New Topics

Hi any and all who venture here, I'm looking for a new project i.e. page to work up to FA standard. All suggestions welcome :)

Fist of respect
I award this fist of respect to Hrothgar cyning for fine work in bringing King Arthur to featured status. qp10qp (talk) 13:00, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Now, get that jolly old book done. qp10qp (talk) 17:37, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lol! Thanks very much, and thank you again for all your work on it too :-) Hrothgar cyning (talk) 17:52, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Not to worry; I promoted the article a bit ago (there is a normal delay with the bot that does the final accounting, see WP:FAC/ar). Congratulations !! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:29, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations! - PKM (talk) 00:55, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Project

Would you want to tackle Dark Ages? It was a Good Article but it's been de-listed. - PKM (talk) 01:00, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats

I am glad that all of your hard work has payed off. I hope you continue to contribute substantially to featured articles. --Meldshal42 (talk to me) 02:05, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Still more congrats

Jumping on the bandwagon, just let me say congratulations for the featured article. It would not have been done without your outstanding work. It is currently one of the best overviews of Arthur offered by any encyclopedia.--Cúchullain t/c 05:14, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your kind words, Hrothgar. I'm also interested to see how the page changes from here on out, and I know Wrad, myself and others will try to make sure the changes are positive. As for Ottava's comments, I'm well past the point of listening to him about his personal nitpicks. As far as I can tell the sandwiching is, as you say, the result of screen resolution. It looks fine on my screen, so I can't tell what he's going on about. The "Further reading" section I went ahead and removed entirely, as all four books that appeared there were already used in the "references" section ("further reading" sections here are usually used to include useful sources that were not cited in the article.) Your name and your book obviously still appear in the article, but no one I've heard has even suggested that there's any conflict of interest or of POV. The article is excellent, and I'm happy to have worked with you on it. Cheers, my friend.--Cúchullain t/c 19:55, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that, I just wanted to make sure we were 100% beyond reproach :) I'm going to be less around for the next few weeks, as I finish off the last two chapters of a book and do the final edits on two articles before sending them back to their journals, but feel free to email me via the address on my webpage if anything comes up etc etc. All the best, Hrothgar cyning (talk) 21:47, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Um, Hrothgar cyning, are you who I think you are? (TG?) - PKM (talk) 21:06, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
