Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/Everett Community College/English Composition 3740 (Winter)

Week 1

 * Create an account and join this course using the link I posted on Canvas.
 * Read the short article, &quot;Evaluating Wikipedia.&quot;
 * Complete the two training modules below.
 * Next, using the &quot;edit&quot; or &quot;edit source&quot; button on your userspace, write a 100-word bio to introduce yourself to other wikipedians. Remember, this can be read by anyone, anywhere in the world, who visits your page.

Week 2
This short training module will prepare you for the longer assignment that follows.

This is one of the three major assignments for this class, and its requirements are listed on my website here.

Week 3
Familiarize yourself with editing Wikipedia by adding a citation to an article. There are two ways you can do this:


 * Add 1-2 new sentences to an article and cite that statement to a reliable source, as you learned in the online training.
 * The Citation Hunt tool shows unreferenced statements from articles. First, evaluate whether the statement in question is true! An uncited statement could just be lacking a reference or it could be inaccurate or misleading. Reliable sources on the subject will help you choose whether to add it or correct the statement.
