To have a sense of what you should be aiming at as you work on your article, you are advised to look at relevant good articles and featured articles. A recent featured article about an author is Mario Vargas Llosa, for instance. This was written by a UBC class last semester. You may also want to consult the Literature Wikiproject. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 09:51, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

reminders: regular editing and plan
Two reminders, from our project page:

Over the course of the semester, you need to log in and make at least one edit, again however minor, to your article twice a week.

By September 19, each group should have their plan in place, and have written it up on their article's talk page.

Another reminder about regular editing: So far you have only made eight edits. Do get up to speed... If you are having any problems, please drop me a note. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 19:07, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

October
Bellagiovannini, I see that the last time you made an edit was well over a week ago... --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 20:33, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

And a week later still no further edits... (and fewer than ten over the entire semester so far). --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 08:19, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Still nothing nine days later... and still fewer than ten edits over the entire semester. What's up? --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 23:23, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Your message
Just to say that I moved your message from the article talk page to individual editors' talk pages. This is because you'd put your email address there, and I thought it was best that that wasn't broadcast too much, if for no other reason so that you can avoid unwelcome spam.

Meanwhile, I hope you're recovering. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 23:58, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Hadn't thought of that.... Many thanks for both your helpfulness and good wishes. Hope to see you on Wednesday. --Bellagiovannini (talk) 04:08, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

double-check paraphrases: important!
Bellagiovannini, I note that you added a paragraph to your article that I question on its talk page. As I say there, please go back to the original, and if possible provide it on the talk page. We don't want to run the risk of plagiarism by making our paraphrases too close to the source text. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 20:57, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Also please note my comments and questions about sourcing that particular text (Conflicts of Interest): who are you quoting? It doesn't seem to be Ruiz de Burton, for instance. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 20:58, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

María Ruiz de Burton
Guys, you've had two reviews of this article. Please take note and attend to Karanacs's and Nancy's suggestions! This article is going to GAN, and you need to get it shipshape! --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 19:17, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
