Traverse Theatre Company (Edinburgh)[edit]

Don't worry about it, you didn't ruin anything! I tend to clean up a lot of articles like that anyway. It's hard to learn how Wikipedia articles are set up with all their syntax. Next time, try and find a similar article and copy the way that is written and organised. Take care! Sillyfolkboy (talk) 22:54, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh wait! I see what's gone on here. Don't worry, I'm fixing it back to how it was before. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 22:58, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

no. you have failed again. look here, there is a style of theatre called traverse, and a company named after that style of theatre, you have merely pasted the copy of that company page. not the page on the style of theatre.

I believe you're mixing up your terms: The "Traverse Theatre" (especially capitalised) refers specifically to the theatre in Edinburgh. What you are taking about is traverse staging. If you want to make that article then please do here on Traverse stage. Here are some basic sources to use as references for that article:

article discussing specifications
article discussing stage setup (registration/university connection required)
Guardian article

The latter source actually discusses the difficulties with finding material on the origin of traverse staging. Perhaps offline sources may help. Good luck! Sillyfolkboy (talk) 15:06, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(P.S. I really don't think that I've failed again. I'm not going to write the article because I know nothing about theatre staging. Perhaps you would like to have a go at writing Olusoji Fasuba? Didn't think so... It's only logical that writers will not write about things they do not know anything about!) Sillyfolkboy (talk) 15:14, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I recommend you read Wikipedia:Notability. Deb (talk) 19:10, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
