Your articles[edit]

French Resistance -- this is huge. I think it might be too much to wade through. The task of handling such an article can be complicated, especially with an article like this. So let's skip
Young Paris -- is a WP:BLP which has its own challenges. The issue here is that you'd have to do some research to get this fully fleshed out into a good musician article and this is not what we're trying to focus on here.
Peter Sie -- this one is currently nominated for deletion, so we'll need to avoid.
Ivory (soap)-- I'm not thrilled about this one but it might work. There's a decent amount of content here and some work could be done but these kinds of product articles present some difficulties.
Open Wonderland -- This may be a good one. Has clear WP:PROMO issues. Given that it's not very active, you might be fine coming in and working on it. My concern is that there aren't many sources here. If you start hacking at it, this will be an issue as people really will want you to find sources for these things. The problem is that it is now a largely defunct programming API. So is there still sufficient interest? Has it now fully become a historical object? -- this can be a difficult thing to handle.

Ok, so some difficult ones here. I'm not thrilled about any of them, so you might want to hold off and see what's left on Monday. Article selection is crucial for the success of this project. If you do want to do the Wonderland or Ivory ones, we should pair it with something with a clearer task from the leftovers from things other students found.
