With respect to Malachi, I've trimmed the "talented" bit, because WikiFur is not meant to give an opinion "speaking as itself", only give attributed quotes showing the opinions of specific individuals. So, for example, you could say "Her friend X says she is 'the best artist in the world'", but not just state "she is talented".

Of course, the above sounds a little fawning, which is why most of the time we just let people's work speak for itself. "Show, don't tell" is the best method. For example, nowhere in Charles P. A. Melville does it tell us that he is a great writer. Instead, it shows us the extent of his activities and the awards that he achieved for them. This is generally a a much better approach. :-) --GreenReaper(talk) 05:08, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
