Talk:Katharine Smith Reynolds

Getting started
I've set up the page and I'll relist the sourcing I found here, just so it's in one location. I didn't add much to the article, just a bit of framework since I know that this will be part of a class assignment.


 * A news story through WUNC (FM)
 * A book about her and her husband by University of Georgia Press
 * A lengthy mention at the UNC website
 * A book about how she impacted the building of Reynolda by University of Massachusetts Press
 * A chapter in this book by the University of Georgia Press
 * An article at Our State

One big thing to be careful of is that the article remain in encyclopedia format, which is a bit different than writing in a narrative format - it's something that I had a pretty rough time getting used to on here since I was more used to writing personal narratives and academic papers. I've written a bit about that here, so I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here because of space.

The good thing about this being in the draftspace is that since it's not live, we can take our time with this and the students can explore and experiment freely. One thing I can recommend is that they go through one of the training programs, either WP:TRAINING or WP:ADVENTURE. ADVENTURE is interactive and I've been told that it's a bit more fun, so that might be the one you want to go with. Plus it will leave a record of their progress through the training, which could be helpful when it comes to grading and assessment. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  07:02, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh! One other note and another source: Make sure to check with your local museums and archives, since many of them will have access to sourcing (primary or secondary) that could help flesh out the article and potentially help establish notability. I think that Reynolds would pass GNG, but it's always better to try to find as many reliable sources as possible, even if you don't use all of them in the article.
