[edit] Horn
See fof talk. We can even create a Horn page if there is enough info for it. Then the fof article can say "RB was in the Horn theater for this long" - and the theater can link to the other article where all of this info is included. Aeuio 02:02, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Since you are so dedicated to this, you might be interested in WP:COI. Also, the fof members will probably attack your sources of your info by using blogs and personal sites to back them up (they'll never quit talking about wiki rules when they want to discredit blogs and personal sites, but when they need them they don't mind using them). So the following "About Alex Horn's group, of which Burton was a member: "Students, required to sell tickets to the weekly productions (theater presentations by Horn's group), were harangued and physically beaten if ticket quotas were not met. At Horn's instigation, all-night drinking marathons culminating in fist fights were common occurences, all in the name of the teaching. Punishment, in many forms, was a feature of Horn's teaching." could be sourced to "Taking with the Left Hand: Enneagram Craze, People of the Bookmark, & the Mouravieff Phenomenon" Written by William Patrick Patterson, Edited by Barbara Allen Patterson, Arete Communications, Publishers, 1998, ISBN 1-879514-10-9 pg. 110" Patterson is harder for them to criticize than Rick Ross. Sorry I don't wish to be involved over there as I was some time ago. Good luck. Aeuio 18:54, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
- If Alex Horn page stays, then the A.H. info belong there and the fof page could link to the A.H. page. This is the best solution and please act logical, as the fof members have calmed down with the control over the fof page. Thanks Aeuio 20:36, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Indenting dialog
So, you say something new at the left margin.
- Now I'm the second person so I indent once by using a colon to comment on what you said
-
- Now an editor adds his comments on whay I said, with 2 colons, indenting twice as far
-
- Next edit is about what I said, so indention is the same as the one before (2 colons)
-
-
- A new thought on what was said in previous edit with 2 indents (2 colons)
-
- One colon commenting on original thought
Left margin for a new subject
Left margin for a new subject
Now, if someone wants to edit the second new subject, the go under it, use one colon and they are indented showing their commment refers to that subject.
Hope this makes sense.--Moon Rising 00:07, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
ps - read this in edit mode and you'll see the colons.--Moon Rising 00:10, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
