Re: Ernest T. Cragg's biography

Re: Removal...: I've taken the tags down. The issues appear to be fixed, but you didn't need me to do it. All it takes is a reasonable effort to fix the tagged issues. • Gene93k (talk) 19:00, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Edward "Porky" Cragg edit question

Sure, the infobox contained 2 died criteria which was causing the death date and age to not show up. I hope that helps but please let me know if you need anything else--Kumioko (talk) 17:50, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Wooly Mammoth

Not bad; you weren't stringent enough, though, in removing the string of tiny snippets from articles about them. That kind of thing is discouraged because of the obvious problems in selecting only the most favorable wording. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:53, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

The address is pretty much standard in an infobox. --Orange Mike | Talk 16:51, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company

Hello! I liked the article but I hope you don't mind my cleaning it up a bit. Be careful about leaving wide gaps in the text, which was happening due to the placement of the photo of the theater interior. By shifting it to the left, I was able to eliminate the unsightly stretch of whiteness that was dividing the article.

I also removed the image of one of the productions. Wikipedia rules about the use of images are very stringent, and admittedly I don't always understand them. I do know an image of a stage production or a screenshot is appropriate in the article about the play or film, but elsewhere it's considered unnecessary window-dressing and sooner or later is deleted.

I consolidated a couple of the sections and fixed all your references.

Good luck with your articles devoted to DC theatre. I'm sure they will be a welcome addition to Wikipedia. LiteraryMaven (talkcontrib) 19:54, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Ed, I'm glad you found the changes I made helpful. As far as standards defining the importance of an article, I honestly don't know if any exist. What I tend to do is look at the overall picture and ask myself, where does this article fit among all those that fall into its category, in this case theatre? If you consider everything that falls within the so-called "jurisdiction" of the theatre project, the Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company ranks on the low side. However, I really wouldn't worry about how you've ranked anything. I have a feeling not too many people pay attention to this. The important thing is to make sure your facts are accurate and properly referenced and the article meets notability guidelines, which Woolly Mammoth certainly does. I hope you have fun with Wikipedia! LiteraryMaven (talkcontrib) 16:27, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Your relatives

The two articles on your relatives are interesting. But I suggest you format them with inline citations, which is the standard. RlevseTalk 12:07, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
