I typically teach with Wikipedia once a year, and there's often new Dashboard 
functionality or tutorials to take advantage of. However, I'm presently 
struggling with the Peer Review functionality.

This semester I decided to use the Dashboard's peer review and some students 
are still in their sandbox and others are in mainspace and when they move or 
rename their article the Dashboard doesn't track it, so its hard for students 
to find others' work. There's a bunch of links now (for the sandbox and 
mainspace) and I expect students who give feedback on work that is in the 
mainspace will leave it on the sandbox if there's still an old copy, etc.

Additionally, there are now links for "peer review" in the dashboard that 
create separate pages, instead of encouraging students to edit the article for minor 
fixes and use the Talk page for discussion.

Am I misunderstanding how to use this; does anyone have any tips?

I'm thinking the old fashion approach of simply creating a user page where the 
students manually share the latest link to their content and sign up for others 
is easier...?
