I tried to post again under the "Mobile phone" website but added citations this time like the guy wanted. I hope it stays up for awhile. No one has contributed to the "Phone Novel" Wikipediea site or discussion page. I don't know what's going on. I was thinking maybe after I do my hypertext essay, people would take the topic into consederation. We'll see. I'll post again with updates.
Usage (the subtitle I created in "Mobile Phones")
A Mobile phone novel or cell phone novels are the first literary genre to emerge from the cellular age via text messaging to a website that collects the novels as a whole. In virtual online computer games, readers can put themselves into first person in the story. Cell phone novels create a personal space for each individual reader. Paul Levinson, in Information on the Move (2004), says "...nowadays, a writer can write just about as easily, anywhere, as a reader can read" and they are "not only personal but portable".

Someone TALKED BACK!! OMG this was sooo FUNNY! You guys have to go to the "Mobile phone" website on Wikipedia on the discussion page under the subtopic "Mobile Phone Novels" (its the last topic, so just scroll to the bottom) Or you can click on the link above for a direct connection. So this guy, "Lord-something or other" got mad at me!! As expected he took down my post and made a RUDE comment about my "Uncitied sourcing" and how I have to "get use to" doing it a different way. He told me to read some stupid link he posted! What a JERK!!!!!! LOL Anyway, I thought it was really funny. At least someone talked to me. I'm going to try to post it again with PERFECT citations to show him up (after I read his precious link) to show him up. I'll post again soon with results. How exciting!!

As Professor Chandler suggested I "antagonized a website to bring traffic" to my website. In other words, I went to the "Mobile Phone" general site (talking about SIM card, phone laws, handsets, etc.) and just added a section on my topic, with of course, a link that brings users right to MY Wiki-site of phone novels. Hopefully, now the people who look up or edit the general "mobile phone" site will also be intrugeed to my mobile phone novel site as well. This is the link to my newest post onm Wikipedia. I also added to the discussion page, explaining what my goal was. We'll see how long it will stay up and if anyone responds this time! My post is all the way down to the bottom entitled "Mobile Phone Novels". It is very short since it's experimental. I will be sure to add more if the post survives a few hours/day. Leave comments if you wanna!!

First post on phone novels. I added to the discussion page, seeking assistance to anyone who may be interested. I identified what I want to do and listed where I will be doing research for the page. I'm not sure if I will get a respose bcause the only person who EVER posted to the discussion page made the post in 2007 for a research assignment. I'm thinking I'm alone on this one, which is fine actually because at least there's plenty of information and stuff I can add since no one else did.

FIRST actual edit post on Wikipedia!!! AND it's still up! YAY!!! Check it out. I even added link for certain words some people may not know or want further information on. I'm so proud! You guys should be able to recognize what information I posted because I used the article "I <3>'''Cell phone''' or '''mobile phone novels''' called ''keitai shousetsu'' in Japanese, are the first [[literary genre]] to emerge from the cellular age via [[text messaging]]. Phone novels started out primarily read and authored by young [[Japanese]] women, on the subject of [[romantic fiction]] such as relationships, lovers, rape, love triangles, and pregnancy. However, mobile phone novels are trickling their way to a worldwide popularity on all subjects. Japanese [[ethos]] of the Internet regarding mobile phone novels are dominated by false names and forged identities. Therefore, identities of the Japanese authors of mobile phone novels are rarley disclosed. "Net transvestities" are of the most extreme play actors of the sort. Differing from regular novels, mobile phone novels may be structured according to the authors preference. If a couple is fighting in the story, the author may choose to have the lines closely spaced and crowded. On the contrary, if the author writes a calm or soothing poem the line spacing may be further apart than normal. Overall, the line spacing of phone novels contains enough blank space for an easy read. (SKIP A FEW LINES). Maho iLand is the largest cell phone novel site that carries more than a million titles, mainly novist writers, all which are available for free. Maho iLand provides templates for blogs and homepages. It is visted 3.5 billion times each month. In 2007 98 cell phone novels were published into books. (Under the HISTORY section I added the following) The first cell phone novel was “published” in Japan in 2003 by a Tokyo man in his mid-thirties who calls himself "Yoshi".
3/19/09- WOW I can't believe it but my post is still up! EVERYTHING I posted is still there. I'm really glad because I worked really hard on the wording and trying to make it perfect. Maybe it's because absolutely no one cares about that site and there was barely any information to begin with. LOL. I haven't gotten any response from the discussion page. I'm going to keep checking and if anything changes, I'll make a post.
Safe place, no judgement.
