Hello and welcome!

This is my second year using Wikipedia as a project in my ENGL416 (Editing) class at Towson University. During the Spring 2012 semester, students in my class developed stubs of their choice into articles, with an eye toward Wikipedia Feature Article status. Some students created new articles and some developed existing stubs. In addition to the undergraduate writer-editors, a small group of graduate students worked on the project as editorial project managers. Both the 2011 and 2012 Wikipedia projects have been a great learning experience for my students, and a hands-on approach to teaching editing for me.

Please feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about the project.
