Articles List
editBelow are the articles available for this project. You can "claim" an article by adding a link to it (for example, [[Costume]]) next to your name in the "Students" table at the bottom of this page. Please note: this list is not comprehensive. Essentially, my selections are connected, in some way or another, to the topics we are covering in the course (including the four off-campus plays we are seeing this semester). My choices are also informed by WikiProject Theatre, a community of Wikipedians that have identified articles in need of expansion/improvement. Each page is unique and therefore has different needs. For example, some are relatively well-developed but need citations; others are "stubs" (relatively undeveloped); and so on. Be sure to visit the Talk page of each article you are considering in order to get a better sense of what previous editors and contributors believe the article's strengths and weaknesses to be. Finally: anything in red doesn't exist on Wikipedia yet, and therefore needs to be created from scratch.
