To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Do you need help?

Arichardso, There's nothing on your user page. There are two reasons why some students' have not been able to create their user page. They are not clicking on create and then saving. Saving your work is crucial. The other thing is that a few students have been writing in their sandbox. Crtew (talk) 21:52, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

Assignment

Arichardso, You're assigned Dona St. Plite of Florida. I can't believe there is not a Wikipedia article already about him, but it's true. Good luck, Crtew (talk) 03:00, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

Progress at this point

By now you should have ...

1. Moved the material on your user page under the "Adopt a Journalist" section to your user account. Copy that material, click on the red link on your user page, and paste the material on that page!

2. Run your reflinks tool in the banner (by right clicking and creating a new tab). It might take a minute to complete the operation -- be patient. You will copy over the results from the tool tab you create to replace the existing ref tags in your article.

3. Taken the Wikipedia tutorial. After you do, begin writing your article.

Hello, Arichardso. Please check your email; you've got mail!
It may take a few minutes from the time the email is sent for it to show up in your inbox. You can at any time by removing the {{You've got mail}} or {{ygm}} template.

"nlhazemi peer review"

1. You are doing really well on the start of your Wikipedia page. I think you did a great job on your info box. You included a lot of important information on your journalist Dona St. Plite. You included all of the basic information that was needed; when he was born, when he died, cause of death, nationality, citizenship and other important factors.

2. You have all of the basic information down but you need to get more in depth. You need more information on your journalist. You need more on his personal life how he grew up, more information about his family, and what he was like. You also need to include information about his career and where he started, and how he got to where he was before he was killed. You did a good job on the section about his death and included a lot of good information.

"Mewest Peer Review"

1. I like the information you have so far. You have depth of not only the person, but the background in which they come from. It was an easy read and I like the narrative aspect of it thus far. I like the questions added in the "Context" section. They were attention-getters and could lead to a detailed and interesting explaination. Keep up the creativity and good work!

2. Some questions I asked myself when reading are as follows (in order of text): During which 3 years were the 3 journalists, including your person, killed? What did he support about the ousted president that led to his death? I'd like to know more detail about his career. How long did he work for WKAT? How was he assasinated? Do they know who is responsible for his death? Add info to his death/impact of his death. The questions in "Context" caught my attention. They are good questions, but I would've liked to see the answers.
