Week 3
As a group, we will be drafting a new article about chemical game theory. This week, we should begin to outline our article. What is each of us going to be responsible for drafting to grow our article? Once we have our section assigned, each of us should find at least one source for supporting our work. Use your Wikipedia sandbox to start outlining your section and your sources.

You probably have some feedback from other students and possibly other Wikipedians. Consider their suggestions, decide whether it makes your work more accurate and complete, and edit your draft to make those changes.

Now's the time to revisit your text and refine your work. You may do more research and find missing information; rewrite the lead section to represent all major points; reorganize the text to communicate the information better; or add images and other media.

It's the final week to develop your article.
