Class Plan for Stub Article
editFor our general introduction section, we will introduce the name of the poem and its author. In addition, we will briefly outline the content of the rest of the page, including an overview of the content of the poem and the main points in our history section. Additionally, the general introduction section will include modern uses of the poem, "All in the golden afternoon.” Some of these uses include the the title for a disney song, lyrics for other songs, or dialogue in adaptations of Alice in Wonderland.
The next section of our page will include the full text of the poem, which we already obtained through a copy of the original printed source.[1] We are going with the full text because there is no longer a copyright on the works. Furthermore, preliminary research has shown that this poem is not widely known so the full text will help to remedy that. Lastly, this poem changes rapidly from stanza to stanza but all of the stanzas are needed to understand said poem.
In the history section, we will give context to the poem: a brief description of the author and the time that it was written in. Then we will go into more detail about the circumstances surrounding the poem: the person who inspired it, possible reasons for its addition to “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,” as well as why the poem itself was written in the first place. This will include accounts from both Alice Liddell herself as well as another acquaintance of Lewis Carroll.[2] Lastly, our references section will be at the very end, featuring a list of not only Carroll's actual text but also outside sources.
References
editA bunch of our references keep getting added more than once. Is this okay, since we are getting more than one piece of info from each source, or is there a way to add the same reference number to multiple pieces of information?Sarah darling01 (talk) 23:08, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

editWow guys, what you guys have so amazing is wonderful! You have so much information; it is all organized and put together well. I don't really know what else to say, because looks as if it is already good enough to turn in. GordonCass (talk) 22:09, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

editThis looks great! There is tons of really interesting information here. The only comment I have is that the sentence right after introductory paragraph seems isolated. I would recommend adding it into the paragraph above with a transition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.193.154.2 (talk) 02:03, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

editVery impressive! I can only suggest maybe a photo of Carroll and the book it came from! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tashiray (talk • contribs) 05:49, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

editI had no idea until reading this that the poem is about the creation of another story, let alone 'Alice in Wonderland'. I rather enjoyed the history of this poem, it is fantastic on its own and I wouldn't mind reading more about the history. The use of this poem as the introduction of Alice's story is very interesting, and I noticed you put it in the intro. of the page, but that also I wouldn't mind reading more about. I found it interesting that this poem gets rearranged and changed about so much, but it still seems to find a way to stay attached to 'Alice' in the various forms in which her story is told--be it movies, plays, etc. Really interesting and fascinating Wiki. Kudos!JjoeE360 (talk) 19:12, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

editYou guys did a great job on this! The information covers a lot of different aspects about the poem and your information is very thorough too. Just a small suggestion is that, within the first paragraph, you guys mentioned who the three Liddell sisters are in relation to Alice in Wonderland. I would imagine that anyone looking up this piece of literature would know who Alice is, but may not be familiar with the three Liddell Sisters (I am definitely not). That would be my only word of advice. Keep up the good work guys! AmeliaCarr (talk) 20:21, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

editGreat job on the article guys! you were able to fully flesh out the story and add a plentiful amount of references. I remember singing the Disney version of the poem from the movie "Alice in Wonderland", but it was really interesting to see the history behind it, and that Lewis Carroll gained the idea of Alice from real interactions. Good breakdown of the poem too, especially after putting all seven stanzas up there. The only thing i could think of to improve would be to add in some references to some other easy pages through the words, especially the literary devices used in the poem and when you talk about them. But great overall! 128.193.152.178 (talk) 06:38, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
