Never be afraid to get in there and make the edits! --Steve (Stephen) talk 05:49, 19 April 2007 (UTC) Let me second Steve's remark above. As a librarian - are you up for writing Robbery Under Arms, which is currently redlinked in the Bushrangers article?Garrie 03:12, 20 April 2007 (UTC) The Magic Pudding is another Australian novel that is available free online at Project Gutenburg. So its' article may be worth a look. It is missing a fair-use image of the cover art - although, when first relaeased it would not have had any such thing. One thing to not for Robbery is that it was first released as a serial, I don't know if it was changed much when released as a novel - in the first novel release it was in three volumes is the extent of my knowledge.Garrie 10:19, 21 April 2007 (UTC) You might want to look through Category:Australian novels.Garrie 10:20, 21 April 2007 (UTC) Sam Boardman-Jacobs This page is not in any categories. It is always a good idea to use categories to link new articles to other similar articles, and to prevent the article from being tagged as an orpan. I guess he should be in Category:English drama and Category:English-language writers? but I'm not too sure. It may also still be a stub - but it is definately getting well toward start-class. If you have access to reviews for his writing, then everything you are saying about the meaning and plot of his work should be cited. And if you have references for his scriptwriting with the BBC, cite that as well. It is in quite a good state for a first effort at an article, well done! Garrie 03:20, 20 April 2007 (UTC) PS. Categories are just "tacked on" at the bottom of the page, don't put them in a seperate section (just edit the "References" section and put them in there at the end). Make sure you use the pipe feature so he shows up in lists sorted by his surname, like this: [[Category:English drama|Boardman-Jacobs, Sam]].Garrie 03:22, 20 April 2007 (UTC) Sam Boardman-Jacobs. All you really need is a small sentence "X is openly gay" and add a citation for it. I can't find anything in immediate reach, but as someone who I'm sure must know quite a bit about him, I'm sure you can. You might want develop some sentences about his work in gay and lesbian theatre, but as it stands it's quite good. Needs citations though! Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 14:05, 23 April 2007 (UTC) Adoption I'm willing to adopt you. I lived in Kyneton around the turn of the century. The article Indigenous Australians has all the content it needs, possible more then necessary. It's really at the end stage now just needing a little nudge to get to Featured article standards. What the article needs is copy editing(spelling, grammer, wikifying and layout), adding/cleaning up of citations for various sections/statement, linking to associated articles and sense checking of stats against sources. Gnangarra 13:36, 30 April 2007 (UTC) User:Baby ifritah/Robbery Under Arms Doesnt really matter it's still in user space. Normally when sections disappears its because you left a reference open you had <ref/> instead of </ref>. I also added reference tag to the reference section you see that all the sources now appear but they need to be formatted so that they can be read see WP:CITE for details on layout. Also trivia sections are disliked, generally if the information is important enough to be included in the article then do using prose in a specific section. Another point is that the lead should be a summary of the article, such that any fact in the lead is expanded upon in the main text of the article. Books movies etc normally include a section on critics both at time of publishing and at various releases, even more so when its historically acclaimed like this is. Anyhow the layout looks fine I'm off for the night but drop me a note if have any questions and I'll answer when I'm back on. Gnangarra 14:29, 30 April 2007 (UTC) something I just noticed is Robbery Under Arms already exists even though its a stub, I recommend you merge your asandbox page into this article. you can always expand on once its there but this'll save other editors doing unnecessary work. Gnangarra 02:54, 1 May 2007 (UTC) Robbery Under Arms I have added a single reference to a copy I have seen as a basis for a full reference section. I have also rationised the footnotes as you suggested. It is possible for some paper based repeated footnoting to perhaps make use of a "reference" entry to the work with footnotes making use of this with specific page numbers. Thanks :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:58, 3 May 2007 (UTC) An Invite to join Novels WikiProject Hi, you are cordially invited to join the Novels WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to fiction books often referred to as "Novels". We make no length distinction so all narrative prose fiction is of interest. This includes Novels, novellas, novelettes and short stories. Articles about the works themselves and the forms and genres. As you have shown an interest in Robbery Under Arms we thought you might like to take an interest in this well established WikiProject. We look forward to welcoming you to the project! :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 10:00, 3 May 2007 (UTC) Welcome to Novels WikiProject Hi, and welcome to the Novels WikiProject!

Amongst some eds - they are either historically or geographically challenged to the point of embarrsment. I suppose my suggestion is to start with the new project- and when it gets too big break out into other things- rather than the other way around. So we need the start - there are hundreds of oz poets and novelists who simply are stubs or not even there - either by state, or by era - my teenagers are computer obsessed - and i thats any indication theres a whole generation of australians who are doomed to have their cultural history lost if things like this wikipedia project dosnt inject a sense of curiosity in users of wikipedia - which is why I say more power to the oz lit project and lets get on with it! and scuse late night ramblings - cheers SatuSuro 13:52, 5 May 2007 (UTC) Wikiproject Aust Lit HI Baby ifritah, as your adopter recommend that you dont go it alone in establishing the project the work involved in establishing then maintaining is very time consuming. I suggest that you listen to the advice of User:SatuSuro who just started WP:NTA and also seek out advice from User:cj. I'll help if you do decide to go ahead with the project, but Australian literature isnt an area where I have detailed knowledge. Gnangarra 01:25, 6 May 2007 (UTC) Hey v busy today - will post long rumbuctious objectionable charles bukowski type rave about the whole thing this pm or tomoorow - if cj finds himself mentioned and numps in - fine - otherwise I'll out waits tom - and think of a few sollipsistic crunches of terms to get the whole damned thing running on chicken feet before you can work out the hell I am up to - heheh - tonight and may the babe sleep well SatuSuro 04:04, 6 May 2007 (UTC) Be good if you canemail as thereare someoff wikicomments aboutall ofthis stuffcheersSatuSuro 04:09, 6 May 2007 (UTC) The Novels WikiProject Newsletter: Issue XII - May 2007 The May 2007 issue of the Novels WikiProject newsletter has been published.

SatuSuro 06:19, 7 May 2007 (UTC) Probably /possibly worth doing a redirect from your sub-page to the one out there. Also if grutness gives ok for aus-lit-stub - thats bloody great! (Theres a story about his signature - sometime off wiki) cheers SatuSuro 01:19, 8 May 2007 (UTC) Plot problems And the easy question is!? I certainly agree with your caution. However these issues of "only Plot" and "too much plot", and "in-universe" and "tone" are a general blight here and the volume of the problem is immense. I would use {{tone}}, {{plot}} and occasionally {{advert}} if that is too blatant. Then I would try and get your "Australian literature" group up and running and see if you can gather a few editors to focus on the national prose article collection. Why I say this is the original editors seem often unwilling, unable or just plain "gone" and will never return to their work. It seems more productive to gather others to improve the articles. We can establish a Novels task force to support this initiative and hopefully we can focus some effort. If I knew some of the works I would feel more able to contribute more myself. Trust that helps - at least a bit :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 12:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC) Given the way you are adding {{plot}} I'm not sure it is the most appropriate. The template says quite a bit about "plot" length and you are adding it the article that sometimes bearly have more than a couple fo sentences. So I'm not sure this is best. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 13:45, 8 May 2007 (UTC) I understand your dilemma, I'll have a hunt round and see if I can find something more appropriate. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 14:05, 8 May 2007 (UTC) No joy - but I added something to your {{plot}} talk :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 14:17, 8 May 2007 (UTC) Lol Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_talk:Australian_novels - and the image - I thoink we need to call in a good template image rather than a basket ball :) SatuSuro 14:24, 9 May 2007 (UTC) Maroon or green either are ok i reckon btw you sure a good designer!SatuSuro 03:47, 10 May 2007 (UTC) Ummm the red is a bit um - in the face - any chance of toning down slightly? SatuSuro 11:14, 10 May 2007 (UTC) I like the last one - but thats me :) SatuSuro 12:22, 10 May 2007 (UTC) I sort of gone cold on waiting for the crowds I reckon we need to replace the basketball - and start tagging (gently) SatuSuro 12:28, 10 May 2007 (UTC) Nah no sub cats yet - we need to fill the project page with thing like names of poets/novelists - sort of the big names of the last 150 years stuff - and check to see whether theyre even in the ballpark -SatuSuro 13:10, 10 May 2007 (UTC) That bloody basketball needs to be exterminated actually - thats one thing SatuSuro 13:15, 10 May 2007 (UTC) One thing we have to learn is to be patient - I might or might not get anything done due to off wiki things - hey sometime soon :) SatuSuro 13:26, 10 May 2007 (UTC) Australian Literature Project - Science Fiction & Fantasy Thx for your message Baby ifiritah !

Many libraries and repositories mislead the public by leaving contradictory notices on their websites. Whether it's deliberate or laziness in fixing the website I'm not sure, but either way, its safe to just ignore. —Moondyne 15:43, 11 May 2007 (UTC) But actually, the copyright link you posted does say "Photographs taken before 1 January 1955 are out of copyright and are not affected by these new rules.". —Moondyne 15:45, 11 May 2007 (UTC) Australian literature is new ACOTF Hi.

Novel related news The Novel - (author notes by kind permission of Gregory David Roberts) What is a novel? What are the elements that must be found in any piece of writing for it to be considered a novel? I think it fair to say that traditional definitions of the word “novel” work along these lines: A novel is a fictitious prose story of book length. In my view, a novel has six basic elements: 1) It must have a society of characters; 2) They must be undergoing transformations; 3) And those must be in the course of a sustained prose narrative; 4) The sustained prose narrative must be impelled by a plot; 5) And it must be unified by clearly discernible central themes; 6) And to the extent possible, it must be universalised by a complex architecture of allegorical and symbolical sub-strata. If I write those six basic elements into a single definition, I come up with this: A novel is a society of characters, undergoing transformations, in the course of a sustained prose narrative, which is impelled by a plot, unified by clearly discernible central themes, and universalised by a complex architecture of allegorical and symbolical sub-strata. item courtesy of Boylo (talk · contribs) Current debates After lengthy discussions about the {{Infobox_Book}} it has settled down at a possibly permanent layout.

I enjoyed the novel over the Christmas break, and it was useful to know what should have been in the article so I knew what to look for when reading it. I've added (possibly too much) plot outline and (possibly too little) themes to the article. I doubt I would have bothered without your quality start to the page.WotherspoonSmith (talk) 13:43, 8 February 2008 (UTC) The Novels WikiProject Newsletter - Issue XXI - February 2008 Archives  |  Tip Line  |  Editors The Novels WikiProject Newsletter Issue XXI - February 2008 Project news We have had a solid month with an increase of project tagging work.

While researching her, I noticed that you did already some considerable work. It's too late in the day now (midnight), but I will place the material I have so far onto my userpage tomorrow or Tuesday, so you can have a look at it.

He knows that in the future some demoni people will serve Lord Advaita. Text 123 They will refer to Lord Advaita by the name "Shri Krishna". In this way they will reject the words of the true Vaishnavas. Text 124 These sinners will thus disobey the devotees who affirm that Advaita is "the greatest Vaishnava". Text 125 Many persons will consider themselves the followers of Lord Advaita, but they will not have the power to see how in the future they will be punished. Text 126 Lord Chaitanya, the crest jewel of they who know everything, knew all this. Therefore He did something to try to stop this from happening. Text 127 By punishing His mother, Lord Chaitanya showed the result that comes from offending Lord Advaita or any other Vaishnava. Text 128 No one can protect a person who has offended a Vaishnava. Text 129 Therefore one should avoid persons who offend Vaishnava. Text 130 One should avoid an offender, even if the offender is otherwise very qualified. A little association with an offender will make one fall down. Text 131 Who has the power to understand why the Lord gives punishment? By punishing His mother, He taught everyone. Text 132 Anyone who blasphemes they who use the word `Vaishnava" to address Lord Advaita will be punished. He will perish. Text 133 Lord Chaitanya is theSupreme Personality of Godhead, the master of all. To be called His follower is very great praise. Text 134 Without any intention to deceive, Lord Chaitanya openly said that Lord Nityananda is the Supreme Personality of Godhead Himself. Text 135 By Lord Nityananda's mercy I know Lord Chaitanya. By Lord Nityananda's mercy I know the Vaishnavas. Text 136 By Lord Nityananda's mercy offenses are destroyed. By Lord Nityananda's mercy one attains devotion to Lord Vishnu. Text 137 Blasphemy directed to Lord Nityananda's servants never enters my mouth. Day and night I happily sing Lord Chaitanya's glories Text 138 I carefully serve Lord Nityananda's devotees. Lord Chaitanya is the life and wealth of Lord Nityananda's servants. Text 139 A person who has only a little good fortune will not become Lord Nityananda's servant, for Lord Nityananda's servant is able to see Lord Chaitanya. Text 140 Anyone who hears this story of Lord Visvarupa becomes a servant of the limitless Supreme Personality of Godhead. He feels that Lord Nityananda is his very life. Text 141 Lord Nityananda and Lord Visvarupa do not have different bodies. This Mother Saci knew. Some other great souls also knew. Text 142 Glory to Lord Nityananda, who takes shelter of Lord Chaitanya! Glory, glory to Lord Nityananda, who is thousand-faced Ananta Sesha! Text 143 O Lord Nityananda, O king of Gauda-desa, glory to You! Who can attain Lord Chaitanya without first attaining Your mercy? Text 144 Anyone who loses Lord Nityananda will not be happy in this life. Text 145 Will I some day see Lord Chaitanya, Lord Nityananda, and their associates all thogether in one place? Text 146 Lord Chaitanya is my master. With great faith and hope I meditate on Him within my heart. Text 147 I bow down before Lord Advaita's feet. I pray that he will always be dear to me and that He will always stay in my thoughts. Text 148 The two moons Shri Krishna Chaitanya and Shri Nityananda are my life and soul. I, Vrindavana dasa, sing the glories of Their feet. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.132.82.156 (talk) 14:09, 2 July 2010 (UTC) Melbourne meetup this Saturday Melbourne Meetup Next: Wikipedia:Meetup/Melbourne/46 - Tuesday 13 August, 2024 (watch) Last: 18 February 2023 See also: Australian events listed at Wikimedia.org.au (or on Facebook) Hi there!
