Activity level

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.

http://shakespearestudyguide.com/JuliusCaesarText.html http://shakespearestudyguide.com/CoriolanusText.html http://shakespearestudyguide.com/MuchAdoAbout.html http://www.shakespearestudyguide.com/TwelfthNightGuide.html

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.

Hey Mushroom, I'm about to write you an email in reference to WP:INACTIVITY but the procedure requires I also leave a note here. So, here's the note... Thanks, Drmies (talk) 17:56, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for contributing to the article Shigureden. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable, by being clearly attributed to reliable sources, preferably using 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 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. Thank you. --Jax 0677 (talk) 15:17, 4 December 2017 (UTC)

@Jax 0677: Thank you, I have added some references to the article. Mushroom (Talk) 12:39, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

@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. Drmies (talk) 15:11, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
