== Choosing an article ==
You may choose any article on Wikipedia to improve (unless it is already a Featured Article, of course!) You may also choose to create a brand new article. Several considerations may go into your decision. The following concepts may be helpful as you decide:
* Many of our students have an interest or background in [[open educational resources]]. We especially encourage you to choose an article from this list of related articles: [[WP:Communicate OER Content]]
=== Considerations relating to each quality rating ===
* New article or [[WP:STUB|stub]]: If you are starting a brand new article, or expanding a "stub" (generally speaking, an article that is only a few sentences long), your goal is to bring it to "Start" class.
=== How to claim your article ===
Once you have chosen your article, add it next to your name on our [[Education Program:Peer to Peer University/Writing Wikipedia Articles (2013 Q2) |main course page]].<ref>If you don't see your name in the list, don't panic -- just go through the formal enrollment process by [[Special:Enroll/Peer_to_Peer_University/Writing_Wikipedia_Articles_(2013_Q2)|clicking here]] and entering the token "WIKISOO".)</ref>
* Next to your name, there will be a box that says "Add an article." Type in the title of your article, taking care to enter it exactly as it appears on Wikipedia.<ref>A few of you have chosen to work on articles on other language editions of Wikipedia. You won't be able to formally add your article in this way, but don't worry about it. This simply means it will be a little harder for us to see your work, so it will be a little more important for you to proactively seek out input and feedback on our course talk page.</ref>
