Links[edit source]

The video links are dead, and for what's worth it: what's the purpose of a page that hosts only four links? What was the intention? Listing all lectures? I tried with Tom Shippey and that isn't even complete. -- Ederchil (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 16:44, 26 August 2008 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Ignoring the current state of the article, I still think an article which includes all the available audio/video lectures, either through links or embedding, would be worthwhile for those looking to watch/listen to lectures but do not know or care which scholar they are interested in. We definitely don't want to just list titles of lectures as there would be little purpose. (The Shippey article looks fantastic btw) --Hyarion 17:03, 26 August 2008 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Shippey isn't complete yet. I've ordered Author of the century so I can write something extra on that, and plan to look up his movie reviews in the University library, to summarize his views on them. -- Ederchil (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 17:14, 26 August 2008 (UTC)Reply[reply]

List?[edit source]

Can we count this as a list? An Index? -- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  22:08, 21 June 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Not sure we can count this as a useful article at all! (Which Ederchil was hinting at above.) Unless someone wants to do something with this I would delete it. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 22:23, 21 June 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I think it has some little use, and as we already have it, I’m in favour of keeping it. I would definitely count this as a list, as it lists external links only, not articles. — Mithrennaith 03:14, 22 June 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I'm in favour of keeping aswell. --Amroth 13:59, 22 June 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]
In my opinion, remove unless someone steps in to take responsibility of expanding and keeping the list updated.--Morgan 14:03, 22 June 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]
