I’d like to offer deepest appreciations to [[Mike Lennon]] for his indefatigable support and enthusiasm for ''An American Dream'' Expanded. He has been an inspiration and an endless source of knowledge and resources: it’s from him that most of the original material for this project came from. He once called Mailer Proteus; if that’s true, then Mike’s some sort of Mailerian muse: a fount and guarantor of all things Mailer. I, too, would like to thank [[Maggie McKinley]] for her support as the president of the Norman Mailer Society and all of our endeavors here. Dana Casper, the graduate librarian at Middle Georgia State University, offered her support and guidance to me and the class, and [https://wikiedu.org Wiki Education] also provided training and other resources for new editors. | I’d like to offer deepest appreciations to [[Mike Lennon]] for his indefatigable support and enthusiasm for ''An American Dream'' Expanded.

The work of my students has been stellar, especially [[User:Dillbug|Sandy Callaway]], [[User:Dmcgonagill|Dana McGonagill]], [[User:Mango Masala|Miriam Qureshi]], [[User:Sherita Sims-Jones|Sherita Sims-Jones]], and [[User:JVbird|Josef Vice]]. Their efforts were consistent, enthusiastic, and went well beyond the class requirements. They are examples of just how a collaborative project should be accomplished, | The work of my students has been stellar, especially [[User:Dillbug|Sandy Callaway]], [[User:Dmcgonagill|Dana McGonagill]], [[User:Mango Masala|Miriam Qureshi]], [[User:Sherita Sims-Jones|Sherita Sims-Jones]], and [[User:JVbird|Josef Vice]]. Their efforts were consistent, enthusiastic, and went well beyond the class requirements. They are examples of just how a collaborative project should be accomplished, evidenced throughout the talk pages. While tentative at first, all of them adopted the Wikipedia mantra to “be bold” in their edits, and when needed, they asked questions, discussed their approaches, and came to a consensus. Based on their work here and on Wikipedia, I am confident that all of them grew from wiki neophytes to competent editors over the course of the last two months. This project would not have been the same without them. | ||
