From WP:MESO/About talkpageWP:MESO V1.0Structure, presentation and content of WP:MESO has been completely overhauled, and a proposed new 'portal-type' structure of linked pages and subpages implemented.

As a first assignment, I've asked students in the class to create or edit Wikipedia entries on topics pertaining to Maya studies. The first step of this assignment is for them to identify missing or deficient entries that would benefit from the contribution of a minimum of 1000 words, accompanied by appropriate footnotes and references. Having identified topics, they must add at least 1000 original words (with appropriate citations) to new or existing (but deficient) entries. Topics must receive prior approval from me and contributions will be reviewed by me on the basis of style, accuracy, and utility before they go online. I have directed students to consult the WikiProject Mesoamerica pages for entries that need work, but I'm sure that they would appreciate input and recommendations concerning appropriate strategies. There are 25 students in the class. The final assignments are due on September 22, 2008 and contents should be online by the end of that month. Hoopes (talk) 21:24, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
