This assignment spans Week 3 to Week 6 of the Writing Wikipedia Articles course.
Line 27 ⟶ 25:
* 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>
==
If you choose to write a brand new article, we advise that you begin working in your sandbox ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WMuXQgcwV4 instructional video]), and seek a little feedback from other students and/or course instructors prior to moving the article to its permanent home on Wikipedia.
For those working on a new article or a stub, the [[WP:DYK|Did You Know]] (DYK) process may be a helpful guide, and a way to seek feedback from other Wikipedians. Let us know on the [[WT:WIKISOO|course talk page]] if you need some guidance getting started with DYK!
We expect that most students will be aiming for C or B class in their projects. In most cases, finding good sources and using them to add material to the article will be your primary task.
In some cases, there may be disagreements -- or potential disagreements -- to work through, in order to establish a [[WP:NPOV|neutral point of view]] appropriately reflects varying perspectives and beliefs. Whenever this is likely to be an issue, be sure to use the article's talk page to seek out input and talk through the relevant issues. Feel free to seek out advice from your classmates and instructors if this comes up, but be mindful that [[WP:CANVASS|canvassing]] -- that is, explicitly seeking out people to support your position and overrule those who disagree with you -- is to be avoided. When you seek input into a disagreement, try to use neutral language, and don't exclusively seek out people on one side or the other.
