• uni-focus-version:

merger of the university-part of SUP with Wikipedia:Ambassadors/Courses and establish WIkipedia:School projects under the roof of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Classroom coordination. a joint page Wikipedia:Educational assignments could ensure an overview and delegate the user in the direction, he is interested in

• pros:

• clear structures
• reflects different learning environment in school/higher education
• gets rid of some redundant on wiki-structures
• can prearrange the system for the more global approach regarding a higher volume of school project output

• contras

• the school projects/ambassador projects in higher education aren't defined and (often) not factual on the ground

• the ambassador projects, which are likely to take place on en.wp, are structured along the national lines of wikimedia chapter structures and that neither recommends a single page regarding transparency and responsibility nor the different circumstances on the ground

• joint version:

WP:SUP simply integrates the established Wikipedia:Ambassadors/Courses-list via template

• pros:

• a joint page for all practical educational outreach activities, that provide base informations regarding all possible processes, would be maintained
• no need for re-structuring of the wikipedia name space

• contras:

• it's unclear whether or not the established ambassador structures would have to move to a US-specific WPNS-lemma
• doesn't reflect qualitative differences regarding community support
• doesn't reflect the progress we made between 2009 and 2011
