Hi, I think the best way to approach this task is to split the jobs up. I know there isn't a lot on the page at the moment so it should be easy to split tasks up and maintain an balance workload, what do you all think?Willgarman (talk) 15:18, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

I think that's a good idea and I'm happy to work with you. I think we should all use this talk page in order to communicate so all the conversations are in one place and are easy to track. RosieGoundrill (talk) 15:21, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Yes, that's a good idea. How would you like to divide the workload between us? The suggest issues for improvements are: - provides insufficient context - written like a personal reflection - needs additional citations for verification. - too technical - unclear citation style.

Jobs to do

edit

So should we divided as follows: Rosie - context; Will - citations and references; Me - editing the style; and we can rotate the different jobs throughout the 3 weeks Lavender 2302 (talk) 15:35, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Sounds good!Willgarman (talk) 15:37, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

I'm happy with that arrangement and think it will work well. It might be a good idea to post any questions in the Wikipedia Teahouse, if you are not a already a member it would be a good idea to join. Users here are helpful and friendly with any questions you may have. I've also posted on the talk page of the article we are editing asking for any help or suggestions RosieGoundrill (talk) 15:40, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the suggestion, Rosie. That would be very helpful. Also may be Will and I should write on the article talk page and let other users know we are also working on the article. Lavender 2302 (talk) 15:43, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

I think I might research how to reference and stuff on Wikipedia over the weekend, if I find anything of interest I'll post it on here for when we rotate tasks.Willgarman (talk) 15:45, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Afternoon, just thought I'd show you two this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Referencing_for_beginners. I think I know how to reference now, so you should start seeing references popping up soon! :P Willgarman (talk) 13:03, 8 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi guys, thought I'd update you that I've started to look through content to add towards the page and I've also been looking up how to make the article less biased. Once I've gathered all the necessary information I'll start editing. RosieGoundrill (talk) 13:39, 10 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

That's great Rosie, I have also started looking at things to be improved with the article. Has anyone messaged Darren about which session we are going to tomorrow? Just in case I will email him now for the morning one.Lavender 2302 (talk) 14:30, 13 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

As advised by the wikipedians from the teahouse I'm trying to rewrite the lead section at the top in a more concise way. If you want to have a look you can check my sandbox for my progress (I can't figure out how to make a link for it). See you tomorrow! RosieGoundrill (talk) 23:13, 13 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
