Articles[edit]

Articles worked in small groups need to be developed collectively in the sandbox of one of the members (group leader) before publishing it into Wikipedia. All participants should contribute individually to the contents (all edits are recorded in the page history).

Group sandboxes will be listed above. For a user named "Johndoe22", his sandbox is [[User:Johndoe22/sandbox|]])

Please note: if you want to expand an existing article, please copy first the wikitext of the article into your sandbox, then work on it safely.

List of articles to be created or improved:

Kristina, Louison and Djordje, Pinar User:Kristina.unipd/sandbox Freedom of movement

Add sections and additional information on specific regions or countries, translate into other languages? THe paragraphs on TUrkey and Serbia are very weak --Calfux22 (talk) 21:41, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mehmet, Hanna, Simone, Daniele, Yuliya User:Blacksheepsmirne/sandbox User:Daniele Tappa/sandbox List of ships for the rescue of refugees in the Mediterranean Sea

This page could do with a better introductory paragraph I suggest a page about the Mare Jonio ship and/or the organization Mediterranea Saving Humans

an article exists in Italian (it:Mediterranea Saving Humans) and in German (de:Mediterranea Saving Humans) - but not in English Mediterranea Saving Humans The English page is a summary of the Italian page with some additional information - Francesca has checked and the content is fine, I have made minor language corrections, it is well referenced and ready to go to Marco to check (of course there are other things that could be added but that can be done later on).--Calfux22 (talk) 21:41, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Linguistic landscape

Add photos to Wikimedia, work This could probably do with some work on the main section by adding some subheadings on the areas of research (eg. multilingualism in signs, minority and dominant languages, historical or diachronic approaches, linguistic landscape in conflict areas (eg Cameroon ),

I have checked and made some minor corrections - seems good now --Calfux22 (talk) 21:41, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
