Greetings...
Hello, Sezekiel, and welcome to Wikipedia!
I'm looking forward to working with your class during the semester - if you have any questions about the project or Wikipedia in general, please feel free to leave me a note at User talk:Awadewit. Wikipedians are here to help you! Awadewit ( talk) 19:38, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi, here are the details of the MRR annotated bibliography assignment...
Good Wikipedia articles are built on a foundation of good sources. In this respect, Wikipedia articles are not much different from academic essays. In fact, if anything a good Wikipedia article is more reliant on good sources than are other academic or scholarly texts. The whole notion of verifiability, which is the first of the encyclopedia's five pillars, depends upon reliable sources.
The aim of this bibliography assignment, then, is to identify, read, and comment on the most important and reliable sources that relate to the topic of your chosen article.
In coordination with your group, you need to do the following:
To coordinate with the other members of your group (whose names you can find here), use their talk pages. Each time that you log in to Wikipedia, you will notice that if you have a message waiting for you, there will be a yellow banner at the top of the page.
Good luck! -- jbmurray ( talk • contribs) 23:11, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Sezekiel, just to say good job on getting going on the bibliography for Leyendas de Guatemala. ( Rekarrr is also clearly on the case.) One word of advice is that you might want to drop notes on other people's talk pages: then they get the little yellow bar to remind them to check their messages. Again, good luck! -- jbmurray ( talk • contribs) 23:10, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
So i started somewhat of a conversation thread on our article's talk page. Let me know what you think. Cheers. -- Rekarrr ( talk) 04:22, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, let's just focus on the written part. As much as I'd love to browse through the endless crap... (i mean useful info?) that whomever linked there for us, I'm pretty sure we don't have time. I'm gonna add the stuff abt magical realism etc, now. -- Rekarrr ( talk) 17:24, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
Hey Dude and Dudettes! I proofred the ENTIRE freakin article, edited, added more info where we needed to fill in holes, added little sections (like see also and related reading or whatever) that the good article criteria requires, added an info box and some photos. I'm thinking lets send her off to good article consideration land? I dont know how to do that but im sure i can wiki it (ha-ha-ha). So edit or add whatever you guys still want, or let me know if youre ok to send it, but in either case if no one replies to me by saturday night im sending it. Sounds like a plan? Let me know what you all think. It looks pretty sweet tho. go team...bot... (btw im gna copy paste to your talk pages for extra awareness purposes) -- Rekarrr ( talk) 05:48, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
