Welcome
Hello, Dcesaire and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students.

If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text:  on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Kiteinthewind  Leave a message! 17:51, 7 October 2017 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello, Dcesaire, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:12, 9 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Have you talked to your instructor about the types of articles you're supposed to be working on? Although it's aimed at instructors, you might find the Finding Articles training module helpful. Also, please note that is the Wikipedia expert assigned to your class. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:13, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm not entirely sure what you're supposed to be editing on, however it looks like several people are editing or creating pop culture related articles. Something I can recommend is that you work on an article for the screen adaptation of The Ritual, a horror novel that was recently turned into a movie. For something like this you can use movie reviews like this and this, as well as the score at Rotten Tomatoes. We have a brochure that goes over what you would need for a film article and since I'm familiar with both writing film articles as well as with the book itself (I created the article for the book), I can easily provide assistance on this.
