1) Find an article that does not seem notable. For example, a list of articles with unclear notability related to Korea is here: https://tinyurl.com/NotabilityKorea and for China, see https://tinyurl.com/NotabilityChina

2) Carry out the steps explained here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:BEFORE . If you think the topic is notable (important), make a comment on the article’s talk page explaining why you think so and show it to me.

3) If you think the article is not notable, start a deletion discussion as explained here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:AFDHOWTO . I recommend enabling the Twinkle gadget to make it easier. Show me your deletion proposal before publishing it.

Today we will learn how to write a good lead (intro/abstract) section for an article.

Assignment 2:

One of the most important lessons from this class is understanding the concepts of source reliability. Find one or more unreliable sources on Wikipedia and replace it with a more reliable source. Explain on the talk page why you removed a source and why the new source added is better (or you can explain why that source is reliable). Links: articles with unreliable tinyurl.com/WikiUnrel Once you open an article, CTRL+F for “unrel”.

Refer to discussions of reliability of sources found at 1) Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources and 2) Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard You can find those pages using shortcuts WP:RSP and WP:RSN
