Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. There's a discussion of a series of articles which were recently created on Australian OH&S legislation at Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board#New articles on the handling of dangerous materials. Do these articles form part of your university project or class? I think that there's a misunderstanding of the purpose of Wikipedia which your lecturer needs to be aware of, as most of these articles are probably going to be either merged into other articles or deleted as they don't meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria (Wikipedia:Notability) and they're structured as explanations of guidelines and legislation rather than encyclopedia articles. Could you please comment at Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board#New articles on the handling of dangerous materials? You should also refer your lecturer to Wikipedia:School and university projects for their guidance and they are very welcome to also join the discussion. I hope that this isn't too unfriendly an introduction to Wikipedia - we try to welcome new editors, but we also have inclusion guidelines which I don't think that this series of articles meets.
