Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=589949558 your edit] to Snow Crash may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just [ edit the page] again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=edit&preload=User:A930913/BBpreload&editintro=User:A930913/BBeditintro&minor=&title=User_talk:A930913&preloadtitle=BracketBot%20–%20&section=new my operator's talk page].

Great job at the addition at Snowcrash! We definitely like to note references and conversations that are going on between authors works. In general, as you probably have already noted, Wikipedia's coverage of literature topics is rather spotty. Its great to have another graduate student (soon to be PhD) in English on the site, we need all the help we can get. Some important locations for finding out more about were we need help on Wikipedia related to literary topics include Wikipeda:WikiProject Novels, WikiProject Children's Literature, WikiProject Poetry and WikiProject Literature (in order of activity, and responsiveness of communities). We definitely need people willing to expand topics relevant to scholarship and that can access (as a reader and writer about) literary scholarship.

I also noticed from your CV on your website that you work with Digital Humanities and William Blake. I am actually collaborating with the William Blake Archive on Wikimedia projects to improve the treatment of Blake and Blake Archive materials on the site. For more information check out WP:Blake or my blog (which hasn't been updated in a while. There are some pretty significant gaps in Blake Coverage, and I would appreciate the help of several more people working in the area :)

Anyway, make sure that on Wikipedia you continue to Be Bold, add valuable verifiable information and, most importantly of all, enjoy editing! Happy editing, and hope to see you around more, Sadads (talk) 19:21, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
