I have annotated all the major Shakespeare plays in a unique way in that the definitions of difficult words and the explanations of difficult passages appear within the text, in boldfaced type inside brackets. Thus, for the most part, the reader does not need to interrupt his or her perusal of a text by navigating to a footnote, then back to the text.
Each text appears on one page. However, to assure fast loading of a page—and to make it appealing to a user—I have omitted ads and images. 
My site has received favorable reviews from The New York Times, the BBC, the British Library, and teacher sites. Wikipedia, on the other hand, has deleted links that I have posted even though Wikipedia editors accept links to Shakespeare sites that contain ads and cannot match the scholarship on my pages. If you doubt what I say, check out the following links to Shakespeare plays.

May I have permission to post links to my Shakepeare texts without worry that someone will delete them? 

Wikipedia is an extraordinary resource for students, teachers, and researchers. I believe my Shakespeare texts can enhance the experience of Wikipedia users researching Shakespeare.

Sincerely,
Michael J. Cummings

[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Thanks for contributing to the article [[:Shigureden]]. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be [[WP:V|verifiable]], by being clearly attributed to [[WP:RS|reliable sources]], preferably using [[WP:IC|inline citations]]. Please help by adding more sources to the article you edited, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the claims (see [[Help:Referencing for beginners|here]] for how to do inline referencing). Thanks! P.S. If you need any help, you can look at [[Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia]] or ask at [[Wikipedia:New contributors' help page]], or just ask me.

:{{ping|Jax 0677}}, you know Mushroom is an admin, right? I think it's safe to assume that they don't need a template, but a note is always appreciated. [[User:Drmies|Drmies]] ([[User talk:Drmies|talk]]) 15:11, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

== Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity ==


[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]]
Established [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Procedural removal for inactive administrators|policy]] provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have not made any edits or logged actions in the preceding twelve months. Because you have been inactive, your administrative permissions will be removed&#32;if you do not return to activity within the next month.

Inactive administrators are encouraged to rejoin the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions.  Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators]].  If you do not intend to rejoin the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at [[WP:BN|the bureaucrats' noticeboard]].

Thank you for your past contributions to the project. <!-- Template:Inactive admin -->—&thinsp;[[User:JJMC89 bot|JJMC89 '''bot''']] 00:02, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
