* '''Assemble''' and '''copy-edit'''. As the referenced research is added to an article, we need to ensure that it does not become baggy and disorganized, though there will be moments when it is obviously in a transitional stage.
* '''Informal Reviews'''. By Saturday, June 5, each of your members should look at an article being developed by others, review it on that article's talk page, and write a summary for your own group (on your own article's talk page) saying whether anything that group has done is valuable for you. You should try to review different articles if possible. '''Finishing this assignment on time is worth 5% of the course grade.'''
* As yet another extra credit 5P (!) activity, by Monday, May 31, you can nominate your article for [[Wikipedia:Did you know]]. All group members who were involved with significantly improving the article up to this point will receive 5P each IF the article is approved by the Did You Know reviewer. You are more then welcome to see me during the office hours to talk about how to get your article passed for the Did You Know. Getting an article to appear on the front page is ''cool'', and it has been done many times by [[Wikipedia:Ambassadors/Courses/Trophy case 2011|your peers]]. Why not give it a try?
* '''''[[Wikipedia:GAN|Good article nomination]]'''''. By Monday, June 7, at the latest as there's a backlog of articles to be reviewed, and because a nomination can easily be put on hold until the article is improved in line with a reviewer's suggestions.
:*'''''This means your article should be mostly finished by then! But it doesn't mean your work is done, FAR FROM IT! You are responsible for keeping daily track of comments by reviewers (which will include the instructor), answering them and addressing them (if they are reasonable, when in doubt, ask the instructor).''''' Here are some sample Good Article reviews and related discussions: [[Talk:United States Senate Select Committee on Improper Activities in Labor and Management/GA1|example1]], [[Talk:Mount Kenya/GA1|example2]], [[Talk:Gaza/GA1|exampe3]]. '''Finishing this assignment on time AND subsequent interaction with Good Article reviewer is worth 5% of the course grade.'''
