Thanks! This was really a great idea for a project! This is also my first time posting something on a talk page...hope I'm doing it right! As a side note, I've seen some typos on some locked wikipedia pages that I'd like to get my hands on, but I guess I won't be able to, eh? Any way to unlock a locked page?

Quick 'Wikipedia etiquette' question: Is it okay to put up the headings and subheadings on the AAC page even if no one's written anything yet? Or does it have to wait until someone posts what they've written for that section? For example, there's no section discussing populations - can I put up the headings and subheadings for that as a placeholder because this IS an article 'under repair', or is this considered a no-no?

Disagreement:
liyush, phlipphlop, chocohol, jerseylicious and I are disagreeing on a point that we hope you'll clear up for us. Are we supposed to do our research and editing on the WP:SUC/AAC http://en.wikipedia.orgview_html.php?sq=Qlik&lang=&q=Wikipedia:School_and_university_projects/AAC school project] page or on the already existing Augmentative and Alternative Communication page? I said the AAC page, they're saying that we have to put the things under where we signed up for what it is we want to do and that at some point you are going to create a new article with what we've written on the project page. I know we're allowed to play around in the sandbox on the project page, but could you let us know which page it is we're supposed to ultimately edit?

Content question:
I wanted to know what did you want to be included under the subheading 'outcomes'? As I was reading some articles on AAC and wanted to include some of the information I read in the 'outcomes' section but I am not sure what 'outcomes' you are referring to.
My other question is related to pictures. Where can I get pictures of some high-tech AAC devices (the most popular ones) and would it be ok to take a picture of a brochure I have and post something from that brochure?

Combining references
On the AAC page, you had this in the history: "adding ref names so that references that are the same go together into one reference". I was wondering how to do that - can you put the code for that on the project page, or send me a link where it explains how to do that?
Thanks!

Never mind, figured it out, but maybe it'll still be helpful for others...

Hi,I just added the ALS section to the AAC page. I was wondering if there's a way to link up key words to other sections of the same page. For example, I use the term VOCA which I'm sure will be defined elsewhere on the page. Thanks!--Karyna (talk) 17:18, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
Hi Poule, I added in my cerebral palsy section (it was about 4 or 5 paragraphs) and people edited it down to one paragraph now. I know public editing is allow in WP but I am just wondering how will you know what I wrote and how will you be able to mark my contribution. Thanks.

Hi Poule, In order to get the sandbox section over to the actual article page, is it just as simple as copying and pasting, or is there another way to do this? Thanks! --Phlip phlop (talk) 19:15, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
Hi Poule,
As I was working on the assignment, I thought that it might be helpful to list AAC devices and programs on the wikipedia page. The problem is that I'm not sure if this violates copyright laws or something like that. What do you think?--Karyna (talk) 17:40, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
Hi Poule, 2 quick questions: when you asked us to send you our real names over email, did you mean mcgill mail, or is there some WP mail that I haven't yet discovered? Also, how do I tell you that I collaborated with someone on a contribution, so that they get credit, too? thanks. Yamsey (talk) 05:03, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
