User talk:Vxwei/sandbox

Vxwei all great choices, my advice is to steer clear of something as broad as 'Germanic mythology' because that could be very overwhelming. Nu Kwa is an excellent option since we covered her in this course and you have a solid foundation to start on. Let me know if you need help narrowing it down!

 * Vxwei so which article did you settle on? Make sure you assign it to yourself in the Dashboard in order to complete the "Finalize your Topic" exercise. I see you completed the "Add a Citation" Exercise in your sandbox, which article was that for? Gardneca (talk) 02:40, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
 * User:Gardneca I think I'm settling on Nüwa! She'll be the easiest for me to add noteworthy information on. I assigned it to myself, and as for the citation I added to the main sandbox here, it was just a random article I found on the UH library's database. I still hadn't chosen which one to edit, and wanted to practice citing anyway, so I think it was some archaeology peer-reviewed article I quoted (irrelevant to any of the other articles). I plan to start adding some notes on sources to a Nüwa sandbox page separate from this tonight. Is it okay for me to have the direct quote from the article in my sandbox, since it's technically still able to be seen by others? Would that still count as plagiarism (especially since this week's lesson was over plagiarism)?? Vxwei (talk) 04:53, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Vxwei Great choice! You can definitely have the direct quote in your sandbox, since these are generally understood to be workspaces and not Wikipedia main spaces. Just remember that if it is a direct quote (word for word) then it needs to be within quotation marks. Gardneca (talk) 06:03, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
