Got an Entry of historical importance? How the West was won, how Charlemagne came to power or even when sliced bread was first invented?

Tell me about it here, and I'll put a link to it in the Society or one of its wings.

Well, I've got an article on Dangermouse if you're interested.

History of Eric Clapton has also made official status in the guide, so you'll wanna update the link. I don't have the new one handy, sorry (lazylazylazy).

Agh! Why is it that whenever I mention Dangermouse somebody has to go "crumbs cheif!"
So, is it going to happen or no?

Meanwhile, I can't find the History of Eric Clapton link. You did put it up, didn't you?

Wolfman, Zaphodista :X (soon to be Zarquon again, or maybe not)

A newsletter sounds like a great idea, Mustapha! I look forward to seeing it!

Ok, one vote for a newsletter!

Oh, and Mike, your DM Entry will be added soon, probably in the English History wing and the film history section on the main page.

As for Eric, check out the new Prominent People wing:

Aaah. Thanks Mustapha. Must make a mental note that it includes musicians in it.

What's this newsletter? Is it something like the one for the Rambling Misfits?

Mustapha

Yeah, it'll probably be similar to that. I'm thinking it can be a weekly thing, letting people know about updates to the Society, the links of the week, and perhaps some small editorial comment from me to get some good ole' fashioned debate going.

As for Eric C, I'm probably going to add him to the Musical History wing as well. When both sections were on the main page, I didn't want to double up on links to save space. Now, that they have their own pages, there's a bit more space to play around with.

Ok, well, here's a third person who'd like to see a newsletter smiley - smiley
I think it would be ideal for something as big as this Society.

Five from here. I just haven't added anything Historical for a while except is the St. Patrick's Day article in it includes some History a fair amount of which I contributed.
