Sandbox
I am concerned that this course seems to be planning to move sandbox edits into mainspace without previously running the planned edits by the article talk page. I don't see any mention of earlier engaging article talk to make sure students understand article structure and proper sourcing, and I've already had indications that students from this course do not. Please add links to sandboxes first on article talk so that experienced editors can provide guidance and feedback. Sandy Georgia (Talk) 20:12, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Copyvio
,, Could you all please review WP:COPYVIO, WP:PLAGIARISM, and WP:PARAPHRASE with this course, and explain to students the importance of rephrasing text in their own words. I've removed several instances today of text directly cut-and-pasted from the sources (which were not always reliable sources, and which were not always text added according to WP:MEDMOS).

MEDRS and talk page usage
I remain concerned about the level of instruction regarding medical sourcing, and instruction about how to use talk pages. See this summary, which might be helpful for all students in this class. Is anyone involved with this class actually following this talk page? Sandy Georgia (Talk) 18:23, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Sandy, yes, I'm following it. Please trust that we are discussing everything you've brought up. Thanks for all the feedback you've been providing. ScottPKingPhD (talk) 18:34, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know :) As has happened so often in the past, I was afraid I was typing for naught and talking to a void!  Best regards, Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 18:50, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
