Welcome
[edit]Hello, Rgardne, and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are a course instructor leading a class project.
- New to Wikipedia or want to learn about best practices for Wikipedia assignments?
The training includes instructions for setting up a structured course page, with tools for tracking student work and encouraging peer review. Please also see this helpful advice for instructors.
If you run into problems or want some feedback on your Wikipedia assignment plans, try posting to the education noticeboard.
We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay after your assignment is finished! Peaceray (talk) 07:44, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

GMOs
[edit]I see that you have included Genetically modified food as one of the articles for your course. I want to give you a heads-up that all of the GMO pages are subject to some very significant editing restrictions due to the controversial nature of the subject area. Students need to understand those restrictions or they may encounter an unpleasant class experience. Please feel free to ask me any questions about this at User talk:Tryptofish, or ask the WMF person assigned to your course. Nonetheless, welcome to Wikipedia, and I hope that you and your students have a rewarding time. --Tryptofish (talk) 00:11, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
Course assignment Climate change
[edit]I noticed a template on Talk:Climate change indicating that the article is a was the subject of a course assignment. I have some concerns about this but when I looked at the linked page: Wikipedia:Wiki_Ed/Linfield_College/Environment,_Society,_and_Culture_(Spring), I do not see climate change listed. My concerns are similar to those mentioned by Tryptofish in the note above. If the original plan was to include this article and that is no longer the case, perhaps we should remove the note from the talk page. I also note that the course dates appear to be completed so maybe this is a moot issue, but if it never was part of the assignment, I think the template should be removed.--S Philbrick(Talk) 22:41, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
