WikiProject Shannara

Hi Gary!

I noticed that you have made a lot of Shannara edits, and would like to know if you would like to join WikiProject Shannara, a WikiProject devoted to creating and improving Shannara-related articles. Thanks, Alex Nisnevich (talk) (03:20, 11 August 2005 (UTC)).

I was actually thinking of doing so when I got this message. What a lovely coincidence. Sure, I'd love to join the project. Gary_McEnroe | (talk) 16:11, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks! You can join here. --Alex Nisnevich (talk) 16:19, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

Another Shannara-related question

Another Shannara-related question: Are User:Gary_McEnroe\Shannara_Druids and User:Gary_McEnroe/Grianne works in progress?

Yes, they are. I was about to put Shannara Druids onto a proper article actually, now that I've got quite a few of the Druids on it so far.Gary_McEnroe | (talk) 03:17, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Just a suggestion: Maybe you should make User:Gary_McEnroe\Shannara_Druids a section of a larger article (Shannara druids), and have the larger article also include information about druids in general? -- Alex Nisnevich (talk) 03:19, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

That's a good idea. On a tiny related note, I feel druids should begin with a capital letter i.e. Druids, seeing as that's how it's always spelled in the novels, so I was going to create the article Shannara Druids rather than Shannara druids.Gary_McEnroe | (talk) 03:24, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Right. -- Alex Nisnevich (talk) 03:27, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

I shall get started on that tomorrow, as it is now the late hours of the morning here, and I need some shut-eye. Gary_McEnroe | (talk) 03:28, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Just wondering, when do you think User:Gary_McEnroe/Shannara_Druids will be ready to be released on WIkipedia? -- Alex Nisnevich (talk) 21:06, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

I just need to do a few more things with it, it should be ready for tomorrow evening/Saturday morning. I've been busy getting prepared for starting college in about a week's time, or I'd have been done by now.Gary_McEnroe | (talk) 22:32, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

Urgh, once again I've misplaced my copies of Sword and Elfstones, so I won't be able to write up those parts of Shannara Druids. Apart from them, there's not much else that I need to add, so if I post Shannara Druids, you or someone else with a good recollection of what Allannon did in those books can add it to the article.Gary_McEnroe | (talk) 19:03, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks!

For your help with WikiProject Shannara, I hereby award you this WikiThanks award.
