Thanks Plastikspork

Thanks Plastikspork for the encouraging note. I love researching and editing, and am rather clueless on Wikipedia. I appreciate your reading suggestions! Slowly but surely, Mikebreakrun3 (talk) 05:18, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Great. Let me know if you have any questions or problems. All the best. Plastikspork (talk) 16:14, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Peters

Hello, Mike. I disagree that Sally should be included in this list of roles for which Peters was "particularly noted" for the following reasons:

The revival of Follies was a limited run of five months.
For the other Broadway shows listed in the sentence, she *created* the first four roles, *won* a Tony and the DD award for Annie Get Your Gun and, for Gypsy, she was nominated for both the Tony and the DD, the album won the Grammy, and she performed in the role for more than a year.
Peters was nominated for 7 Tonys and 9 DD awards, so the nomination alone is not dispositive -- We don't list On the Town or The Goodbye Girl, for each of which she got a Tony nomination.
The shorter the list of roles for which she is "particularly noted", the more powerful the list is. The longer a list gets, the less likely people will read it and take it in. It is always a judgment call to draw that line, but I'd rather delete Gypsy than add Follies.

But if you are not persuaded, I suggest that you open a discussion on the article's Talk page, and solicit comments by other editors (see WP:BRD). It may be that other people will agree with you. All the best! -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:06, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Ssilvers. Now I know firsthand why you're praised so often for your contributions! Your thoughtful and complete description of your process is admirable, too. Of course, I now understand why putting Sally on the list would be a mistake. You're a great example, Ssilvers. Happy trails, Mike. Mikebreakrun3 (talk)

Thanks, Mike, for this very kind message and your open-mindedness. Happy editing! -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:43, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thermal energy storage

Section headings (the == Header == stuff) needs to be on its own line (a few exceptions) or it doesn't display correctly. Please check your work to see that it is displaying properly. Any citations should also be checked. You can use the wp:Show preview button to avoid leaving experimental edits on the wp:page history (which reduces clutter on the server).
