Things to work on for your Week 9 continued edits:

  • Sandbox: You are supposed to have a sandbox that has the title of the article you are editing in the URL. You should move all of your edits thus far and moving forward to that sandbox with the proper URL/title: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SingingSinatra4/Internet_celebrity
  • Evaluate an article: Go back to your article evaluation and pull out the list of things you said you could improve on the existing article. Put that list in the talk page for the Sandbox that includes all of your edits and cross things off as you do them (you can also edit what I have said on this talk page and cross things off as you complete them).
  • Copyedits: When you move those to the new sandbox, publish each with explicit notes on what you changed from the original Wikipedia article. That way when you migrate your work to live Wikipedia you will be able to publish and explain each change as you go. Doing so is a required part of the Week 13 Wikipedia assignment.
  • Bibliography: This is a good start for a bibliography, but you should starting summarizing this work and possibly finding more to build out your contributions to the existing Wikipedia article. There is for instance a call out for "citation needed" in the existing article, are there some you could add there?
  • Citing sources: Again, start adding more to your sandbox, but make sure it is clear where in the live Wikipedia page your edits will go.
  • Adding media/hyperlinks: You did not add the hyperlinks required in Week 8, but you should go through and see if there are things that should be hyperlinks in whatever you add and the existing article (and that you indicate what links to add, not just that you added a Wiki link). The image you added is fine, but be sure before you add media to the live Wikipedia article that it is actually necessary or contributes to the article (that is, you had to do it for this assignment, but in your final Wikipedia contributions don't add it just to add it).
  • Overall: You seem to be doing things week by week, but now you really need to focus on the bigger picture of what you plan to add/edit here. Is there more in the existing article that needs copyediting? More citations you can use to expand on the sections you are working on? The more planning you can do now the easier it will be for you to chip away at those edits between now and November 22 when you need to move your final edits to live Wikipedia.
