Essay Mill Page Discussion edit
Good Article Criteria:
1. Well-written
- General content is vague
- Re-structure the sections so that they are ordered in a logical order
- Each person will have a section they are responsible for
- Relevant terms
Headings,
- Introduction, need to include alternative names for Essay mills (term paper mills, paper mills, etc.) Should mention that essay banks are not the same as essay mills (John)

- Essay Mills Today (Kevin)
- Types of Products (Blake)
- Legal Status (Pat)
- Criticism and Controversy (Erin & Jon)
- Further Reading (Group)
- See Also (Group)
- Formatting and Revising (Group)
2. Verifiable, more sources, testimony from actual term paper mill writers
- Currently there is only one source in the article which is not a credible source
- We plan to add more credible sources, drawing mostly from the papers written by Katy, Pat and Kevin, but there will also be research conducted individually on a by need basis
3. Broad in coverage
- we need to avoid unnecessary inflation, but hit on factual evidence about essay mills
4. Neutral
- The Criticism and Controversy section will be hard to tackle with an NPOV in mind, but we are thinking about trying to provide an equal amount of both sides of the argument in order to not lean heavily on one side.
- We need to be careful with what terms that we add to "See Also" because this could imply that we feel certain topics are more relatable than others. Thus, insinuating that we stand on a particular side of the criticism of this topic.
5. Stable (n/a)
6. Illustrated
- screen shot of a term paper mill website
- graphs, charts/tables included in the established research
