Hi,

I'm not a very active editor anymore, but aspire to get back into it as time allows. I teach social studies to middle schoolers in Saint Paul, Minnesota.

I created this account on January 23, 2007. It is named after a fictional character: a wise, but somewhat mad, prophet. Below this introduction is a dusty collection of tips and links which I have found useful.

Tip of the day...

Centralizing project discussion

When a project includes multiple operational pages, it is generally best to redirect their discussion pages to the main discussion page for the project. That way, participants remain aware of what is going on with the project without having to search out every nook and cranny where discussions may be taking place.

The exception to this strategy is when a task is delegated that would generate a great deal of discussion, and centralizing it with the project's other discussions would create a discussion page of unmanageable size.
