Wikipedia is not for unsupervised homework

edit

Unless your homework assignment is being supervised by an experienced Wikipedia editor, there is a reasonable probability that your contributions will be removed the moment that your class ends. Here are some tips:

  • Do not overwrite mature articles. Make incremental changes or post suggestions on Talk pages.
  • Rely on WP:SECONDARY and WP:TERTIARY sources. Please not insert primary references. They will likely be removed.
  • Remember that Wikipedia is not a textbook, we present knowledge, we dont explain it. WP:NOTTEXTBOOK.

Pass on this advice to your fellow students and to your instructor. --Smokefoot (talk) 01:22, 28 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Inkjet printers

edit

Please see the note I left your classmat: User_talk:Daov94#Feedback. The fact that information is supported by sources doesn't matter if the sources don't make the connections between the information added and the topic at hand (in this case, the environmental impact of inkjet printers).

Also recall this training slide; you are not supposed to engage in edit wars. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 04:34, 4 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
