Approval Area

This article is being nominated by an editor using the Individual Editor approval method. --Matt Innis (Talk) 21:10, 3 May 2007 (CDT)

Just a note to reiterate my approval vote for this article, and ask that the most current version be moved to the approved page when the draft page is created. Many thanks, Russell Potter 14:54, 12 May 2007 (CDT)

Approval?

Is there some type of system in place where authors nominate articles for approval? I am aware of CZ:Approval_Process, however I don't know that we have enough editors policing the '1' status articles for them to get seen and templated with [{ToApprove}} --Eric M Gearhart 04:43, 11 April 2007 (CDT)

Nice work by the way. Well done. Exactly the kind of article that brought me here in the first place --Eric M Gearhart 06:35, 11 April 2007 (CDT)

I hereby nominate the present version of this entry for Approval. I think it's quite robust, well-documented, and well-written; my only thoughts toward improvement would be toward strengthening the very end of the entry, with some discussion of what other media supplanted this endeavor, and giving a more definite sense of the entry's conclusion -- a sort of summing. Other than that, I think it's fabulous! Russell Potter 09:59, 3 May 2007 (CDT)

Is there some reason why this article doesn't live at telephone newspaper (lower case)? It's not a proper name, is it? --Larry Sanger 23:35, 3 May 2007 (CDT)

Since the wiki capitalizes everything (or, I should say, handles things the same either way), I'd prefer to have this article stay as it is. Russell Potter 13:26, 12 May 2007 (CDT)

Well, lower-casing article titles is a common practice on MediaWiki wikis, because it makes it much easier to interlink articles. We do not have to write [[Telephone Newspaper|telephone newspaper]] when linking to an article in passing; we simply write telephone newspaper. --Larry Sanger 17:11, 12 May 2007 (CDT)

I'm happy to abide by the general practice; it just feels odd to type the lowercase title, even knowing it will display with a capitalized first word. A hangover from the print era, I'm sure. Thanks also for doing the approval mechanics here -- looks great! Russell Potter 17:20, 12 May 2007 (CDT)

Congrats!

Congratulations to the Media Workgroup, Thomas H. White, Russell Potter, and everyone else involved. The first approved Media article! --Larry Sanger 17:11, 12 May 2007 (CDT)
