[edit] The butterfly that stamped
Duplicative stub of the more comprehensive Just So Stories entry. An easy delete.
I did some cleanup, chopped stuff on other books in the same series to limit the material, and added a cat.
But we need a summary of the story, I guess, anyone remember this one? It's by Kipling. RJFJR 04:37, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

I added a link to wikisource. If someone wants to read it and add a summary they don't have to go find a printed copy. RJFJR 19:43, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

It's still short but it is about a short story so hrd to do more unless you are an expert on Kipling. Taskforce project closed. RJFJR 16:32, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] We All Fall Down
The article about Robert Cormier's novel We All Fall Down looks like it was written by a talented high school student -- and I mean that non-sarcastically, as it's got some value to it, but it needs a rewriting. It's self-contradictory at points (for example, it says in one place that the novel was written in 1975, but in another location says that it doesn't say when it takes place, so could be set anytime in "the 80s or 90s", etc.). I've got a bit too much on my plate to rewrite the article, but I think the information the original article author provided needs to be reconstituted into a rewritten article, I think. I'd normally give it a try, but life's just a little too crazy for me to be doing massive rewrites. Not that you guys have it any easier, I"m sure. — WCityMike (T | C) 23:04, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
I did some cleanup on it. I removed the self contradictory line as redundant. Is stepped down a flight of stairs a British term for knock/throw down a flight of stairs? RJFJR 17:26, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
Never heard it used before in UK.--Christopherneale 09:59, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
The edits by 82.171.5.144 around April need to be reversed. -- Anon 23:27, 1 May 2006 (CET)
