Platform magic?

In http://geniimagazine.com/magicpedia/Ron_Bauer#Private_Studies_Series, it lists "Close-Up","Parlor", "Platform","Stage". What do you consider to be the difference between Platform and Stage? Joe P. 10:35, 28 December 2014 (EST)

Joe, I'm not sure how to respond other than editing this.

  • Close-up: You're sitting
  • Parlor: You're standing
  • Platform: You're on a raised platform
  • Stage: You're on a stage

That works. Going to add Platform as a new category in magicpedia. Thanks!

Thanks

Thanks again for all the recent updates. Great stuff! Joe P. 20:08, 2 January 2015 (EST)

References needed

Are you using FIND THIS REFERENCE as just a temporary marker? If not, we have a {{citation needed}} template you can use.[citation needed]

Yes, temporary marker. I've replaced them and will use the template in the future. Thanks!

Apostrophe

While I was on the server. I made a change that should make adding possessives to a link easier. So this [[Don Alan]]'s Ranch Bird should be the same as [[Don Alan|Don Alan's]] Ranch Bird

Thanks for the redirects

Thanks for creating all the redirects! I do usually prefer that over doing them inline like [[Clarke "The Senator" Crandall|Clarke Crandall]] Joe P. 12:18, 18 January 2015 (EST)
