Everyone has begun writing their article drafts.

Now's the time to revisit your text and refine your work. You may do more research and find missing information; rewrite the lead section to represent all major points; reorganize the text to communicate the information better; or add images and other media.
Continue to expand and improve your work, and format your article to match Wikipedia's tone and standards. Remember to contact your Wikipedia Expert at any time if you need further help!
It's the final week to develop your article.
Write a paper going beyond your Wikipedia article to advance your own ideas, arguments, and original research about your topic.
Everyone should have finished all of the work they'll do on Wikipedia, and be ready for grading.
