Wikipedia part III is due tomorrow, see http://www.cdf.toronto.edu/~heap/104/W13/Wikipedia/wikipedia.pdf Your submission will contain your Wikipedia userid and (optionally) any explanation your TA needs (e.g. you had to change articles). We will verify that you are registered as a wikipedia user at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/ Here is the marking scheme: 1. Made a contribution to Wikipedia content 3 marks Be generous, since even small changes that meet Wikipedia guidelines require time. As a rough guide, an extensive revision of an article (merging, splitting, rewriting a paragraph or more) is sufficient work. Fixing format, grammar, or spelling on 3 (or so) articles is sufficient. Original illustrations are equivalent to original prose, and finding illustrations along with their copyright status is non-trivial work --- half-a-dozen of these is probably enough work. To reiterate: the fact that a student's contribution was deleted is not held against them. There are plenty of polemics on Wikipedia. 2. Engaged the Wikipedia community 2 marks A serious attempt to engage the Wikipedia community or else a good explanation of why this wasn't possible. -- Danny Heap BA4270 416-978-5899 heap@cs.utoronto.ca http://www.cs.utoronto.ca/~heap
