 * 1) Penny, this is less an application than a thank you for such a program. I am a former resident of Rome and have contributed on the Latin alphabet, Latin pronunciation (primarily on Church Latin), and on Vatican City. However, I lack even the 500 edits, much less 1,000, although I've been around almost 9 years. When I saw the limit of 25 one year memberships, I determined not to formally "apply", lest better qualified editors be turned away...but if after a certain time, you find the possibility of loosening the initial restrictions, I'd be delighted to be considered.William J. &#39;Bill&#39; McCalpin (talk) 03:19, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) Interested especially in Greek mythology and generally in ancient Greece; I've edited some pages about figures of the Greek myths (in particular those about Telephus and Palamedes on the Italian Wikipedia, which I've been contributing to expand) and access to the Loeb library would be precious especially for the collections of fragments of the Old Greek theatre and to help me to find references in other Greek/Latin works.

 * 1) Primarily a Freemasonry-focused editor, where much of the symbolism (and sometimes the history) is traced to Classical sources, so it would allow me to source where things were drawn from historically.  I have varied interests, however, and could use the material to work on some of the authors in the LCLs, like Josephus and Philo. MSJapan (talk) 04:22, 1 September 2015 (UTC)

 * 1) I ask for access for Wikiquote, specially the English and Japanese one. I've worked on quotes from the classics, both to review old contributions by someone else and add new one by myself. For example, to write up ja:q:オウィディウス (Ovid), I consulted Loeb online using their preview mode, not just satisfied just from copying and pasting from the English Wikiquote compatible, and in the result to correct one citation on q:Ovid too. As my Loeb Classics free preview is now over so that access granted will be very helpful. My own field is philosophy though, I'm working on other subjects too including literary and science for the sake of balanced development of our project: my recent contributions to the Japanese Wikiquote include Eucleides, Ovid, some addition to Julius Caesar and Hippocrates (see q:ja:Special:contributions/Aphaia, there I have 1000+ edits). --Aphaia (talk) 07:47, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

 * 1) Hello! I've been editing on Wikipedia for something like 10 years now. My interests are somewhat eclectic but I believe access to the Loeb Library would help immensely with a few of my major interests: Christian history, biblical scholarship, stoicism, Aristotelian philosophy, and 200 BCE - 200 CE Roman culture. Ehrman's newer translation of the Apostolic Fathers and the later Josephus volumes would be especially valuable. I'm a member of WikiProject Christianity and most of my articles and many of my edits have been in that area. Pleonic (talk) 21:50, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

 * 1) I have been active on Wikipedia for 2 1/2 years, and have written nearly 20 articles, as well as contributed to many others (with more than 10,000 edits), mostly in the fields of historical-research, as also biographies on important personages, and on Jewish customs. I have the utmost respect for academic journals and the articles they contain, and always strive to cite reliable sources whenever writing about a given topic. Having access to this venue will greatly improve my ability to cite reliable sources and to help make Wikipedia a more credible knowledge base.Davidbena (talk) 14:08, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

 * 1) Hi there, I've been a Wikipedia editor for 11 years and I studied classical history at university. I'd like access to the Loeb library to use classical sources to improve some specific articles, beginning with the currently flagged Masinissa, which I'd use the Loeb edition of Livy's History of Rome to do. Thanks very kindly.  A  Train ''talk 22:22, 9 August 2016 (UTC)

 * 1) I'm a member of the Classical Greek and Roman Wikiproject. I am working on a new article for Romulus and Remus which currently needs much help.  Here is my current draft.  There are SO many articles of interest to this project that lack attribution to some, often great degree.  I have some text sources I can use, but mostly I rely on the internet.  The Loeb translations are generally superior and the shear number of primary sources is enormous.Informata ob Iniquitatum (talk) 00:43, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
