=Issue 2 - Fruit=

**Same drill as always. Check back regularly to see if editing's done and make the necessary changes. - Lenz**
** Note to Authors :** Please **submit** your article to the **"Awaiting Editor Revision"** section with this format: (uploaded document) Title of Article (type of article) by Author of Article An example is:

[[file:movie_review2 (edited).docx]]The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (movie review) by Grace Ko
To eliminate future confusion, please **name your document with this format**: articletitle_authorname Thank you for following these guidelines! It makes it a lot easier for us to organize! :)
 * After you submit**, CHECK BACK to this wikispace for Lenz's edit! It will be in the "**Awaiting Author Revision"** section (and deleted from the "Awaiting Editor Revision" section. If it's still there, **DELETE IT!** This prevents confusion and makes it a lot easier to organize!)
 * After revising your article**, upload it again to the **"Articles Ready for Layout"** section with the following document name: articletitle_authorname_final

=** Article Assignments **= **- The revised Word From The Desk. Use this version instead, it's better than the tripe I put out the last time. - Lenz** =** Submitted Articles **= Issue2Cover by Max and Connie Wang (Had this up a few weeks ago... don't know what happened to it. Reuploaded) Wow guys, this is really gorgeous!! --Ms. Edmunds

Fruit Ninja article by Kevin Jou and Zhu. **They uploaded the file yesterday, but didn't submit it here. Alex should have this taken care of. - Frank**

- Perry, Bernard, and the Dinner Date (article/story) by Caroline Zhang. **Could you re-upload this in a Word document so I can add comments? Thanks. - Lenz （It's already re-uploaded.)**


 * I'm not sure that embedding the jokes within a story works. Is there a different way to present the jokes? Ms. Edmunds**
 * I feel that if I just put a list of jokes, it's plagiarizing and unoriginal though. Could you help me? Caroline**

It's late, really really really late. Hopefully it's amusing enough to make up for the lateness. -Alvin
 * The problem I feel is is that taking the jokes themselves off the Internet is just rather unoriginal in the first place. I really hate to do this, but I simply don't think that this is fixable, as there really isn't a better way to present these jokes. For next time, make sure that it comes from you, and not the Internet. I'm sure people would be more interested in reading about an original work instead of a rehash of jokes we've heard multiple times before. - With much apologies, Lenz**

CAS project and approved by Ms. Edmunds- Akshay Well, I approved the IDEA, not what was uploaded. The sketches need much more thought and development before we consider publishing them. Sorry! Ms. Edmunds Note from Mr. Chao -- Sorry, guys, this is still not suitable for a CAS project!

**Article signups for layout and layout-finished articles have been moved to the layout page!**
**- I went over the points to take with you on MSN, I believe. Looks pretty promising otherwise. - Lenz** = Articles Ready for Layout =

 * [[file:strange fruit article micky wong final-1.docx]] I hope I'm not too late... I redid the whole second part and this time it took me to a complete different direction. I think it is now much more meaningful and relevant. the only thing I'm worried about is if i ended it too seriously? -- Micky **Made a few minor edits. T**his works nicely with Wen-ting's article. What do you think Lenz? -- Ms. Edmunds Definitely. Go for it. - Lenz**

Hey Angela, if it's not too late I've made some minor changes. Although if the layout is already complete then don't worry about it, the original version is fine too (: - gwen.

= Claimed Articles (Check Layout Page) =

=** Articles that are FINISHED (finished means layout finished, packaged and ON THE SERVER!) **= Angela Wu

Made a few minor edits. Loved this story and its natural connection to the theme. Well-done! Ms. Edmunds Looks good, Lenz. A little more reflection on the articles within Issue 2 would be good (references to the darker pieces) but I think that for now it's fine. We're glad to have you back -- I hear Singapore was great! Alex 10th

- Edits were great, Lenz, left it as edited, if that's cool. - Daniel Angela Wu

**- I'm assuming you wrote this Chi Wei? Good stuff, but remember to explicitly state that you wrote this when you upload the article to the wiki so that we know who wrote what. Also another good idea would be to take pictures of the finished product to show the reader what the final product should look like. - Lenz (Chi Wei has promised to make them this week-end and bring them to Tuesday's meeting! -- An example of how WORD magazine can eat its words!) Ms. Edmunds** Tait

- Lenz, I took your edits into consideration. Here is the edited version. There is not much I changed from what you changed, so it should be good. By the way, I love Arcade Fire's new album too! - Grace Keli Angela Wu

I hope the second draft isn't too late. Anyways, Ms. Edmunds, you have a good idea for the title? --wenting Keli

** by Shane Oh. Short factoids about tomato's dual citizenship as fruit and veggie. Needs some good drawings of tomatoes.** Keli

Fable about how the watermelon got its stripes. Cute. Needs some good illustrations. Ms. E Alright Ms. Edmunds, I read over the story again. It's nice :D ~ Tiffany W Angella

dude im sorry. didnt know how to do this. my poem on fruit, hope you like it. if not. c'est dommage. :) Angella

Moved from awaiting author revision -- looks fine to me. Angela Wu Cute, Akshay. I think it's ready to go. I'd love to get pictures of Akshay and Gwen with the thumbs up/down. Angela Wu

(Angela, I've taken my picture but I think Akshay needs to go in and take his? I might want to re-do mine though... - gwen.) =Writer's Deadline: **November 13**=



Alex and Lenz and MUN-ers, welcome back from Singapore!

 * Hey Lenz, we need Word from the Desk ASAP -- layout needs to get everything done by Dec. 1-2 -- Ms. Edmunds**


 * Firstly, I'd like to apologise my inability to get m**ore edits done before I left. I had a whole ton of work to finish (IB. Gotta love it) before I left, and I really couldn't find the time to do much work for the magazine. Hopefully there won't be a repeat of this. Anyway, have the WFTD for this issue. Hopefully it's not too short. [[file:Word From The Desk – Issue Two-1.docx]]


 * - Lenz**


 * Has anyone seen Student Spotlight? (Ji Young is working on that, I'm not sure how far she is though.)**

edited and ready for layout. Jimmy, don't forget byline and looking/okaying Lenz's edits. Alex (10th)

Lenz, this has some minor edits and is ready for layout. Ms. Edmunds Ma

World Series 2010 by Dan and Frank (includes some fruit puns to meet the magazine theme) Good solid article -- can you find the photo you have in mind and make it a little easier for layout? --Ms. Edmunds Ma
