An idea clicked

Neat, we're definitely going to have pages for the major groups, constituencies and associations, etc., but hadn't thought of going it chronologically. That solves a problem that has been bugging me for a while, great idea, thanks and we'll use it! Ray

Notice

To all writers: Can you start marking the very top of each and every page you work on with UNDER CONSTRUCTION, when Caterina, Ray, or myself have edited and checked off on the page we will remove it. Thanks! Andrew

UPDATE: We've created an image that will make the "Under Construction" process easier: Please insert [[Image:UnderConstruction.png]] as the first text in every article you make. Thanks for putting up with the notes as we perfect this process. Be well, Stay in touch, Andrew

Again?

You should give those 3 articles you pointe out to me another go! We want them on the site because they have caricatures, and it seems like their could be some info out there on these folks. Give it a second try! Andrew

Current batch

Hey, thanks for your work on your current batch of articles! Right now, Ray, Andrew, and I are at the ICANN conference in San Francisco, and unfortunately we might not have time to do much editing this week, but we will definitely get to your articles starting next week. One thing: I've noticed that you always use the h3 heading (===) when formatting your articles. To fit with the formatting of the rest of the site, we would prefer if you used h2 headings (==) and only use h3 headings if you need a subhead under an h2 heading. Thanks! Caterina

If you could do it, that would be wonderful. Thank you! Caterina

Sam Bazzi

Yes, it intentional, not sure why, but just leave it alone for now Ray

From Lahore

Someone we met from Lahore: Fouad Riaz Bajwa. Oh, and I also talked to Sarmad Hussain who is a professor there Ray

Yes, neat to connect Ray

Naming Problem

Thanks for pointing this out. It has been fixed. ~~

Captcha!

So I heard about your problems with the site.. Is it still happening? I did some testing with 3 different browsers (Chrome, Firefox, and Safari) and I had none of the similar problems. What browser are you using? Could you send me a screenshot of what's happening to andrew@icannwiki.com? I don't know how to help you at this point but we can figure this out with a little more background. AndrewM

Still haven't received that email... maybe check the spelling of the address..?Andrew

Umm. Still no email. you could try andrewpmerriam[at]gmail.com Got both of em! that was weird...

Get some sleep! I'm with Ray and we'll try to puzzle this out. Thanks for keep us updated and talk to you tomorrow.

Editing

I'm going to start editing the batches you've posted. I've already gone through Batch #4 to determine whether or not you've exhausted the possible resources, and out of the 50 person batch there were only a few I identified that need some more content. That batch is not yet edited completely, but when you have a chance please go back and build up those articles I've identified. Keep an eye out for my other editing notes as I work through these batches. Thanks, Andrew

Notes:

• In most cases Education should come last in a person's profile. This is because it is generally the oldest experience a person has and is not usually the main thing that people would want to quickly learn about a person. I've been switching it in your articles, but please put it towards the end of the articles in the future.
• I like that you use the person's first and last name instead of always "he, he, he"; however, when you use just their last name please use a title in front of it- so instead of saying "Johnson studied at the University" go with "Mr./Dr./Prof. Johnson, etc.".
• we've started the rule that unless a person's article is REALLY long, then it does not need a table of contents. These automatically appear after you create a few separate headers. To eliminate this place __NOTOC__ as the very last thing on the page. NOTOC is surrounded by 2 underscores (_) on each side.
