Plan of Attack
I have narrowed down my focus to two men that had a lot to do with the innovation of printing early on in the technology's history. Peter Schoeffer and Bi Sheng were both very influential in the making and working of early print material and I would like to gather much more information on both of these two and make that information more accessible to the general public. I plan to do that by gathering information and notes about their lives throughout extensive research.

Peter Schoeffer was a printer in the German city of Mainz. Before he was adored for his work in helping create the 42 Line Bible with Johann Fust, Schoeffer was the apprentice of Johann Gutenberg. He ended up testifying against Gutenberg in a case that would ultimately lead to Gutenberg not obtaining the credit that should have been his. I would like to dive more into the personal side of that story and try to get as personal as I can regarding information on Peter Schoeffer.

Bi Sheng made the first known movable type using Chinese porcelain. Known as a common man, there is not much information on Sheng's Wikipedia page. He brought about a giant change in technology and I feel as if more people should know about the life and times of Bi Sheng. I will do my bests to gather as much information on Sheng as I can because his contributions to early print technology were more significant than he gets credit for.
 * Peter Schoeffer is a good choice. Or even Johann Fust. The Fust page has a fair amount of information on it, but none of it is cited. What resources/references have you found for Schoeffer? Also, be sure to sign all of your comments. --Theredproject (talk) 17:22, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

Hey Anthony- i found a book that might be really helpful for you to do some more research on Johann Fust. Its called A history of the art of printing from its invention to its wide-spread By Henry Noel Humphreys

Although it was written in 1868- this might include some information on the artist that isnt added to his wiki page. There is about 12 results when you search how many times hes was mentioned in the book. Of course, youll have to purchase the book if you dont want to read it online but it will be good reference. It seems like this artist was well respected in Mayence, Germany who was very involved in the printing press. It also talks about his early life and he was approximately born about 1395 (Gutenberg time) and so on, about his family. That will play a big part to his article.

Take a look at this book too Johannes Gutenberg: Printing Press Innovator By Sue Vander Hook

It was written in 2010 which is early so thats good. This book talks about his partnership with Peter Schoffer- maybe that makes a difference to the history behind his work and what hes all about.

Reflection Paper
Hello Anthony. I don't have your reflection paper. Please send me an email immediately, I want to give you some info. I tried emailing you with the address in CUNYfirst, but you said you didn't get it. --Theredproject (talk) 16:37, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
