User blog:LilyLacreag/Plans for 2016

Hi!

Well, we finally have a new year! I wish you all only the best and may all your dreams come true! Many people make new year's resolutions on this day and I realised that today is a wonderful opportunity to write down my plans for this year.


 * I intend to watch and add the remaining 24 episodes of Kon'nichiwa Anne: Before Green Gables (most likely after the finale of Green Gables Fables).
 * Watch Episodes 3-6 of Anne of Avonlea.
 * Find the remaining cast lists of Anne of Green Gables – The Musical and Anne & Gilbert.
 * Update the book appearances.
 * Finish my research on the Australian radio dramas (didn't have time for that in 2015).
 * Add many new pages.

It's always better to plan less things, I guess. You never know what may show up. I really hope I'll manage to find the musical cast lists. I tried to do that in September and was unsuccessful - I don't think I've ever shared the story with you. Well, I found a Facebook group Charlottetown Festival In Review - its members are the actors who performed at some point at the festival. The admin, John Frederick Brown, uploaded all the festival programmes but 1980-1997 and 2012-onwards. I've already used the available information as you might have noticed, but I still need the missing years.

I decided to contact Mr. Brown and ask him about the missing scans. As I couldn't find his e-mail address, I wrote him a really long message on Facebook. He hasn't replied yet. Then I wrote an e-mail to Roy Urbach, one of the actors and active members of the group, and asked him for advice. Mr. Urbach replied, but was not able to help me. In the following months, I didn't have time to do anything concerning the musical. However, I visited the group today and noticed that some of the actors/members discussed actresses who played Prissy Andrews and one of them quoted our AoGG Wiki (with a source)! It was really heart-warming - knowing that our page is a reliable source of AoGG information. Now I want to finish it more than ever, but I don't really know what to do next. Whom to write? Whom to ask? Any suggestions?

I also have an idea. I've seen it on Harry Potter wiki and it inspired me to do something similar here. Well, some names in AoGG-universe are usually translated into different languages (the names of places, buildings, clubs and societies etc.). I was thinking about creating some sort of dictionary/glossary in which you can find all the translations. For example in the English-Slovak one would be Green Gables - Zelený dom (lit.: Green House). What do you think?

Well, that's all for today. Have a happy and successful new year!
