charge of teaching writing. My goals for the class in WP are twofold... one, for them to incorporate themselves at least somewhat into an
English-language speaking environment, and getting interaction with people other than myself. Second is to write for an authentic audience, again someone other than myself. As for specific assignments, Im going to have to create and modify them as we go along, based on what I did a couple of years ago. Since this is a Business English class, they will eventually be writing on business-related topics, profiles of notable businesses, perhaps businesspeople (I will discourage this one because of BLP issues, but not forbid it) and other topics related to their majors such as marketing, international business, finance, accounting, etc. Many of these topics will relate to Mexico as well. They will do a final project at the end of the course, one option will be to write an article in WP. Right now, I have them briefly (7 to 10 sentences)expanding a municipality article. I prefer they work on one of the many 1-3 sentences articles that exist for

Usually "these" are used when writing by hand to portray italicized text. It could be changed to being italic but it isn't a huge issue, I'd usually say discuss with users on the talk page. With reliable sourcing it's a little more difficult. You need stuff from people not connected to the

I was just kidding. Your talk page looked funny with the bad grammar claiming you were an A+ student. I am going into seventh grade and am male and am very smart. I'm a straight guy. Oh and just so you know when you leave comments on talk pages you need to sign your comments with ~~~~.
977:(our non-free content policy). I don't know if you've already done this but if not, please do. Just sort of have them treat it like assigned reading. I'll offer help to your students and act as a sort of mentor. If you wish I can send you an email to show to your students. Cheers,

You're right about the overwhelming bit. You might want to warn them about
British English. Some articles are written entirely in it. It has slight variations from regular (US) English. A lot of editors are from England or Australia and contribute in British English. Cheers,

because the articles have the bare frame and a link to a source for more information. In this way, students can add information without having to learn all the intricacies of citation and page format. We can work on that after they get how to modify pages.

The proper syntax would be "Sites displaying Google ads may not include advocacy against any individual, group, or organization." If the quote continues after quoted portion it would end in an ellipse. Hope I answered your question.
1149:
I see many terms quoted like this in lots of articles and I'm wondering if it could be used as a NPOV weasel technique or should the quotes just be changed and the terms italicized because they are being referred to words as words.
1053:
I think I offered my help. If not than I can edit my posts to make it sound more like it. I guess some of it does sound like "I am mentoring you. You have no choice mwahahahaha!" I'll go around and change it a bit.
