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 (talkcontribs) 09:52, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

reminders: regular editing and plan

[edit]

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.

--jbmurray (talkcontribs) 08:07, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Another reminder about regular editing: So far you have only made two edits. Do get up to speed... If you are having any problems, please drop me a note. --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 19:11, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

October

[edit]

You've still made less than ten edits... and the last one was almost a fortnight ago. --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 08:18, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Heathermary, nine days later, and still no more edits... what's up? --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 23:29, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

FA-Team

[edit]

We have been adopted by the renowned FA-Team! Please add the project page to your watchlists, and feel free to ask FA-Team members if you have any queries or need help. --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 20:17, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

progress?

[edit]

Heathermary, I'm a touch worried... As is verified in our progress reports, the rate of advance of Sandra Cisneros is slowing down... from 69 edits in the first period, to 30 and now 20. C'mon, don't give up... --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 00:28, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Vitale reference

[edit]

Hi. See my query here about the Vitale reference. --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 03:25, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank-you!

[edit]

Hey, thank-you so much for the info on Sandra Cisneros!! much appreciated! When Jon started our article he wrote the first sentence...I guess none of us thought to verify the info! lol! Thanks again! --Katie322 (talk) 06:15, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hehe. Like I am a reliable source?! --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 08:37, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sandra Cisneros update

[edit]

Thank you all for your hard work in addressing my pre-GA checklist! I think the issues I raised have now been dealt with, for the most part, and any remaining points can hopefully be sorted out during copyediting... speaking of which, I've made a start, and I'm leaving questions, comments etc on the article talk page for your expert attention. I hope you're not put off by yet more things to deal with - it's the way Wikipedia editing tends to work, with articles growing by increments as they're constantly revised and improved.

Your contributions so far have been really excellent. I'm enjoying working with you, and looking forward to seeing how far we can take this article. I've noticed that jbmurray has put in the nomination for Good Article assessment, so we're approaching the first big hurdle... but I'm confident we'll clear it successfully ;) Best regards, and I'll look forward to handing out some shiny stuff in due course!

Guys, EyeSerene is afraid that you've disappeared after his patient review of your article. Do engage with his comments and continue the improvement so that you can pass the Good Article Review. --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 19:19, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

reference problem

[edit]

Hiya. Please see here. --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 13:21, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

heads up

[edit]

See here. While an article is up for scrutiny in this way, you need to be on the case. You did some good work three days ago, but otherwise it's been a bit of a lean period for you over the last ten days... Some extra effort now will save the nomination! --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 13:25, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You did it!

[edit]

Congratulations on getting Sandra Cisneros through GA! You've earned yourself one of these:


which (if you like) you can place on your user page by copy/pasting {{User Good Article|Sandra Cisneros}} into the page code.

It's been a pleasure working with you, and of course I'll be happy to help if you're planning to take the article further. Great work ;) EyeSerenetalk 14:14, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
