Again, welcome! <!-- Template:Welcome --> [[User:Victuallers|Victuallers]] ([[User talk:Victuallers|talk]]) 10:54, 14 December 2009 (UTC) == European walking route E4 == I had to undo your edit to [[European walking route E4]]. You should study the links above to familiarise yourself with editing on Wikipedia first. In particular I noticed the following: * No capitals all words, not even in headers. * Headers consist of two = signs, like this <nowiki>== Header ==</nowiki> ,not one. * Do not forget to add a references section together with adding the first references to an article, like this <pre> == References == {{Reflist}} </pre> [[User:Debresser|Debresser]] ([[User talk:Debresser|talk]]) 02:09, 23 December 2009 (UTC) == Welsh literature == {| style="border: 5px solid #584010; padding: .25em; background-color: #e0e0a0; color:#800020" |rowspan="2" valign="middle" | [[File:Wikiproject Wales Barnstar.png|75px]] |rowspan="2" | |style="font-size: x-large; padding: 0; vertical-align: middle; height: 1.1em;" | '''The Wales Barnstar''' |- |style="vertical-align: middle; border-top: 1px solid gray;" | An overdue thank you for your great expansion on Welsh literature in English.

Users are expected to [[Wikipedia:TALKDONTREVERT|collaborate]] with others, to avoid editing [[Wikipedia:Disruptive editing|disruptively]], and to [[WP:CONSENSUS|try to reach a consensus]] rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.<br> Please be particularly aware, [[Wikipedia:Edit warring|Wikipedia's policy on edit warring]] states: # '''Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made'''; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts. # '''Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.''' If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page]] to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. You can post a request for help at an [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|appropriate noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]]. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary [[Wikipedia:Protection policy|page protection]]. If you engage in an edit war, you '''may be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] from editing.'''<!-- Template:uw-ew --> [[User:Calabe1992|Calabe1992]] ([[User talk:Calabe1992|talk]]) 13:12, 19 October 2011 (UTC) ==Edit War== Before engaging in a prolonged edit war at [[Modernism]] perhaps read [[WP:IDON'TLIKEIT]] - use the talk page first to discuss the changes that you propose. At the moment consensus is against your changes...[[User:Modernist|Modernist]] ([[User talk:Modernist|talk]]) 14:31, 19 October 2011 (UTC) == Expressionism question == Solid work on the expressionism article, that's been in need of it for awhile. Nicely done. I had one question about the new sentence: "''What, however, can be said, is "that it was a movement that developed in the early twentieth-century mainly in Germany in reaction to the dehumanizing '''affect''' of industrialization and the growth of cities, and that one of the central means by which expressionism identifies itself as an avante-garde movement, and by which it marks its distance to traditions and the cultural institution as a whole is through its relationship to realism and the dominant conventions of representation."''" Are you sure that it's "affect" and not "effect" in the original? I can understand how "affect" would make sense, but "effect" would be equally likely in the context, and I just wanted to make sure that wasn't a typo.

[[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#LINK|Wikipedia is not a collection of links]], nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See [[Wikipedia:External links|the external links guideline]] and [[Wikipedia:Spam|spam guideline]] for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the [[nofollow]] attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you.[[Category:User talk pages with Uw-spam2 notices|{{PAGENAME}}]]<!-- Template:uw-spam2 --> [[User:Charlesdrakew|Charles]] ([[User talk:Charlesdrakew|talk]]) 08:32, 31 July 2012 (UTC) == A page you started has been reviewed! == Thanks for creating [[British regional literature]], Rwood128! Wikipedia editor [[User:Kieranian2001|Kieranian2001]] just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you: <blockquote>reviewed seems fine</blockquote> To reply, leave a comment on Kieranian2001's [[User talk:Kieranian2001|talk page]]. <small>Learn more about [[Wikipedia:New Pages Feed/Help|page curation]].</small> == Literature in Wales == I had to remove the images from the article as they are non-free rationale images. Images that are not pre-1928 or uploaded from a Wikipedian's own camera can not be used, sorry. [[User:FruitMonkey|FruitMonkey]] ([[User talk:FruitMonkey|talk]]) 20:54, 5 October 2012 (UTC) ==Postmodern writers== I would just delete the writers who are not postmodern, it can always be reverted. The list is a mess. Writers were added by editors who thought 'postmodern' means 'writing after 1910'. To make any meaningful sense every entry needs a [[WP:RS|solid reference]]. Adding question marks is not meaningful in the WP repertoire and will just add to later confusion. Go for it. 12:55, 19 October 2012 (UTC) :Thanks for the comment. I'll remove the question marks, which reflect my lack of certainty and knowledge about postmodernism. I'll delete the names suggested in the list previously posted. There may also be some fairly minor postmodernists listed, but I'm only speculating. [[User:Rwood128|Rwood128]] ([[User talk:Rwood128#top|talk]]) 13:04, 19 October 2012 (UTC) ::Good stuff. Also, you don't need to delete one at a time - you can take out as many as you want, or many other changes, in one edit with a clear edit summary. It comes under the heading of [[WP:BOLD|being bold]]. You are entirely in the right. I confess I had given up on the list as it was such a mess and needs citations. I would have voted for its deletion. I am glad you are cleaning it up. <font style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:15px;">[[User:Spanglej|Span]] ([[User talk:Spanglej|talk]])</font> 14:27, 20 October 2012 (UTC) :::The list was probably split off from the main article. You would probably find opposers to reducing the list to a redirect. I think the list would serve a function if accurate and cited. WP likes lists as long as they make an effort. Some great lists are featured [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_list_candidates here]. The main post modern article is also a mess (in my book) and almost entirely without refs. These articles covering big subject areas are often thankless and hard to knock into shape. I think you're doing well. Don't be disheartened - it's all ongoing work.

I wanted to invite you to the new [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Poetry/William Blake|William Blake Task Force]]. This new task force will help organizes and coordinates Wikipedia's coverage of Romantic poet and artist [[William Blake]]. In Fall 2013, I, User:Sadads, will be having a [[WP:GLAM]] internship with [[The William Blake Archive]], and has started the project to organize and support efforts to improve content related to William Blake, the collection of The William Blake Archive and other topics related to Blake's contributions to both literary and visual culture. Some of your previous contributions indicate an interest in Blake, so I wanted to invite you to the project! Hope you join us and happy editing!

If you're developing new ideas and aren't certain how to proceed, it's a lot better to try them out in your own userspace (put something like <nowiki>[[/testing]]</nowiki>) on your user page, then follow the redlink to create a safe testing area for yourself) than to tweak a live article many times ...
