Do

Wikipedia Training: Evaluating Articles and Sources and How to Edit. Evaluate the entry for Norris Church Mailer. Can you make a small correction/addition or two? Find another source to add?

Go through Wikipedia’s Referencing Tutorial and begin research on “Graffiti” by finding five reliable sources.

Write

Start editing The Faith of Graffiti by adding to the bibliography the solid sources you discovered in your research. Be sure to use the correct citation template for each entry you make: book, journal essay, newspaper reviews, magazine reviews and interviews, and web sources.[1] Use the sources I already added as models. Additionally add to Graffiti’s talk page: what do you plan to do next to help with the article? Make an addition.

Note

  1. We will use a bibliography-shortened footnotes approach in our Graffiti article. See shortened footnotes for an explanation and our example article The White Negro for their application.
