Talk:Mary Rose/2009/December

Update assistance

I've been working on a major update of this article for a few months now and I have been tinkering with it at a sub-page of mine that can be found at user:Peter Isotalo/novelties. The reason for my not doing the editing in article space is because I've wanted to submit it as a DYK. There's also the matter of waiting for a possible image donation from the Mary Rose Trust that is in the works. Anticipating that the update will be realized within a few weeks, I'm inviting anyone who's interested in improving the quality of the update (and to share DYK credits) to freely edit the above mentioned draft.

The principle DYK update has now been implemented. A request will soon be placed at T:TDYK to have this article featured either on January 3 or 4 (not decided which is best yet) to coincide with a press release about an image donation from the Mary Rose Trust. The images themselves will be uploaded just before the press release on January 3 and will be inserted into this and other articles just after. For more info and discussion, see Wikipedia talk:Did you know#Scheduling a DYK date.

And help with improving the article in time for the press release is of course greatly appreciated.

I thought an article had to be of featured status before main-page exposure. Perhaps they make exceptions. Tony (talk) 03:32, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

It's going to be featured on the main page rather than Featured. The article's undergone a five-fold expansion so will be in the DYK section. Unfortunately, I don't see a way of getting the article through FAC in time for 4 January. Nev1 (talk) 03:40, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Dealt with. Only divider and pontoon remain, and I'm not entirely sure what to do with them. Neither has dedicated articles to the meanings referred to here.

Those two now dealt with. --Una Smith (talk) 23:36, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
