Could someone help out here by converting the external links into internal links? --Larry Sanger 14:39, 22 February 2008 (CST)

Start an Eduzendium article

This may be very useful, since it

  • Automates article creation
  • Automates placement of {{EZtalk}}, {{EZarticle-closed}}, and Category:Eduzendium. Because the latter or the equivalent is not atop all class articles, a few have already been collaboratively edited. I myself have made this error because the article lacked notice
  • Prevents accidental deletion. One of this class's articles was inadvertently deleted because it lacked notice; luckily, I saw it in the deletion log and undeleted it
  • Guides about CZ's article naming conventions. Several articles have had to be renamed, lacking this

I've tested it and it works - you can just click the buttons, below, to see what it does.

If there is interest it can be placed on the course homepage or on a subpage.

The below could be customized in seconds to use {{EZarticle}} for EZ articles that allow collaborative editing.

STEP 1. Add your article name where it says "Article name" (leave the /Talk part alone)
Example naming conventions:
  • Human evolution (use this naming convention for a topic article)
  • Charles Lyell (use this naming convention for a biography article)
  • Origin of Species (use this naming convention for an article about a book)

Now click the button "Prep your article!" then follow the directions that will appear (all you'll have to do is click "Save page" and return here).

STEP 2 - Add just the article name where it says "Article name" and click "Start your article!" (Make sure you type it exactly as you did before)
