Talk:Brian Lamb

message: For anyone who may have this page watchlisted, I have proposed a substantial expansion and re-organization of this article at WikiProject Cooperation's Paid Editor Help page. As you might expect from that preface, I have undertaken the research and rewriting of this article on behalf of C-SPAN, as an outside consultant. (My proposed draft is here.) I've posted a fairly thorough explanation of what my version seeks to add and improve there, and I'd like to invite anyone who sees this here to comment over there. If you have any concerns, please raise them on that page, and I'll respond in a timely manner. If you like it, feel free to move it over. Cheers, WWB Too (talk) 05:10, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks, DS. In fact this is the draft I had proposed then, as moved into place by another editor, following a bit of discussion and some mutually agreed upon changes. If you're curious to see what it looked like prior to the update, . Cheers, WWB Too (talk) 19:56, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

message: Greetings fellow Wikipedia editor(s) -
Let me put forward an idea that I have been kicking around for a while. What if we started a C-SPAN WikiProject? 
The parameters of this (potential) project are up for discussion, but it could include some or all of the following (as well as things that may occur to you that have not occurred to me):
*Creation, maintenance, and improvement of articles and lists directly related to C-SPAN and its programming.
*Use of C-SPAN programming in citations for various topics
*Inclusion of unique and targeted C-SPAN video links for various articles. (Doing this with respect for established guidelines at Wikipedia:External links.) (Example: If you are interested in the submarine USS Wyoming (SSBN-742), then having easy access to the eight hours of programming taped while a C-SPAN crew were guests on that submarine could also be of interest to you.)
*Inclusion of (and possible further creation of) templated links such as , that will easily take article readers to a link of all C-SPAN Video Library links for the person about whom the article is about.
*What else?
I don't know exactly how far we may want to go, nor in what directions, but I do believe (as I have long noted on my user page) that C-SPAN and Wikipedia are both...
...fantastic vehicles for the free exchange of ideas and information in a non-sound-bite manner, and they both invite the participation of any parties (expert or amateur) who are interested in taking the time to absorb and/or contribute to the ideas and information offered. C-SPAN and Wikipedia go together like peanut butter and jelly, and I want to help give other Wiki users easy access to the great work that C-SPAN has done on a variety of topics.
Now, I should mention that I have never started a WikiProject before, and I do not know the best way to go about it. (Perhaps one of you do?) Let me offer one of my sandbox pages, User:KConWiki/sandbox/Wikiproject C-SPAN?, as a gathering area for comments until such time as we gather enough steam to start our own WikiProject page. 
I hope that you will give some consideration as to whether this is something we ought to attempt. Please feel free to pass this message on to others you know whom might be interested, and please let me know your thoughts and comments.
