Research Paper Proposal

My research paper/website is going to be on the topic of weather.  I will explain how clouds form, what different kinds of clouds are, claim that clouds are all around us not just in new jersey. I will also show many pictures, all of them being what I took.  I will make this assignment more creative by adding all pictures that I took of clouds.

I will use some books and weather related websites. I will show one picture that I did not take which will be a chart of the clouds and where they are in the atmosphere.

Surfers & seekers

http://www.privatetheseries.com/

On this website you can buy the book series "the private series" on it.  You can also buy fan things on it. My friend introduced me to this website because she got me interested in this series. This could be a surfer type website because it is accessible to everyone and it could be of interest to everyone.

Reflection on the Wikipedia Entry

I decided to edit something I know a little bit of information about.  I added various restaurants to the Morris Plains Wikipedia Website. I thought anybody who looked at the Morris Plains Wikipedia site would like to know some restaurants in the area, if they are planning to visit there, live there, or just to drive through.  The first time I edited my post was on Feb 14^th, it got taken down on Feb 14^th. I posted again on Feb 16^th; I tried to post a revised version of the restaurants.  I had that edit taken down on February 17^th.

I felt that my post would stay up because it is useful for people who would like to know the names of some of the restaurants in Morris Plains, New Jersey.  The first time I posted my entry on February 14^th, I added some of what the restaurants served and a phone number for each one as well as a website.  On Feb 16th I checked the website to see if my post was still up and it was not.  I checked the history of the page and the person deleted my post because of advertising and linkspam.  On Feb 16th, I tried posting for the second time, I did not include phone numbers and what the restaurant serve.  I just had what the name of the restaurant is, where it is located, restaurant hours, and a website.  On February 17^th, the Wikipedia volunteers took down my edit because they considered it Restaurant Advertising.

The overall experience I felt was a good and bad.  I felt it was good because I learned how to edit a page.  The bad part of the experience was that a Wikipedia volunteer kept taking down my information because of advertising.  I realized why we had to do this assignment, if we did enough research; our post would be factual enough not to be taken down.  Although, I did a lot of research, my post was taken down.  So, I thought about this assignment more.  I came to my final conclusion of why we were asked to do this assignment.  Everything on Wikipedia is not fake, it may seem that way because of the wording.  The Wikipedia volunteers taking down my edits made me think, if there was fake information, they would take it down.  So Wikipedia is not necessarily a great source to get information, but it is not the worst either.   It all depends on who see’s and edits the post and what they think is necessary or not.

I could have chosen a different topic to do.  Like more information about a school district, or maybe a food Wikipedia entry.  I could have also named all of the restaurants in Morris Plains New Jersey, so the Wikipedia volunteers do not think I am bias.  I could have instead of putting a couple restaurants down, I could have posted or made a page about a specific restaurant in Morris Plains or I could have made my own post about a cupcake place down the road from me.

My plan of action would be to try my best to not be too bias and put up only a few restaurants.  I would do more research than I previously did.  I would also try to name all the restaurants in Morris Plains, well the ones that are open and ready for business.  I would try to not make it too long or too short. My final plan of action is to review what I have done and try to edit it the best I can so it does not look bias. 

Text is....

I feel this youtube clip is so true.  I feel that text is not just writing on paper, or texting on a phone. This video is a good indication of what we grew up with and what our kids will grow up doing. Adding links, posting on blogs, editing websites, posting pictures, updating locations, video chatting and so much more.  Website are now interactive.  You can type anything into Google and it will find it for you.  We will organize all of this data the way we want it organized. The world wide web is bring everybody together with just one click.

Proposal

Morris Plains Wikipedia site

This is the link I will be adding to.  I will be adding various restaurants to the site.  I will add factual information to the site.  As well putting information on the site including, where it is located, what the phone number is for the place, I will also be posting a little bit of information about each of the places as well as website to the home page for that restaurant.

Each restaurant will have its own mini paragraph.  They will also have a link in each mini paragraph. I will source each restaurant at the bottom of the Wikipedia article. There will be a total of 8 restaurants in all unless I decide to cut some of them.  I will have more than 5.

Feb 3rd- Exploratory Writing for Wikipedia Entry

When I was thinking about this assignment, I was wondering which wiki page I should add to. I searched for things I knew about and I finally found a wiki site to add to. I would like to add various restaurants to the Morris Plains NJ wiki site.

There are no names of restaurants for Morris Plains. I am interesting in going to different restaurants and trying out different foods from each restaurant. I like to go to restaurants because it is fun, you can hang out and most importantly.... you don't have to cook!!!
