“ | This is a remarkable project, and a herculean task realized in the short time span of less than 15 weeks. Jon and his students are [a] model for thinking, sharing and contributing with[in] the open space of the internet. An important act of faith and intellectual responsibility. It is ever so impressive. | ” |
— Jim Groom[1] |
“ | Gives students real-world experience finding their way, collaboratively, to high standards of content and writing in their field. It's an incredible example of what college students and their inspired teacher can do, collaborating, reflecting, listening, revising. | ” |
— Barbara Ganley[2] |
“ | Over the course of the last few months I have learned so much about writing I cannot even express... and it shows. I have been a B+/A- student throughout my entire undergraduate career, and my last two papers have been A's! I think the grades speak for themselves. | ” |
— Monica Freudenreich[3] |
“ | I will no longer allow my daughter to consider attending the University of British Columbia, so long as Murray is paid to teach there. | ” |

The University of British Columbia's class SPAN312 ("Murder, Madness, and Mayhem: Latin American Literature in Translation") contributed to Wikipedia during Spring 2008. Our collective goals were to bring a selection of articles on Latin American literature to featured article status (or as near as possible). By project's end, we had contributed three featured articles and eight good articles. None of these articles was a good article at the outset; two did not even exist.
We had the unstinting support of the (in)famous FA-Team, who took this on as their first mission. We were also fortunate to have the support of members of Wikiproject Novels. The collaboration of other interested Wikipedia editors was of course very much appreciated. We would like to thank everyone for their hard work and incredible generosity.
Feel free to discuss this project. With the FA-Team, we are also now embarking on an analysis and post-mortem. You may also want to look at the following essay:
- "Was Introducing Wikipedia to the Classroom an Act of Madness Leading Only to Mayhem if not Murder?". An essay by jbmurray.
Goals
[edit]- To improve Wikipedia's coverage of selected articles on Latin American literature, particularly those related to dictator novels.
- Done Eight new good articles and one new B-class article.
- To submit these articles to Wikipedia review processes, such as peer review, good article nominations and featured article candidates.
- Done
- To increase the number of featured articles in this area.
- Done Three new featured articles.
News
