Project Links

Really interesting ideas for a project. Next step is to narrow it down by finding some good sources. Check out scholar.google.com to check out what kind of academic research there is to be had. Debaser42 (talk) 02:21, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

Feedback

Hello Mtomao. I reviewed your edits to Fashion blog and found them to be improvements to the existing article. My only advice is to avoid what we call wiki-puffery when presenting facts. For example where you state something as "extremely useful", this is mostly an opinion and generally is not supported by a reference. Additionally if a source calls itself extremely useful, this would not be a sourced fact we could include. Only if a source, independent of the site self proclaiming their usefulness, attributed it as such could we echo the sentiments, and then we should attribute the independent source. For example we might say: "according to some independent source, such and such blog is extremely useful". Good job overall. My76Strat (talk) 04:28, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

Hey!

Here is the link to the general ambassador program that I was telling you about the other day. If you are interested, the links for each type of ambassador lead to the process with which you could use to apply. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask, and if I do not respond within a few days, feel free to leave a note on my talk page. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 07:52, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
