Almost there![edit]

All that remains is for you to pick a group here. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 11:14, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

models[edit]

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 (talk • contribs) 09:51, 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.

Another reminder about regular editing: So far you have only made six edits. Do get up to speed... If you are having any problems, please drop me a note. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 19:06, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

making a plan[edit]

Hi!! The other 2 people doing Jose Marti are Delara and me (Valerie). We need to have a plan by friday of what we're going to do for the article. I tried to find you in class but maybe you weren't there??? My email is valraynard@hotmail.com, Delara's is dtiv@interchange.ubc.ca. Maybe you could email us asap about doing this plan. We're going to check out more or less what to do right now. Thanks! Valerie --Valerieraynard (talk) 22:11, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

October[edit]

Bas87, I see that the last time you made an edit was well over a week ago... --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 20:32, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And a week later, still no further edits... and in fact, you've only made six over the entire semester to date. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 08:20, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bas87, still nothing nine days later... still only six edits over the entire semester. What's up? --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 23:21, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey sebastian it's Valerie from Jose marti... i don't want to rush you or anything, maybe you are getting things done and just not putting it up on wikipedia yet, but it's like a week and a half away from submitting our article for "good article" status and you have a really important part, his life! anyway good luck!

What Valerieraynard says, though I'm glad to see you've finally made a move. Keep it up! --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 00:37, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
