Axlotl

edit

Hi, I don't want to start an edit war here, but you need a source if you're going to insist that Frank Herbert intended the word spelled "axolotl." It appears twice that way in Dune Messiah, and then 47 times as "axlotl" in the next three books (7 in God Emperor of Dune, 23 in Heretics of Dune, 17 in Chapterhouse Dune). I think he would've fixed it after it was misspelled in one novel. — TAnthonyTalk 01:40, 13 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I don't want to start an editing war either, but all my novels have the spelling of axolotl throughout. I can't find a single mispelling of axolotl as axlotl. How do we correct this situation properly? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Iridiusprime (talkcontribs) 22:30, 15 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
What versions do you have?! Even the searchable ones on Amazon spell it "axlotl." — TAnthonyTalk 03:53, 16 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Invitation to Meetup/Seattle6, a focus group

edit

Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington (Seattle campus), and my group is reaching out to Wikipedians in the Puget Sound area. We're hosting a focus group designed to gather information on what Wikipedians would like to know about each other when interacting on Wikipedia. Our end goal is to create an embedded application that helps people quickly know more about others' history and activity on Wikipedia, and we feel our design will be much more useful if it's based on insights of users like you.

I'm hoping that the chance to help out local researchers, to engage in lively face-to-face discussion with other Seattle Wikipedians, and to contribute to Wikipedia in a new way will entice you to join us. The session lasts 2 hours and snacks are provided. Sessions will be held on UW Seattle campus - directions will be sent after registration. Your contribution will be greatly appreciated!

Willing and able to help us out? RSVP here. Want to know more? Visit our user talk page . Please help us contact other local Wikipedians, too! Commprac01 (talk) 03:11, 16 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
