Usage

This template is designed to walk teachers through the creation of a standardized Wikipedia assignment course page, with step by step instructions for building the course page. To begin, the template should be placed on a new subpage of Wikipedia:Ambassadors/Courses, e.g., Wikipedia:Ambassadors/Courses/Example course.

This template takes the following parameters. Term, at least, should be defined. The others are optional.

  1. term: the year and quarter in which the course begins. For example, a course beginning in September 2011 would have term = 2011 Q3. This parameter is used for categorizing the course page and the student articles that are tagged with the standard assignment banner.
  2. university: the university, college or other educational instution for the class, e.g., Georgetown University
  3. project: the name of a WikiProject focused on topics related to the course, e.g., WikiProject Law

The parameters can be added before or after the course page is fully built.

Example

{{course page
|term = 2011 Q3
|university = Georgetown University
|project = WikiProject Law
}}

Components

The content of the course page is added to subpages, and the creation of each subsequent subpage triggers instructions for starting the next one. The subpages and related instructions include:
