**Unfortunately I am not familiar with the subject matter to work on this article.

I've already tried to find sources for the article. Just one source isn't enough, even if that one source ''is'' reliable. There doesn't seem to be much that can be done for the article.

*What do you mean you can't get into the page? Does an error message come up? [[User:TenPoundHammer|<span style="color:green">Ten&nbsp;Pound&nbsp;Hammer</span>]] <small>and his otters</small> • <sup>([[Special:Contributions/TenPoundHammer|Broken clamshells]]•[[:User talk:TenPoundHammer|Otter chirps]])</sup> 04:31, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
:*Okay. Reference 1 is the community's website and has virtually nothing to do with the subject. Reference 2 is okay, I guess. Reference 3 is broken, and reference 4 barely even mentions the subject. If you cound find a newspaper article that is ''specifically'' about the theater, or anything else that gives it ''significnt'' coverage (i.e., multiple paragraphs ''about the theater proper''), that might help.

::*Those are about shows ''at'' the theater, and as such do not constitute significant coverage. At least you're trying, which is good. Unfortunately, there just doesn't seem to be enough info here.

My guess is that through you good referencing you have saved the article from deletion.  Well done!  I know it's not quite over yet but you have considerable support.  Do watch for [[WP:COI]] in future edits.  With best wishes, [[User:Gillyweed|Gillyweed]] ([[User talk:Gillyweed|talk]]) 22:53, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

==Editing Tip==
Hi Carole Higgins, I'm DigitalC, one of millions of editors on Wikipedia. On behalf of the Wikipedia community, welcome to wikipedia! One tip to help improve your editing is to fill in the edit summary box when making an edit. This will let other editors know what you did when looking at the article history, without looking at the specific changes. You may also wish to visit [[WP:PILLARS|The five pillars of Wikipedia]]. If you are interested in a specific topic here on Wikipedia (such as Theatre, or Canada), you can join a [[WP:PJ|Wikiproject]]. There are Wikiprojects for almost any topic on the Wiki. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on [[User talk:DigitalC|my talk page]], or type <nowiki>{{helpme}}</nowiki> here on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! [[User:DigitalC|DigitalC]] ([[User talk:DigitalC|talk]]) 05:03, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
*Congrats Carole Higgins on joining the Theatre Wikiproject. Hopefully it will be something you enjoy! [[User:DigitalC|DigitalC]] ([[User talk:DigitalC|talk]]) 01:35, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

==Welcome==
Hi Carole, welcome to Wikipedia. We briefly met while I was visiting Dani at the Carousel office. Thank you for writing the [[Carousel Theatre]] article, I have had that one on my to-do list for quite awhile. I'm sorry to see that you met Wikipedia with such resistance when writing your first major article. Advertising and notable content has been an all out war between the deletionists and the more liberal editors. I noticed you've been adding the {{tl|WikiProject Theatre}} template to the talk pages on quite a few articles. Generally those are placed at the top of the page along side the other WikiProject templates and maintenance templates. I've gone through your edits and changed them. Also, it's best to not leave a space between those templates (it creates a weird spacing issue). Good luck on the rest of your work.

:Hi Carole. Yes it's ridiculously complicated and Wikipedia has done an outstanding job at protecting themselves from being sued for copyright infringement and legal liability over ownership disputes. As the Artistic Director of [[Carousel Theatre]] you will have the ability to authorize various photos for use on Wikipedia. The Carousel logo can be uploaded under [[Fair use]] no problem. However, anything else you will most likely need to release under the Creative Commons [[GNU Free Documentation License]] which simply means anyone can take it and freely do what they like with it. If you upload production stills from a show it's not likely anyone will show an interest but it is something to consider. I'll be able to give you a hand once HIVE 2 is up and done with, but in the mean time if all this WikiPolicy is still confuse you could email me the photos you wish to have posted on Wikipedia and I will do the rest. Have you been to HIVE yet? [[User:Mkdw|<span style="font-size: 13px arial; color: #3366FF;">Mkdw</span>]][[User talk:Mkdw|<sup>''talk''</sup>]] 09:24, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
