PrincessofLlyr royal court Welcome! I check my account daily, so if you leave a message on my talk page I will get back with you as quickly as possible. I'm still messing around with formatting here, so if you have any suggestions please leave them on my talk page. I am in the process of attempting to revive WikiProject Homeschooling and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for visiting! About me I've been editing on Wikipedia since May 2009. I do actually have a life outside Wikipedia, so my contributions fluctuate in number. I am female. I work a lot on literature related articles. On occasion I like to pick up stub articles (generally BLP's) and expand them. I have no interest in becoming an administrator. My views on notability are somewhere in between deletionist and inclusionist, leaning toward inclusion. I am in the process of attempting to revive WikiProject Homeschooling and any help would be greatly appreciated. Any helpful comments about my editing are welcome, as are suggestions of articles or projects in which I might be interested. Areas where I work New Page Patrol Recent Changes Patrol Editor review Motto of the Day adopting the WikiProjects listed in the userboxes to the side. My username In case you're wondering (yeah, I know, you weren't wondering), my username, PrincessofLlyr, is derived from Lloyd Alexander's character, Eilonwy, Princess of Llyr. I can't necessarily say that she's my favorite character, but I like her and her title! I also edit Simple Wikipedia under this name, but currently no other occurrences of this name on the web are me. Quotes "Always after a defeat and a respite, the shadow takes another shape and grows again." "I wish it need not happen in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for us to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us." - The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien "Is a puzzlement!" - The King and I "It is a false lie!" - The King and I Userboxes Column-generating template families The templates listed here are not interchangeable. For example, using {{col-float}} with {{col-end}} instead of {{col-float-end}} would leave a <div>...</div> open, potentially harming any subsequent formatting. Column templates Type Family Handles wiki table code?† Responsive/ mobile suited Start template Column divider End template Float "col-float" Yes Yes {{col-float}} {{col-float-break}} {{col-float-end}} "columns-start" Yes Yes {{columns-start}} {{column}} {{columns-end}} Columns "div col" Yes Yes {{div col}} – {{div col end}} "columns-list" No Yes {{columns-list}} (wraps div col) – – Flexbox "flex columns" No Yes {{flex columns}} – – Table "col" Yes No {{col-begin}}, {{col-begin-fixed}} or {{col-begin-small}} {{col-break}} or {{col-2}} .. {{col-5}} {{col-end}} † Can the template handle the basic wiki markup {| | || |- |} used to create tables? If not, special templates that produce these elements (such as {{(!}}, {{!}}, {{!!}}, {{!-}}, {{!)}}) or HTML tags (<table>...</table>, <tr>...</tr>, etc.) need to be used instead. Royal Library Favorite Books, Authors, and Characters Just a note, this is not a complete list. I like too many books to list them all! The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas The Hunchback of Notre Dame by Victor Hugo The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Orczy - Actually, I like all of the Pimpernel novels I've read, but I'm not going to list them all. Sanditon by Jane Austen and Another Lady - I like Austen's books, but this one is my favorite, probably because it's not exactly Austen's style! The Complete Robot by Isaac Asimov - My favorite stories are "Liar!" and "The Bicentennial Man". Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury - The idea of burning books! Ugh. The Westmark Trilogy - Westmark, The Kestrel, and The Beggar Queen by Lloyd Alexander. Stargirl and Love, Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli. Lloyd Alexander. I like almost all of his books that I've read. The Prydain Chronicles, The Westmark Trilogy, The Vesper Holly books, and various stand-alones. Eilonwy, daughter of Angharad, daughter of Regat, Princess of Llyr. Yes, that's where my username comes from! Quasimodo. He's sweet and sad. Esmeralda drives me crazy! The Beast of Beauty and the Beast. Kind of similar to what I like about Quasimodo. He's a Prince Charming without the perfect good looks. What nice guy is Prince Charming handsome anyway? Oh, and I'm not really a fan of Disney's Beauty and the Beast. I much prefer the traditional story! But I do like the music. Recent Reading The Golden Apples of the Sun by Ray Bradbury The Dark Elf Trilogy and Icewind Dale Trilogy by R. A. Salvatore Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy States My sandbox My userboxes My welcome template - shamelessly copied from Airplaneman! Agenda Clear out the back log of WikiProject Novels' unknown-importance articles. You can help! [1] Improve Percy Jackson & the Olympians. See the talk page for to-do list. Cleanup Pendragon series and related pages. Court Fool I came across this edit and unfortunately, had to revert it. Read the first sentence of the article! Warriors (novel series) [2] I'm not entirely sure this counts as fun, but he does express my opinions on speed deletion exactly. [3] This isn't "fun" either, but he has some keen observations: Antandrus's observation on Wikipedia behavior. Another lovely example of why Wikipedia is a reliable source:[4] The vandalism is quite unacceptable, but I happen to like the reverting editor's summary - [5] The things vandals come up with! Check out the edit summary: [6] So many Twilight haters (with a creative edit summary)! Very good observations on immature Wikipedians: User:Voceditenore/A handy guide to fooling Wikipedians about your age. SineBot calls IP a "moron" (in the edit summary) Minor spelling errors? Really? Proclamations My first GA review! [7] First Good Article I significantly contributed to: The Titan's Curse! I mostly contributed to fixing problems mentioned in the GA review. The most credit definitely goes to Airplaneman for doing tons of work to make it happen! Royal Jewels The Userpage Shield Thanks for getting that vandalism off my talk page!
