Articles edit

Articles worked in small groups need to be developed collectively in the sandbox of one of the members (group leader) before publishing it into Wikipedia. All participants should contribute individually to the contents with their usernames (all edits are recorded in the page history).

Group sandboxes will be listed above. For a user named "Johndoe22", his sandbox is [[User:Johndoe22/sandbox|]])

Please note: if you want to expand an existing article, please copy first the source (wikitext) of the article into your sandbox, then work on it safely.

Some examples of good articles:


List here the Group Sandboxes: Example: # User:Didatticus/sandbox - Group: --Didatticus (msg) and Marcok (msg)

Activity edit

Complete the table by answering these questions by exploring some tools (page history and page view) in the ‘page history’ of the wikipedia pages of Jalali and Noulifar. Then when we meet we can discuss together the possible structure of the pages (the examples I gave of Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Rajabian I thought might be useful as they are also imprisoned in Iran and their pages are more complete).
