As a newly-minted Wikipedia user and editor of a soon-to-be-published article about Immersion, I am happy to let the Wikipedia world know that I have a publishing background including starting a few periodicals in Brooklyn in the 90s. I'm not making any profit over any references to Waterfront Week or Breukelen Magazine, which are two publications I was involved with 30 years ago, both of which are no longer published. At least 20 people have contributed to this article.

Welcome!

Hi @Shipsmasthub, @Sm8900 tipped me off to have a look at the – now public – “Brooklyn Immersionists” article. You’re doing wonderful work. It’s really an exhilarating read!

Compared to the document I read a few years ago, the language and tone are an order of magnitude better, much more appropriate for an encyclopedia.

Over the last years I’ve been intermittently liaising with @Sm8900. He’s been super supportive of the effort. He’s also a Wikipedia insider and an endless source of good advice. He told met that:

 “...the article has turned out to be highly stable, meaning that almost no one has tried to make any major changes. So we seem to be on solid ground.”

Kudos!

hi there! i know, i welcomed you already, but i found this neat template, which includes a medal! keep it up with your editing efforts! enjoy!! Sm8900 (talk) 13:45, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, Sm8900!
The medal is welcome! :-) And the links above are very helpful. Your guidance with footnotes, style and length shrinkage has been indispensable. We’ve also had some very nice “kudos" on this project from the writer and editor, Kit Blake in Rotterdam (who called it “an exhilarating read”) and more recently the New York music historian, Cisco Bradley who teaches at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn:
"I have been continuously impressed with the Wiki you all authored on Immersionism. Wikipedia has such varying quality in its articles and so yours stands out far above the vast majority of what is contained there. I appreciate the varying perspectives and the multitude of sources you have gathered for it.” —Prof. Cisco Bradley, Pratt Institute of Art, May 6, 2024
Thanks again, Sm8900 for your wonderful guidance!
