You can help develop this proposal, share your thoughts, or discuss its adoption as a Wikiversity policy, guideline, or process. References or links should describe this page as a "proposal".


Wikiversity allows creation of subpages for articles in the main namespace. Subpages are given names such as "Page/Subpage". Subpages are used to help organise individual projects such as courses, seminars, and research projects.

Example of a main namespace page with a subpage.

Courses[edit]

Courses are learning projects that can be joined at any time. Courses can have subpages like:

  • Source materials (texts and articles)
  • Help desk (for list of "tutors")
  • Participants (students)
  • Quizzing and testing materials
  • Papers, etc.
    • Papers by student

Classes[edit]

Classes are guided by instructors. These take place over a certain time frame. (Maybe not needed)

Classes on Wikiversity could use subpages for some or all of the following:

  • Source materials
  • Instructors
  • Rosters
  • Syllabi
  • Quizzes
  • Tests
  • Study guides
  • Papers
  • Papers by students
  • Reflections by students
  • Assignments by students
  • Whatever else you might find useful. Please be creative and innovative. Wikiversity is somewhat of an experiment!

For example you could use a page like Introduction to Engineering/Student848/Reflection 1, Introduction to Engineering/Roster, Introduction to Engineering/Quiz 1, Introduction to Engineering/Exam 1 study guide/Answers, etc. Please use subpages so long as they are useful!

Seminars[edit]

Seminars are student-led, though instructors advise. These are split into projects, which may or may not have time limits.

  • Instructors
  • Projects
    • Source materials
    • Other materials (for art projects, etc.)
    • Submission and critique

Research[edit]

  • Brainstorming
  • Different sections of research (results, methods, introductions, etc.)
  • Publishing papers
  • Allowing for peer review
  • Start a peer reviewed journal at Wikiversity

Userpages[edit]

  • Archives
  • Sandboxes (testpages)
  • Workspaces
  • Educational related blogs

(learning) Projects[edit]

  • Organization, organization, organization

Please note that Lunar Boom Town and CisLunarFreighter makes copious use of subpages.

Once you have an account here at Wikiversity for a few days or so, the move function can be a rather useful tool!
