models

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

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.

happy face!

You get my happy face for your efforts on María Ruiz de Burton. Well done!

Hey guys

[I'm moving this over from the article talk page, mostly because it has a private email address; I suggest you delete this message once you've read it.]

Sorry I wasn't sure how best to get in contact with you. I have strep throat. I've been in bed since Friday, but I just finally got the antibiotics so I'm hoping that I might be functioning again by Wednesday. Massive headaches and general bodily deterioration have kept me from doing homework of any kind, but feel free to email me at: bellagiovannini@yahoo.ca for communication purposes. Sorry again, hope you both are well.

File source problem with File:Burton.gif

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Burton.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 06:54, 2 September 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 06:54, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
