Article Errors

I've added the body of the article to my sandbox page. What errors do I need to specifically change in order to make it correct?CDucharme (talk) 17:04, 14 September 2020 (EDT)

@CDucharme: Mostly you need to add the notes, citation, and read for typos. It’s meticulous, but that’s the job. (Thanks for signing.) —Grlucas (talk) 17:08, 14 September 2020 (EDT)

Hey, I need help with instructions for the Norman Mailer Bibliography for the remediation project. I am not sure what I am supposed to do.AJohnson (talk) 29 March 2021 (EDT)

@AJohnson: You need to remediate the bibliography by adding missing entries from the PDF to the article on this site using the correct templates. As the note on the bibliography says, you may use Norman Mailer Bibliography: 2007 as a model. —Grlucas (talk) 14:48, 29 March 2021 (EDT)

Final edits

Dr. Lucas, I have finished remediating my assigned article. Please review it at your earliest convenience. The link is here: Norman Mailer's Mythmaking in An American Dream and “The White Negro”—Erhernandez (talk) 08:52, 4 April 2025 (EDT)

Dr. Lucas, I transferred and edited my article. Can you look at it and remove the banner? Here's the link: Authorship and Alienation in Death in the Afternoon and Advertisements for Myself ( APKnight25 (talk) 13:02, 28 March 2025 (EDT) )

@APKnight25: looking good! A couple of things: never bury your talk page post. Put it at the bottom, preferably in its own section by clicking "Add topic" on the top-right. Next, eliminate all "fang" quotes in the article and add “real quotation marks.” Your sources should be a bulleted list. And there should be no space before a citation. You’re almost finished! —Grlucas (talk) 11:21, 30 March 2025 (EDT)

Hello, Dr. Lucas, I finished editing my article. May I have the banner removed?KJordan (talk) 20:13, 22 September 2020 (EDT)KJordan

@KJordan: Maybe. You should always link to something you want me to have a look at, please. —Grlucas (talk) 20:14, 22 September 2020 (EDT)

Dr. Lucas, I have finished editing my article. Can you please review it? Thank You. Here is a link to it: https://projectmailer.net/pm/The_Mailer_Review/Volume_2,_2008/The_Heart_of_the_Nation:_Jewish_Values_in_the_Fiction_of_Norman_Mailer --AMurray (talk) 21:56, 23 September 2020 (EDT)

@AMurray: Looking good! However, I still see quote a few typos. There should be no space before a footnote or citation.^[1] And all parenthetical citations need to be converted. I also see a lot of missing punctuation, especially around citations. —Grlucas (talk) 07:24, 24 September 2020 (EDT)

Hello, Dr. Lucas! I have completed remediation on The Mailer Review/Volume 4, 2010/The American Civil War in The Naked and the Dead and Across the River and Into the Trees. Can you please let me know if there's anything I need to correct? Thanks so much! KaraCroissant (talk) 17:11, 1 April 2025 (EDT)

@KaraCroissant: great work! A couple of things: never bury your talk page post. Put it at the bottom, preferably in its own section by clicking "Add topic" on the top-right. Other than that—great job! I have removed the banner, so you are free to help with the rest of the volume. Thanks! —Grlucas (talk) 08:58, 3 April 2025 (EDT)

Hi, Dr. Lucas. I think I have finished my PM article:Hemingway to Mailer-A Delayed Response to The Deer Park. Please let me know if there is anything else needed from me. Hobbitonya (talk) 17:54, 2 April 2025 (EDT)

@Hobbitonya: nice work. A couple of things: never bury your talk page post. Put it at the bottom, preferably in its own section by clicking "Add topic" on the top-right. Look at punctuation placement and footnotes; commas go inside quotation marks; punctuation goes before footnotes. You still have some citation issues. Note the read errors at the bottom of the page. These need to be gone. (Check the Mailer 1963 short footnote; there is no corresponding citation for 1963.) Thanks! —Grlucas (talk) 08:58, 3 April 2025 (EDT)

Hi Dr. Lucas. I think I have finished my article: https://projectmailer.net/index.php?title=The_Mailer_Review/Volume_4,_2010/Ernest_and_Norman:_A_Dialogue_in_Two_Acts&oldid=17870 Please let me know if there is anything I need to fix. Also, let me know if the link is working. DSánchez (talk) 17:13, 3 April 2025 (EDT)

@DSánchez: looks good. I removed the banner, but please remove all the links. I understand what you were trying to do, but it's unnecessary. Thanks. —Grlucas (talk) 07:13, 4 April 2025 (EDT)

Article Request

Dr. Lucas. I have started working on another article. Would you be able to send me the PDF of "The Savage Poet-- Unlocking the Universe With Metaphor" so that I can help add to the article? Klcrawford (talk) 18:24, 23 February 2021 (EST)

@Klcrawford: Done. Thank you. —Grlucas (talk) 07:46, 24 February 2021 (EST)

Here is the link for the remediation I did for this weeks assignment. I did not now where to place the link.

Thank you, Trevor Ryals

@TRyals: Thank you, but this is unnecessary. Just do the work; I promise I will see it. (And be sure to sign your talk page posts.) —Grlucas (talk) 18:16, 2 February 2021 (EST)

Summer 2021

Can you please review my article? I have a couple errors that I do not understand how to fix. Other than that, I am finished. https://projectmailer.net/pm/User:PLowery/sandbox

Can you review my article again please? I think I might be done. PLowery (talk)

@PLowery: In order for you to be finished, your entire article must be posted in the mainspace. Thanks. —Grlucas (talk) 07:29, 21 June 2021 (EDT)

Done

I believe I have it done correctly now.

My topic person is Marion Stegeman Hodgson,however she was not my first choice. There are four others who initially chose Hodgson, Tyler McMillan, Elizabeth Webb, Caleb Andrews, and Marguerite Walker. I haven't gotten in touch with either classmate as of this date however.KWilcox (talk)Kenneth Wilcox(KWilcox)July 7, 2021KWilcox (talk)

@KWilcox: This work should be done on Wikipedia. Please post all questions and work about project 2 on Wikipedia. Thanks. —Grlucas (talk) 09:12, 8 July 2021 (EDT)

Remediation of "Reinventing the Wheel" Mailer Article for Review

Dr. Lucas,

My article is ready for review.

Thank you! TPoole (talk) 15:29, 29 March 2025 (EDT)

@TPoole: great! Could you include a link to it? Thanks. —Grlucas (talk) 11:07, 30 March 2025 (EDT)

OK, I found it. Looking really good. Great work. There are some citation issues that need to be seen to. The two red categories at the bottom should not be there; they will go away when the citations errors are corrected. Eliminate any quotation mark "fangs" in the text and replace them with “real quotation marks.” Let me know if you need help. —Grlucas (talk) 11:14, 30 March 2025 (EDT)

@Grlucas, what are the citation issues? Which ones need correcting? TPoole (talk) 17:31, 31 March 2025 (EDT)

@TPoole: When you click your citations, they should jump to the works cited entry they correspond to. Several of yours do not, indicated by the red “Harv and Sfn no-target errors” at the bottom. You also have a "CS1 maint: Unrecognized language" error that will likely be cleared up when you fix the citation issues. —Grlucas (talk) 08:55, 1 April 2025 (EDT)

Remediation of: "Contradictory Syntheses: Norman Mailer’s Left Conservatism and the Problematic of 'Totalitarianism'"

Dr. Lucas

I finished the remediation of the following article:

https://projectmailer.net/pm/The_Mailer_Review/Volume_5,_2011/Contradictory_Syntheses:_Norman_Mailer%E2%80%99s_Left_Conservatism_and_the_Problematic_of_%E2%80%9CTotalitarianism%E2%80%9D

It is ready for your review. Thank you. JKilchenmann (talk) 19:04, 30 March 2025 (EDT)

@JKilchenmann: looks great. I made some tweaks to the references and some throughout, like changing ' and " to real apostrophes and quotation marks. A bit more clean-up, but you might want to check over it again. I removed the under-construction banner. Well one. —Grlucas (talk) 21:32, 30 March 2025 (EDT)

Final Edit

Thank you for your comments on my remediation of "Authorship and Alienation in Death in the Afternoon and Advertisements for Myself."

I've eliminated the "fang quotes" and changed them to “real quotation marks.” This was a very fascinating tip that taught me something new. It's something I've never noticed before but now always will.

I also put my sources in a bulleted list and removed the space before the citations. I think I'm all set now.

@APKnight25: great work! Please help other editors to complete the volume. Thanks! —Grlucas (talk) 08:34, 3 April 2025 (EDT)

Remediation for Firearms in the Works of Hemingway and Mailer

Grlucas

Hi Dr. Lucas,

I believe I have done everything for the Remediation of my article. Please let me know if there is anything else I need to do.

I will also link the article below:

https://projectmailer.net/pm/The_Mailer_Review/Volume_4,_2010/Firearms_in_the_Works_of_Hemingway_and_Mailer

Thank you, Caitlin Vinson

@CVinson: great work so far. Your references must use templates, please. Blockquotes must also be done correctly. No spaces or line breaks before or after the {{pg}} template. Footnote placement is also off (punctuation goes before the footnote; no spaces before or after the footnote). I will add the abstract and url. Thanks. —Grlucas (talk) 08:30, 3 April 2025 (EDT)

Remediation for Norman Mailer Today

Dr. Lucas, I have finished up my remediation article Norman Mailer Today, and it is ready for review. Please let me know if I missed something. Thank you! —Kamyers (talk) 18:20, 3 April 2025 (EDT)

@Kamyers: Great work! Please help your fellow editors finish the volume, or pick something to work on in Volume 4. Thanks, and well done. —Grlucas (talk) 07:00, 4 April 2025 (EDT)
