Hm, it looks like no one has extended you an official welcome yet. Let me fix that.

Hello, "Kevin M Marshall" and welcome to [[Wikipedia]]. A few tips for you:

*Peruse [[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers]] and associated pages, such as
**[[Wikipedia:How to edit a page]]
**[[Wikipedia:How to write a great article]]
**[[Wikipedia:Naming conventions]]
**[[Wikipedia:Manual of Style]]
*You can experiment in the [[Wikipedia:Sandbox]].
*Sign talk page entries with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>, which is automatically converted to a name and date.
*If you have any questions, see [[Wikipedia:Help]], or you can a question at the [[Wikipedia:Help desk]].
* I hope you enjoy editing here and being a [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedian]].


It's good to see another fellow [[New Orleans, Louisiana|New Orleanian]] here. Keep up the good work. Best wishes, -- [[User:Infrogmation|Infrogmation]] 17:25, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)

==New Playwright to Add==

Hi, i have created a page under my userspace and would like to have someone look at it before i move it to the livespace.  The page covers a current playwright.  Can you assist? ([[User:Johnmhearn|Johnmhearn]] ([[User talk:Johnmhearn|talk]]) 04:46, 8 January 2009 (UTC))

==Copywrights==

I noticed you've made quite a lot of edits with a lot of information, but be careful that you're not just cutting and pasting from other websites, which may be a violation of copyright. In particular, I noticed that the Kristin Chenoweth edits you made were almost verbatim from her website, which bears a copyright warning at the bottom of the page.Kevin M Marshall 20:15, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)

*Thank you for writing . . . I appreciate your concern and advice. I used the Chenoweth website for info, not a cut-and-paste job.  There are only so many ways you can phrase the same piece of information in an intelligent fashion, so I'm sorry if I didn't substitute synonyms wherever possible to make it sound different. What I find curious is that you created her Wikipedia entry with so little data, since the entries I've created are fairly extensive. Was there a reason for that? 

*The information I've added in my edits has been culled not only from websites, but from encyclopedias, books, magazines, newspapers, etc., as well?  Would these sources be considered copywrighted? Thanks! [[User:SFTVLGUY2|TOM]] 23:37, Nov 22, 2004 (UTC)

THANK YOU for all your advice and suggestions, as well as your compliment.  I'll definitely take a look at the musical theatre entry (since that's one of my primary interests) and see what I can add.  I appreciate your help and encouragement.  [[User:SFTVLGUY2|TOM]] 14:22, Nov 23, 2004 (UTC)

==Musical Theater==

Hello, Kevin - I spent a considerable amount of time on the musical theater entry today.  Most of the original material remains, although I reorganized a lot of it so it's a more chronological order.  I removed some of the sub-headings that had no data following them, and added quite a bit of text and several photos. I hope you like the additions . . . [[User:SFTVLGUY2|TOM]] 20:06, Nov 23, 2004 (UTC)

==Word to the wise==

Kevin:  An anonymous troll appears to have removed the notice for "Candide (musical)" from your user page.  (It's best to add one's user page to one's watchlist, to ensure things like this don't happen.)  [[User:CJCurrie|CJCurrie]] 20:56, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

==Hi==
I saw that you put your name on the the list of Wikipedians under classics.  I am having trouble right now.  Can you help?  [[vanavsos]], (I know that the name needs to be changed) is up for deletion can you help in the matter?  

And I have another doosy for you, they have deleted [Classical definition of republic] from the Wikipedia it is here at: [http://www.wikinfo.org/wiki.php?title=Classical_definition_of_republic Wikinfo:Classical definition of repubic] and I am having trouble at [[Talk:Republic]], with your expertise can you help?

I have created a category for Classical studies if you are interested in our field [[:Category:Classical studies]].  We need to defend our field.  I have also created [[Classical definition of effeminacy]] and that seems close to coming on the chopping block as well.  I surely need more guns (more Classicists) here at Wikipedia.  Thanks for your time.[[User:WHEELER|WHEELER]] 17:02, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

==Check it out==
We have an unmitigated disaster on our hands.  SimonP has been given full rein in the classical political section.  He has created [[mixed government]], [[politeia]], [[classical republicanism]] (that starts only in the 15th century), and has now moved [[republicanism]] to [[republic]].  The [[republic]] is a total disaster. And I am not allowed to edit or do anything there.  We need a Pow-wow of sorts. To sort this matter out.  The proper title of "mixed government" is "Republic" or at the least a "Classical republic".  We have a disaster on our hands.[[User:WHEELER|WHEELER]] 16:47, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I have now reopened the notice board, if you are interested in contributing new topics, or in nominating articles for the Collaboration of the Week, which also received a revamp. Please post on the project's talk page if you show interest. [[User:TheCustomOfLife|Mike H]] 02:46, Jun 19, 2005 (UTC)

== Thanks, Kevin ==

Thanks for your comments, Kevin, and thanks in advance for whatever help you can give. The article has spawned many "daughters" and it is hard to cover all of them. What a relief to know that you will give a helping hand.  [[User:Thomas S. Major|Thomas S. Major]] 03:29, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

==Native Latin speakers?==
Greetings, fellow Latinist. If you have second, please cast your two cents in on the [[Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2005_September_29#Category:User_la-N|discussion]] of a category for native Latin speakers who are also Wikipedians. --[[User:Flex|Flex]] 13:14, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

== [[Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical]] ==

I understand you wanted some of the bold left behind.  But in general, lots of bold is not a good idea, because bold indicates emphasis.  Because it is the film that is important, I have removed the majority of the bold, but I have left the films and only the films of the winners in bold.  Is this OK?  -[[User:X42bn6|<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 8pt; font-weight: bold;">x42bn6</span>]] [[User_talk:x42bn6|<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 8pt;">Talk</span>]] 02:01, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

==WikiProject Theatre Welcome==
Thank you for becoming a member of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Theatre|WikiProject Theatre]]! With your hard work we hope to build a comprehensive compendium of theatrical knowledge here on Wikipedia. Since its founding in May of this year, not much has happened here so I have started a discussion on the project’s talk page to arouse some interest and discussion. There is also an updated list of items needing attention on the main project page. If you know of or happen to come across a theatre related article needing attention, feel free to post it  on the page. Again, thanks for joining and I look forward to working with you!

==Help==
You have, in the past have said some kind words and showed support for my work. I appreciate that.  I have written two articles [[Cretan/Spartan connection]] can you check that out and see what you think and can I ask for a vote to make an "External link".  Thanks for your time.[[User:WHEELER|WHEELER]] 01:30, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Please check out the new design for the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Theatre|WikiProject Theatre]] page. You could say that "project page envy" led to the redesign. The French WikiProject Theatre page was much nicer looking than ours, so I spent a little time redesigning it. In addition, a theatre article assessment project has been started. This project aims to examine theatre articles, rate them and note what work needs to be done. </div>

== WikiProject Musicals ==

Hi!  I'm leaving you this message because your name is listed as a participant in [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Musicals|WikiProject Musicals]] (previously WikiProject Broadway) or I feel you may be interested in the project.  It seems that the project has laid dormant for quite awhile, but I would like to work toward getting it up and operative.  I have a few ideas that I've outlined on the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Musicals#Let's get this show on the road|talk page]], and would love your input.  Working together, I think we can signifigantly improve the quality of the articles relating to musicals on Wikipedia.  &mdash; &nbsp;[[User:MusicMaker5376|<span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">Music</span>]][[User Talk:MusicMaker5376|<span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">Maker</span>]] 06:16, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
