 * FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

Do people in Afghanistan watch movies? It's part of my essay, and I can't seem to find it on the wiki.

While I was writing my post, I tried to highlight my writing so I could put a link on it, but it wasn't working.

I was wondering that if someone posted a video and didn't watch all of it and the part that they didn't watch was inappropriate, would you notify the person before you marked that person wrong? Not that I did that! I would never do something like that!
 * You should not post any videos (because we do not have permission to take them), but you can link to them. If there are any concerns, I would talk to you. The best thing to do is read or watch all of the content you link to. **

I wanted to know why some topics such as "Community Service" have a protected sign instead of edit? Can you still comment on the video about children saving pennies for others to go to school?
 * Some pages have a "Protected" sign, instead of "edit" because there is content on the page that we do not want to be changed and it is not a page that requires comments. If you want to make comments about the video, you can definitely add those to this page, instead. **

When is the deadline to bring in pennies for "Pennies for Peace"?
 * The deadline is the last day of school before Spring Break-- March 19th. **

Sometimes my wiki says "protected". Is there something I can do to make it "unprotected" so, I can edit the page?
 * If it says "protected" it is either because you have not signed in, or because Ms. Garfield and I do not want comments on that page (i.e. home, Communty Service, Lower School). There is space above on this page to discuss Pennies for Peace. **

I tried to make an edit on my comment, but it doesn't show up on the wiki. It's on the history, but I can't make a change. Also, when that same comment got deleted the first time, I made another one, so there may be two of the same or similar one.
 * Send me a message about individual concerns like this one. Then I can help you trouble-shoot. **


 * I have noticed that a lot of people are changing the pictures on their accounts. I have done this too, and I was wondering if we shouldn't be doing that, because I can just switch it back if we shouldn't. **
 * It's fine to change the picture as long as the picture is NOT a photograph of you and as long as it is appropriate. **

I was just wandering what we would do for homework since we didn't have school for a more than a week. This question is for both History and English.
 * You should check the homework portal for all your classes. **

I just wanted to say that we all should be careful to type in the right spot, because a lot of comments are showing up out of place.
 * Good point! **

I went to the Lower School page and clicked on the link, but it told me that it wasn't a valid page.
 * I'll check that out and see if I can fix the link. **

Where can we post our opinions on the war in Afghanistan? I looked through and could not find a place. Is it alright if I put it under "Afghanistan's History and Government", or should I move it?
 * Sounds like the best place to me! **

I have found a way to check how many posts I've made, and it says I have 31. I'm sure that can't be.

=PENNIES FOR PEACE:= The video was great. It showed how just young kids can save so much just from pennies! I think it cool that we can help at our school. Collect all you can!
 * I agree! **

I enjoyed the video! It really sent the message of "Pennies for Peace" really clearly!

After watching the video it made me think a lot more about what a penny can do in other countries around the world too.

Now that you've watched the video, think about how you can persuade other students to contribute their pennies to Pennies for Peace
