Draft:Raspberry Pi 3 Volumio
Hi, welcome to Wikipedia! It looks like this draft you uploaded is a copy of a school assignment. Is that about right? &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 06:20, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

Yes, it is for a project. I make the labs for this project myself. Still learning how to post properly on wikipedia. Vladimirfedun (talk) 06:28, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Hmm, Wikipedia's not really the right place for you to host that kind of thing. We exist to build an encyclopedia, not as an upload location for documents like school projects and labs. What are you looking to do with that draft? &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 06:32, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

Well to make it available for someone else that would like to do a similar project. And its also part of the assignment to post it on wiki and so that the teacher can grade it from here when we give him the link. Vladimirfedun (talk) 06:36, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Ok, unfortunately your teacher is basically asking your class to use us as a webhost, which we are not. We exist to build an encyclopedia: that means we write articles that summarize and explain topics. We don't write instructions for projects or labs, and we can't be expected to host these things for a class. If you want a more detailed explanation of our purpose please check out the introduction to what Wikipedia is. And conversely, please see this guideline about things we are not. I'm going to make a post on our Education Noticeboard advising our education liaison people to try to get a hold of your professor about this. When you speak to your professor next, can you please refer them to that noticeboard and ask them to check in there? It's really not okay for him or her to be making posting to Wikipedia part of a class assignment without having checked in with our education advisors. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 06:50, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

I will let him know about this and show him your message. thanks. Vladimirfedun (talk) 06:52, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi Vladimirfedun,

There are many resources available to help students and instructors contribute to Wikipedia. Could you tell me the name of your professor and the school so we can try to put him in touch with someone who can help? --Ryan (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:20, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
