Wikipedia is my main source of information and it ought to be kept purely informative and professional. So who wants to volunteer to go in there and clean up the book description?

You're kidding...right...ccos...:eek: Nightworld Wikipedia - ccosborne3 - 04-02-2007 Bluesman Mike Lindner Wrote:You're kidding...right...ccos...:eek: Nope, It's gotta be done Bluesman. I'd do it myself but my writing would make Spaz's look like a magnum opus. Nightworld Wikipedia - ccosborne3 - 04-02-2007 I'm talking about some gentle editing. Everybody needs an editor. FPW himself had 2 or 3 spelling errors in the ARC of Bloodline. Happens to the best of em'.

That's all well and good, but someone like this kid should find a space to post reviews (like this website) where you're not expected to be an expert and where people won't go to get some valid information. I go to Wikipedia for some solid data on any given subject. I know Wikipedia is written by contributors, and there is a disclaimer at the top of the NIGHTWORLD entry. But that review does not entice a reader to delve into either NIGHTWORLD or the Adversary Cycle. So, while it's great for kids to learn to write decent English and provide cogent analyses of whatever they've read, don't post it on Widipedia as if it's from an expert. Keep it in the classroom or on a viable website made for the purpose of sharing opinions. Nightworld Wikipedia - ccosborne3 - 04-02-2007 Ah, you haven't read my John Kerry like flip-flop yet. Nightworld Wikipedia - Maggers - 04-02-2007 ccosborne3 Wrote:Ah, you haven't read my John Kerry like flip-flop yet. You crack me up. I hadn't read your Kerry-like flip before I posted. Yeah, his NIGHTWORLD entry does need cleaning up...lots of cleaning up.

I just thrust my throbbing hubris into the mix and gave it a hack-job of an edit. Anybody wants me I'll be hanging with the Spaz.
