Wikipedia Stub
First, begin with an explanation of the stub you are editing and why you choose it. Provide a description of why this is interesting to you and why you believe the stub needs to be expanded. Why would anyone care about this content when there is so much information/content out there to access? Then discuss who would be interested in reading the article and why? What is the importance of it?
Next explain what changes you made and why the changes you made improve the stub. Make sure to explain what content you linked to and why this is important. Do you believe you created enough content to remove the stub status? Why? What did you leave out of your content and why? Consider using elements from previous units in this class and the textbook to strengthen your discussion. You will want to include an image of your user contributions page.
Then remember from the Media Skills video there are four things to look out for in content, they are Relevance, Accuracy, Bias and Reliability. Address and evaluate how each of these relate to the content you created.
In conclusion bring the project together. Explain why content creation is important amd the value that you continued through expanding this stub. Remember this video must be between 3-4 minutes. Please also consult the rubric for specific point allocation.
