Students in my Technical Writing (ENGL 303) course

I'm asking my students in ENGL 303 to create Wikipedia pages and to do two brief tasks from the list of open tasks. Sandybaldwin (talk) 18:39, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's now fall 2009, and students in my Technical Writing course are creating articles relating to their disciplines. I think the articles will be excellent!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sandybaldwin (talk • contribs) 2009-09-03 16:12:41

Class work

I am informed by Khyejxxn that you are the instructor of an English class at RIT wherein you are asking your students to create Wikipedia articles about "non-creative artists". If this is true, I urge you to take a look at Wikipedia's guidelines for school and university projects, and consider registering your course through the processes listed there. I am concerned about your course, because I have run across three new articles from this class, and none of them meet the various criteria for inclusion. Writing Wikipedia articles for educational purposes is a great idea, but in the end, all content must meet Wikipedia's standards and guidelines.

@WikiDan61: Thanks for your feedback. I didn't know about the class guidelines page! I do know about the inclusion policies - I guess I need to work harder on getting these articles to conform, though I suspect some of them may never fit the policies. They have two more weeks to do these - can I have them indicate in the Talk page or somewhere that this is work in progress? Or is it better to stay in their Sandbox until they've worked the articles over?? What do you advise?

@WikiDan61: I will go ahead and register the course ...Sandybaldwin (talk) 22:29, 6 October 2015 (UTC) Sandybaldwin (talk) 22:00, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
