to improve it. Cheers, Zachary  crimsonwolf  12:49, 18 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey, Sword is already a GA. =) I agree that none of the others are ready...there just aren't enough sources!!!! I think that it is close to FA...I'm hoping that the nomination will get it to be a borderline FA and let it pass or someone ambles along with another source that flings it to FA quality. -talk- the_ed17  -contribs-  13:02, 18 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi thanks for the invite, I take it that means you accept my edits to your article as useful even though Shannara is one of the few fantasy sagas I've not yet got round to reading. I lurk at wp:fa, reading many of the candidate articles there and tweaking things when I see typos, poor English or other errors - though I rarely comment as to whether something meets FA as I feel one has to know a subject to say whether an article covers it well. However your article did make me wonder why I've not yet got around to reading that saga, but I'm sure you'll understand me not deciding whether or not to join your project until such time as I've read the books. TTFN  Ϣere  Spiel  Chequers 13:59, 18 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, yes, your edits helped a bunch! I had mixed up the brothers, but your half-fix (you only fixed one =]) drew my attention to my stupidity, so thanks! Feel free to comment on the FAC or change anything&mdash;it's okay. If something you change is wrong, mark it with a question mark in the edit summary and I'll check it! If you do start to read the saga, and you decide to start with Sword, you have to read The Elfstones of Shannara as well, even if you don't like Sword. Why? Because Sword is "a long, hard slog" (quoted from Swords first FAC)...but Elfstones, in my opinion, is 2x-3x better. I have a mini-booke-rating thing a=on my user page, if you want to take a look... And that's no problem if you don't want to join until you read the; I understand. Thanks for replying! -talk- the_ed17  -contribs- ' 14:25, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the invitation. I seem to have messed up your talk page by adding talkback earlier. Sorry about that, and for the late response. I'll try to help, but I don't think I will be very useful there since I don't have much experience at improving articles at a high level as FA. I don't know if I'm the right person for this. I might go and mess it up rather than improve it ;) C h a m a l    Talk   ±  12:00, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * No, you didn't mess it up; I am supposed to remove it after I've seen your message at your page anyway. =) If you do mess it up, it's no big deal&mdash;I can change it back! I just need an editor who has never seen the article before...I'm too close to it, and therefore I can't see some of the errors I made...Thanks and cheers, -talk- the_ed17  -contribs-  16:26, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Sorry I took a while to respond. Took a look at the work you've all done. Seems to be quite a lot; makes me feel guilty. However I find the plot still not quite as brilliant as it can be. But it will do. I'll try to help with the nom, but my time is limited at helping...

Shannara co-ordinator
Having just seen your self reversion. I for one would be quite happy for anyone (sensible) who is willing to take up such roles, regardless of what they are called. I might put back the label and prefix it with "informal" to indicate the possible provisional nature. More strength to your elbow.! :: Kevinalewis  : (Talk Page) /(Desk)  08:12, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Although, I would check with User:Pyfan who has signed up for the job at the WikiProject Novels/JobCentre. :: Kevinalewis  : (Talk Page) /(Desk)  08:17, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

If you want to volunteer for either position, that's cool. No need to inform me. :) Remember, however, that you don't need to be "coordinator" of anything in order to provide help others and/or give input where it's needed most within the project. You're doing a great job on the Shannara articles, and that's what counts. María ( habla  con migo ) 17:06, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Random Question...
When you edit a page the numbers that are beside it such examples as (-5) or (+5} red means bad and green means good, but what do they actually mean?

HairyPerry (talk) 14:02, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * How many characters were added or subtracted....like if you add a period to a page, you'll see a (+1). If you remove a periods, you'll see a (-1)... Is that clear? Or should I try to explain it again? =) <font face="Monotype Corsiva"><font color=font color="800000">-talk- the_ed17  -contribs-  16:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

No sir, that is clear enough. I have another question about signatures. i tried looking it up before I asked you, that way I could save you trouble, but I couldn't find out how. How do you get color on your signatures?

HairyPerry (talk) 17:31, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Alright, this explanation will be complicated. =) Create a sub-page, such as User:HairyPerry/signature. Then create your sig using HTML...if you want to use a version of my sig, see User:the_ed17/signature, or take a look through my sig's history for a different version. (Also, for different colors, see web colors).


 * After you like your sig, go to your Preferences, find the 'signature' box, and type in the box...then (don't forget this!) check the 'raw signature' checkbox thing...


 * If you need more help, I can make a basic one for you, and then you can modify it to your heart's content. =D Cheers! <font face="Monotype Corsiva"><font color=font color="800000">-talk- the_ed17  -contribs-  17:40, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Shannara/Alannon: Where does this go?
That stuff about Allanon, and what he symbolized we decided on in the previous talk session? Where should it go?

"Allanon represents all remaining knowledge in a living person from before the Great Wars, he also represents the Last of the Great Druids. The Druids were the Council of Advisors that advised and helped the Four Lands improve the quality of their lives through through the teaching and application of technology and magic, before the Great Wars."

I was just wondering where to put it...

At Swim Two Birds
Thanks for the review of At Swim-Two-Birds. All your points are well taken except the one about the writing of the book under a pseudonym/acceptance of the book on the strength of Graham Greene's recommendation - what exactly do you object to here? There are a couple of minor references I could fix. The one about O'Nolan writing the book on an Underwood typewriter is actually referenced under note 14, I believe, but I don't like having lots of notes all linking to the same page in a book because I think it makes the article look cluttered less readable. I'll put it back in if you think it's a good idea. I have no references for the Dylan Thomas and Anthony Burgess quotes and I don't think that there is a source for the Thomas quote. It has been printed on the covers of editions of the book for decades and I have never, ever seen a source for it, neither in secondary literature on O'Nolan nor on Thomas, which leads me to suspect that it was solicited from Thomas by Longmans' marketing department. That's just speculation on my part, and the only evidence for it would be in Longmans' files, but they were bombed during WW2 and in any case looking there would constitute WP:ORIGINAL RESEARCH. I do not intend to do much more serious work on the article since, as I said, I'm not even interested in the book. I just wanted to see what would happen if I sent the article for review. Thanks again. Lexo (talk) 08:49, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, I should have been more clear. I was talking about how the first sentence says that "...it was published..." while the next sentence says "...it was accepted for publication..."! My suggestion is to flip them and put the "accepted" section first.
 * Just add a/the reference to the end of that paragraph then.

In-universe
Your rewrite of the article didn't change that, unfortunately. WP:IN-U can be a very frustrating policy to deal with, but it's essential so that Wikipedia doesn't come across like a mega-fan site. I know this firsthand ... I took Dunder Mifflin to where it is now, a GA, from this, tagged in-universe (As a result it's now included in the list of exemplary articles at WP:WAF. Those are good examples to study, as I learned from them when redeveloping the Dunder Mifflin article.

The article's main problem is the lack of real-world perspective. I think your shot at a DYK is probably over, but you can certainly do what it takes to develop it to something with a shot at GA. Consider looking through interviews with the author to see if he talks about that element of the plot and why he chose to include it, or interviews or writings by noted fantasy critics to see what they say. That's what you need — critical analysis and commentary — if nothing else. Daniel Case (talk) 14:25, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Heh, look: we already have fans! :D :D :D
 * Maybe we should start a skit or something called BLOOOODY MUURDER!!!
 * And, uh, wondering why the bed bugs aren't biting? I'm not in bed. Meh. The 'holism is too severe to be cured. &mdash;<font face="Century Gothic" color="darkblue">La <font face="Century Gothic" color="dodgerblue">Pianista ( T • C • S • R ) 05:44, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Special, aren't we?
 * Maybe...the question is, could we even think of enough content for multiple "episodes"?
 * Slightly, but why would I care? Psh. You're nothing. Woman. =D =D =D =D
 * Like my edit summary for the "bed bugs" edit? &mdash;<font face="Monotype Corsiva"> the _ ed 17  &mdash; 05:46, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Hey, lay off the chauvinist. Psh. You're nothing. Man. =D =D =D How do you like it now? I'll turn everything back on you...like some demented mirror.
 * HA. HA. HA.
 * Sorry. Had to say that. Perhaps that'll be our idea?
 * But...siryuzlyz (I think that's how I spelt it last time)...I'm off to bed. Really. Now. Bye. -transmission ends- &mdash;<font face="Century Gothic" color="darkblue">La <font face="Century Gothic" color="dodgerblue">Pianista ( T • C • S • R ) 05:50, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Don't worry!
 * TangoBot to the rescue! He'll give you useless reports about RfA candidates you've never even met before, thereby patching up your injuries.

The Sword of Shannara
Hi! How's The Sword of Shannara coming along now? I saw it was not promoted to FA, so are you still working on getting it done in the future? Sorry about the very little help I could give, but I had not even read the book :D first time I heard of it, in fact. C h a m a l   Talk   ±  06:15, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm trying. MacLean25 e-mailed me some sources, so we'll see. A PR is open for it, so we'll see what happens....hopefully it gets to FA! Thanks for caring!
 * You ought to read it. It's a decent book...though if you want to start out with the best, read The Elfstones of Shannara...amazing book. =) &mdash;<font face="Monotype Corsiva"> the _ ed 17  &mdash; 06:28, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

about bloody murder
Are you making a new episode about bed bugs? I thought you were doing one about sinebot and also I know how to get sinebot's attention just simply don't sign your name! Can't wait for episode 2!Spittlespat (talk) 23:35, 27 September 2008 (UTC)


 * (e/c)Wow, we've got a die-hard fan, here, Ed! Erm, but Sinebot hath just missed ye. Hmm...
 * And Spittlespat, haven't you seen my response on my talk page yet? Have a look if you didn't. &mdash;<font face="Century Gothic" color="darkblue">La <font face="Century Gothic" color="dodgerblue">Pianista ( T • C • S • R ) 23:39, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Humph, we are going to have to make a secret page to keep our new episode ideas a secret! XD (And I know how to get SineBot to sign...it's just that we edited the talkpage before SineBot could get his/its next data dump, I think.) &mdash;<font face="Monotype Corsiva"> the _ ed 17  &mdash; 02:28, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Notification of Good Article review for Skull Bearers (Shannara)
Hello,

Unfortunately, the article Skull Bearers (Shannara) did not pass the good article review. You may see the details of the review, and suggestions for improvement, at Talk:Skull Bearers (Shannara)/GA1. The article has been removed from WP:GAN, although you may add it back to the bottom of the list if you would like a second opinion or if you would like it to be reviewed again after you make some changes. Thank you. &mdash;Politizer( talk • contribs ) 15:58, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Eh, it was worth a try. They were minor characters after all, so I figured that a short article might suffice...Thanks for reviewing it! Cheers, &mdash;<font face="Monotype Corsiva"> the _ ed 17  &mdash; 16:39, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Archiving reviews at WikiProject Novels/Peer review
Hi, I was wondering why you archived two WP:NOVELS reviews? The instructions say that requests may be archived "after they have been inactive for some time, or when the article is nominated as a featured article candidate". Some time, for me, wouldn't mean less than a week; you added reviews to both of these requests on the 24th, so I would not say they are as of yet inactive. Also, "peer-review=yes" is still present on the separate article's talk pages in the project banner, so the reviews are still technically open... María ( habla con migo ) 12:21, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Humph...It's a good question, because I don't remember why i archived them...busy work or something of the like? I'll revert myself and put them back on there. &mdash;<font face="Monotype Corsiva"> the _ ed 17  &mdash; 15:03, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
