This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Jamaolo (talk | contribs) at 16:39, 10 October 2011 (Articles suggested by course students). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This page contains Wikipedia articles suggested for editing for Assignment 2. The first section contains those that have been suggested by course instructors. The second section lists articles proposed by students. While those articles in the first section are all suitable for editing, those in the section need to be OK'd by a course instructor first.

Indicate that you plan to edit an article by putting your Wikipedia name, as well as links to your talk and contributions page, immediately below the article, and indented. Also, if you are comfortable doing so, you can add your real name to the right. If you would rather not reveal your real name on this public page, please use the protected area on Blackboard for doing so.

Articles suggested by course students

The following Wikipedia articles have been suggested by students. Any of these marked with an OK are suitable editing. To propose an existing WP that you wish to edit, include the name as a WP link at the bottom of the list below, and in the Discussion page create a new section with the article name where you explain your rationale in terms of course fit. Any article that has a connection to the course is fair game. The article itself doesn't have to be a course specific topic, as long as your proposed edits have a relation to the course material, broadly interpreted.
