==update==
I have removed the friday update requirement and asked vWorker to remove any penalties related to this. However, I would like to know how the work is progressing. I would really prefer that you work on site as I could be sure that I'm helping you with any problems you are having. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]

==Editing==
While we are here to help you with editing, please have a keen eye for spelling and grammar, as you're making a number of mistakes. Please continue to write and upload content, and in the next few days I will edit your material so that you can then use those new examples to guide you through the rest of the articles. I hope you understand that I had been pushing you to work on site so we could start this back and forth process sooner, given that it makes both of our work easier.
Glad to see you on the site, and hear you are well. Wishing you a safe and speedy recovery,
[[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
Hello there
Many thanks for your message, i will continue to upload content on here for you. I will upload all work on here and ensure that the under construciton notice is on all Wikis. Therefore once i have uploaded all content i will then begin to edit it for you. I respect all feedback you provide me with and i will seek to work to your satisfaction.
Kind Regards
Steven
P.S i am just trying to upload content so it is on the site and then will begin the edit, as the final process. If that is ok with you?
Yes, That is fine. Still, I will edit some of your articles to show you exactly what we're looking for and walk you through the changes that need to be made. This will help you write and research the rest of the content. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
==NOTE==
I have edited you ICANN article 2. One of biggest issues is the lack of references, I am looking now and it seems I may not have explained how to reference. Referencing needs to happen after every substantial section of the article, and should be used whenever you have taken information from another source (not copying and pasting, we don't copy and paste). It is done like this:
ICANN 2 was held in Berlin, Germany.<nowiki><ref>[www.PUT_LINK_HERE.com Make Space and Explain Link]</ref></nowiki>
SO first you have the ref brackets, then you have the link, and after the link make one space and explain what the link is, if it is icann.org/meetings, just write that out again in short form (i.e., leave off the www. and all the extra code at the end, just explain the link simply)
Please implement these in all of your articles. We usually do not do many external links, and it seems you may have been using those instead of references. I'm sorry I didn't address this earlier.
Other issues:
- No need to explain what ICANN is, that is what the ICANN page is for, this is just for the meeting
- Do not explain or talk about what information you cannot find, focus on what you know.
Now, it could be helpful to see my changes, look [http://icannwiki.com/index.php?title=ICANN_2&action=history here]. You can select to look at your version compared against my edits. This way you can [http://icannwiki.com/index.php?title=ICANN_2&action=historysubmit&diff=54564&oldid=52636 see] what I have deleted and what I have changed.
Let me know if you have further questions and please keep these edits in mind.
...Also the ICANN 2 article comes to an abrupt end, and there is no info on the third day of the meeting, please look into adding more information.

===research===
You can expect that there will not be much information on the first half of the ICANN meetings, as they were some time ago and there wasn't enough interest, attention, and documentation to make them big news events. However, as you get closer to the present you will note that you will find much more information. I suggest always trying to switch up your google searches, so don't stop at "ICANN 2", look for "ICANN 2 Germany", "ICANN Germany 1998", etc. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
==Update==
Thanks for updating me. I hope to have time to take a look at your more recent efforts soon so I can provide further feedback to help you with the rest of the work. Best, [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
==ICANN 5 article==
Steven,
I have edited your [[ICANN 5]] article. As Andrew stated above, it is very important that you include your sources properly in all future articles. The section "Meeting" currently has no references and I do not know where you got this information from. So this needs to be added.
Also please include information from this article in your paragraph about the board meeting:
http://www.icann.org/en/groups/board/documents/prelim-report-10mar00-en.htm
Much of the information you included in your article was unnecessary. If you find yourself explaining the exact same thing in all of the articles you are doing, it is better not to include it in any of them. Specific information is better than general information.
Please compare the article after my edits ([[ICANN 5|here]]) to the version that you wrote ([http://icannwiki.com/index.php?title=ICANN_5&oldid=54409 here]). Let me know if you have any questions. [[User:Caterina|Caterina]]
