See Ecological immunology and traditional adaptation (which I draftified but was then unilaterally undraftified and also recreated as a duplicate at Ecological Immunology and Traditional Adaptation) and Draft:Syndemics and Health Hazards in Informal E-waste Economies. This is Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/Washington State University/Evolutionary medicine (Spring) (pinging @Ian (Wiki Ed)). These articles appear more like essays and are on topics that seem very unlikely to make good stand-alone articles (at most, a shorter version may be appropriate as part of a related article). Can you help work with these students to figure out what's going on here? Jay8g [V•T•E] 20:13, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

:I agree with you on these, I was thinking the same thing. I need to dig more into the literature here to figure out what might a viable topic (either as a stand-alone article, or as a target to merge some of the content). Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:12, 7 May 2025 (UTC)

::Another class, same problem but even more of a narrow topic. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Effects of Climate Change on Homeless Populations in Omaha, NE. Jay8g [V•T•E] 04:22, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

Neutral point of view is one of the bedrock principles of Wikipedia. Are educators in Wiki-Ed projects allowed to break that principle? In this Wiki-Ed project, the instructor describes 11 "Wicked" problems that will be addressed in the Wiki-class. The list includes "1) Democratic government 2) Settler-colonialism and Truth, Reconciliation and Decolonization". Characterising democratic government, and truth and reconciliation as "wicked" hardly seems NPOV to me. Can the instructor ignore NPOV on a wikipedia page? Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 02:39, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

:Which course is this? The instructor probably means Wicked problem: {{tq|In planning and policy, a wicked problem is a problem that is difficult or impossible to solve because of incomplete, contradictory, and changing requirements that are often difficult to recognize.}} Not an NPOV issue at all.

File:Symbol watching blue lashes high contrast.svg You are invited to join the discussion at Talk:Visual Culture of the Nation of Islam § Requested move 8 May 2025. Thanks, Bobby Cohn 🍁 (talk) 16:59, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

:I have identified the issue with the instructor, but it would also be nice if additional instruction could be given on MOS:AT as well as {{tl|essay-like}} without having to hound all the pages listed in the RM. This course in particular may benefit from having articles reviewed at AfC in the future. Bobby Cohn 🍁 (talk) 16:59, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

::Quickly to clarify that I'm referring to Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/Oberlin College/Modern and Contemporary Islamic Art (Spring 2025), as none of the talk pages identify it as such. Bobby Cohn 🍁 (talk) 17:01, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

Hello. Shelterbelt destruction at Yangguan Forest Farm is a new translation from Chinese by an unregistered university student. The article needs work for organizational structure, better/more citations, and more. Knowledge of Chinese would be a help, but plenty of room for improvement without it.

:@Mathglot @SCP-2000 Yes, that's one of mine. For my feedback on that article see my talkpage and/or archives (User_talk:Hanyangprofessor2#Deadline_5_(Week_9)-_ZHANG_XIAOTONG). Btw, what do you mean by "an unregistered university student"? That student is registered in https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Hanyang_University/Sociology_of_Everyday_Life_(2025)/students/overview _{Piotrus at Hanyang| reply here} 04:08, 26 May 2025 (UTC)

Template:End of course week leaves an unclosed {{tag|div|o}}, which is causing a plethora of missing end tag lint errors. Please discuss at Template talk:End of course week#Template leaves trailing <div>, no need to discuss it here also. —Anomalocaris (talk) 19:13, 30 May 2025 (UTC)
