User talk:2012 al
Notes on my edit to the Voyage in the Dark page: This is based on material which students in my 2012 Global Modernisms class at the University of Strathclyde came up with when we studied Voyage in the Dark. I asked them to co-create a wiki entry which would add more depth and complexity to what was on this Wikipedia page (which at the time of writing was some basic publication history and an overview of the plot). I edited the students’ writing so as to pick out the most compelling analytical points and to ensure that as a whole the section flowed, but the ideas are theirs.2012 al (talk) 18:58, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
