  Introduction to how Wikipedia will be used in the course  


Handout: [http://wikiedu.org/editingwikipedia Editing Wikipedia

]

{{assignment|Assignment - Practicing the basics}}

  Practice Assignment

  • Create a Wikipedia account and join this course page.  
  • Complete the introductory training modules. During this training, you will make edits in a sandbox and learn the basic rules of Wikipedia.  
  • Explore topics related to your topic area to get a feel for how Wikipedia is organized. What areas seem to be missing? As you explore, make a mental note of articles that seem like good candidates for improvement.

{{start of course week|2018-03-19}}

{{assignment|Editing basics}}

  During the library workshop we'll discuss:


  • Understanding Wikipedia as a community, we'll discuss its expectations and etiquette.
  • Basics of editing  
  • Anatomy of Wikipedia articles, what makes a good article, how to distinguish between good and bad articles  
  • Collaborating and engaging with the Wiki editing community  
  • Tips on finding the best articles to work on for class assignments

]

{{assignment|Assignment - Exploring the topic area}}

Review Wikipedia articles and think about Wikipedia articles related to your biochemistry labs that are missing or could use improvement.


Here is a list of stub articles to review: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Enzyme_stubs . The article you choose to edit must be related to one of your labs.

{{assignment milestones|Everyone has a Wikipedia account}}

All students have Wikipedia user accounts and are listed on the course page.

{{assignment|Assignment - Add to an article}}

  Practice Assignment

  • Add 1–2 sentences of new information, backed up with a citation to an appropriate source, to a Wikipedia article related to biochemistry.

{{assignment milestones|Using sources}}

  

Be prepared to explain close paraphrasing, plagiarism, and copyright violations on Wikipedia.

{{start of course week|2018-03-26}}

{{assignment|Assignment - Choosing your article}}

  

  • Your instructor has created a list of potential topics for your main project. Choose the one you will work on.  If you would like to work on a different topic, you must get the article approved the instructor.
  • Compile a bibliography of relevant, reliable sources and post it to the talk page of the article you are working on. Begin reading the sources. Make sure to check in on the talk page (or watchlist) to see if anyone has advice on your bibliography.

{{assignment|Assignment - Wikipedia culture and etiquette}}

  

  • If you haven't already, review training about Wikipedia culture and etiquette  and (optionally) sandboxes and how to use them.  
  • Post any questions you have about Wikipedia culture/etiquette and sandboxes to Blackboard.

{{end of course week}}

= Week 10 =

{{start of course week|2018-04-02}}

{{assignment|Assignment - Drafting starter articles}}

  

  • If you are starting a new article, write a 3–4 paragraph summary version of your article—with citations—in your Wikipedia sandbox. If you are improving an existing article, create a detailed outline reflecting your proposed changes, and post this for community feedback, along with a brief description of your plans, on the article’s talk page. Make sure to check back on the talk page often and engage with any responses.  
  • Continue research in preparation for expanding your article.

{{assignment milestones|Students have selected an article to edit and started editing}}

All students have started editing articles or drafts on Wikipedia.


{{end of course week}}

= Week 11 =

{{start of course week|2018-04-09}}

{{assignment milestones|Complete first draft}}

  

  • Expand your article into a complete first draft.

{{assignment milestones|Moving articles to mainspace}}

  

  • You should have made substantial edits to your article. You can move your article out of your sandboxes and into Wikipedia's main space.  
  • A general reminder: Don't panic if your contribution disappears, and don't try to force it back in.  
  • Check to see if there is an explanation of the edit on the article's talk page. If not, (politely) ask why it was removed.  
  • Contact your instructor or Wikipedia Content Expert and let them know.




Handout: [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Moving_out_of_your_sandbox.pdf Moving out of your Sandbox

]

{{assignment|Assignment - Moving articles to mainspace}}

  

  • Move your sandbox articles into main space.  
  • If you are expanding an existing article, copy your edit into the article. If you are making many small edits, save after each edit before you make the next one. Do NOT paste over the entire existing article, or large sections of the existing article.  
  • If you are creating a new article, do NOT copy and paste your text, or there will be no record of your work history. Follow the instructions in the "Moving out of your sandbox" handout.  
  • Begin expanding your article into a comprehensive treatment of the topic.

{{end of course week}}

{{start of course week|2018-04-16}}

{{assignment|Assignment - Continue improving articles}}

 

Do additional research and writing to make further improvements to your article, based on your classmates' suggestions and any additional areas for improvement you can identify.
