Homeschooling project

Hello, My name Master Scott Hall (you can call me Scott). I am relatively new contributing to Wikipedia, though I have been a user of it for some time. I am currently soliciting for interest in a Wikiproject that I have proposed on the subject of homeschooling. Before finding Wikipedia, my wife and I were seriously considering, but not quite convinced, to home educate our children.

After discovering the depth, scope, and long-term goals of Wikipedia, as well as the individuals driving it, I am convinced that WP has the potential to revolutionize homeschooling. I am also convinced that home education is the right choice for my family. I have, however, been somewhat discouraged by the oversight of home education in most of the education related projects on WP. There are many potential reasons for this discrepency, but I have resolved to try to do something about it.

Although I personally have very limited experience in building complex Wikiprojects, -templates, -portals, etc., I am confident that the right team can be assembled to tackle these issues. I would like to invite you to join this effort to make Wikipedia the resource for the home education of our children. If you are interested, please visits the temporary project page I have set up. Thank you --Master Scott Hall 23:27, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Welcome. Great to have you on board. We probably need about 8 more participants to make this project worth while, but we can start laying the groundwork. If you know of anyone that might be interested in this project, please drop me their info so that they can be contacted. In the meantime, if you have any thoughts on the project, feel free to speak up.--Master Scott Hall 14:01, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

I have responded to you inquiry at the Homeschooling project discussion page. To insure that your comments won't be overlooked, please direct future project-related discussion to this page. Thanks, Master Scott Hall 23:03, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Project Launch. The Homeschooling project has moved to its new home at Wikipedia:WikiProject Alternative education. Please visit the project page at your earliest convenience. If you have already discovered the move, please disregard this message. Thanks, Master Scott Hall 15:51, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Project Update: Our WikiProject Alternative education is going well. A large number of relevent articles have been assembled, evaluated, and sorted for the Adopt an article list. Alternative education (talk) and homeschooling (talk) have been selected as Focus articles. Please add them to your watch list so you can keep track of the latest changes, contributions, and discussions.

We want everyone wants to to stay as involved as they want, no matter how little time they have to contribute. If you've got a lot going and you simply can't find the time for regular contributions, just drop in from time to time to add your input to ongoing discussions. More input makes it easier for more active editors to make sure that their efforts are working toward concensus. If you feel that you don't have enough background in the subject at hand to make material contributions, you can still help by proof-reading and checking for readability. So, stay in touch, stay involved. Thanks, Master Scott Hall | Talk 07:34, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Video Editing Software

Hello. Just thought you might like to know that I setup a Comparison_of_video_editing_software page. Most other software genres seem to have a page like this, so it was surprising that NLEs didn't. --Baryonic Being 17:49, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

That's fantastic. I'll start adding some of my page to that when I get a chance. --TangentIdea 17:56, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

Is your Apple page for software which is published by Apple, or for software which run on the Apple? I thought I'd check before I dove in ;-) Stephen B Streater 19:02, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Misc

You say "Only an amateur blames his tools". That's because professionals have good tools.

Also, the perfect development is low cost, fast and good quality. You can have any two.
