Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put  on your userpage.

Assignment
Your assignment is to create and write an article on Raghida Dergham (living person), originally from Lebanon, who currently works in the United States as a journalist. Good luck, Crtew (talk) 15:55, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Raghida Dergham


A tag has been placed on Raghida Dergham requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:21, 17 September 2012 (UTC)

Where's it gone?
It's now at User:Cncarter1/Raghida Dergham. It's best to construct articles in user space. Keeps them safe from patrollers, except in cases of attack, spam or copyright violation. (Don't copy text from outside unless it's clearly licensed CC-BY-SA or so ancient as to be public domain. Just thought I'd mention it. Applies even if you wrote and own the other site or the book.) Good starting point for articles is to gather a collection of references WP:RS. Then write round them. Good luck. Peridon (talk) 16:14, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
 * BTW Don't sign article posts. That's automatically done. Sign talk pages and discussions like AfD. Good advice is to make sure you're signed in when you edit. Too many IP address posts make us suspicious, especially if anything remotely connected to something that might well be the least bit controversial is involved. Feel free to pass this on to your colleagues (or don't if you don't like them...). Peridon (talk) 16:20, 17 September 2012 (UTC)

Peridon has done a good job of moving your content into your user space. In addition, I have merged the sources Peridon mentioned from a previous version to the one on User:Cncarter1/Raghida Dergham. From now on you can go to your user page and click on the blue link for Raghida Dergham to move to your article. On Dergham's page, you'll see a link up top that will allow you to move back to your user page, too. Crtew (talk) 16:20, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

Notability
At this time, write a notability statement. It's good that you're working ahead, but before you get further, let's see why she deserves to be in an encyclopedia. Crtew (talk) 16:27, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

Progress
You should be able to fill out more of the infobox at this point and your notability statement does not capture her importance for inclusion into the encyclopedia yet.

By now you should have taken the Wikipedia tutorial. After you do, begin writing your article.Crtew (talk) 18:52, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation

Wikipedia Education Program: student survey!
Hi! I work with the Wikipedia Education Program, and I'm hoping to get your feedback about your experience this semester!

The survey takes no more than 10 minutes, and I'd really appreciate your response!
