Keep your eyes open: I found the second lecture was available from the Ideas Canada podcast on www.radio4all.net.
Keep your eyes open as you never know more of the series of five lecture might become available through this service (search on radio4all or subscibe to trhe podcast and please update the links when this occurs... The complete package of five is available commercially from the publisher and CBC Canada and believe me they are VERY VERY good and certainly well worth the price! (The author has to make a buck after all and deserves to but I am hoping that with the release of the book and now after seemingly an upcoming documentary then the complete series of lectures might become more widely available. I for one will be looking out for the movie - congradulations Ronald Wright!) Mattjs 14:33, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
Gosh: glad to see i am the only one taking an interest in this article (means i've got it all to myself). I am going to flesh it out with more details over the next week so please dont bother editing out or reverting any of the current almost "stub" sections. 122.148.173.37 ( talk) 15:59, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Notes to myself and others:
Thank you for your enhancements – but please next time use the key "show preview" until you think it's done and then use "save page". Thus, you do not create a countless number of versions of the article. These versions make it hard for others to check what has been changed and also each version is stored until eternity at the Wikipedia servers, thus wasting memory space. Thank you in advance -- Cyfal ( talk) 19:33, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

I am glad to report that this article nomination for good article status has been promoted. This is how the article, as of December 20, 2010, compares against the six good article criteria:
If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to Good article reassessment. Thank you to all of the editors who worked hard to bring it to this status, and congratulations.— -- Cirt ( talk) 03:44, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
I haven't had a chance to go through the article in detail (and it needs an edit - some of the english expression is a little stunted) but wouldn't the Background section (on the Author) be more approriate where it belongs on his Biography "Ronald Wright" page as it is needless duplication in my opinion. Perhaps it was included by the editor to garnish well written article brownie points rather than in the interests of Wikipedia as a whole. Although a good idea for the sake of a well rounded article in itself this isnt a literary journal and even novice users should be able to navigate back to the "Ronald Wright" page to check it out. My vote is that any bio components in this section should go. 122.148.41.172 ( talk) 122.148.41.172 ( talk)
