ArbCom 2019 election voter messageWeek 8/Response to Peer Review/YgplusplusThis week I reviewed the article from tt1887. As this week pretty same with the Week 7, I learned more about how to review other's work and give me more sense about how to review and edit article. The link is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Tt1887/Barcode_reader/Ygplusplus_Peer_Review?veaction=edit&preload=Template%3ADashboard.wikiedu.org_peer_review. The tt1887 mainly add the citation which should be added. For the article I edit, the link is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=History_of_pizza&type=revision&diff=926879416&oldid=926214451. For the lesson learned, there are lot of articles may lose the citations. We can easily add reliable citations by Wikipedia's advanced function. Ygplusplus (talk) 01:11, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
Week 8/Response to Peer Review/Jingw99In this week's session, I feel peer review helped me think about my editing to new articles. Seeing my peers work in different area of study is interesting ,and give me new perspective about areas I have no idea before. The link to my peer review this week is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Irisnan1009/2019_League_of_Legends_World_Championship/Jingw99_Peer_Review .The difference link to my new article is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Black_sesame_soup&type=revision&diff=926880943&oldid=889282604 . In the process, I feel more comfortable adding new citation to different articles.Jingw99 (talk) 01:27, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
Week 9/Moving your work to Wikipedia/YgplusplusThis week I learned how to use sandbox as a tool to help us either edit article or create a new article. One thing that I learned from training module is that the we need divide small pieces for editing an existing artcle and make summary at the end. The reason for doing that is it's help reader know which part you edit and understand the change you made. Ygplusplus (talk) 01:28, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Week 6/Plagiarism/Jingw99In this week's lesson, I have learned that the copyright and plagiarism is very important. Additionally, how is rephrase a citation is crucial when adding a new citation. Restructure a new sentence seem be the best choice. Here is the link to my this week's article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tofu . This is the comparison page https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tofu&type=revision&diff=926836533&oldid=924957106 . During the process, I have learned a lot articles don't have proper citations, and there is a lot we can help with.Jingw99 (talk) 00:14, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
Week 7/Peer Review/Jingw99During this week's lesson, I found the tutorial sessions are very helpful.I can go back to see how to go through the process at anytime during my peer review. The link to my peer review is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Ygplusplus/Coffea_arabica/Jingw99_Peer_Review . The difference page for the new article I added more citation is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tong_sui&type=revision&diff=926875150&oldid=919588579 .

Week 7/peer review/YgplusplusFrom this week, I learned how to peer review other's work. With the standard that wiki provide, it's very clear and help us understand how the process going through. With that process, it also helps me understand more about how to edit the article on the wikipedia. The person I reviews is from Rayray411. And the link for my peer review is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Rayray411/Working_memory/Ygplusplus_Peer_Review. Fot the article I reviewed and edit, the link is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Peet%27s_Coffee&type=revision&diff=926830816&oldid=924831728.For the lesson I learned, Wikipedia provides publics a lot of resouces, it is hard to keep every article on date. It's our responsibility to keep files up to date with neutral attitude. Ygplusplus (talk) 00:04, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
Hello professor. I have changed the source to the qsrmagazine. The link for that change:https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Peet%27s_Coffee&type=revision&diff=927355206&oldid=927355045. Thank you so much for your helping. Ygplusplus (talk) 23:57, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
Week 12/ Final Review/ Nul90When I review an article i try to focus on the content, grammar, one sided opinions and images. Based on the articles that I have reviews there weren't much of a grammar issue. What I evaluated the most was adding more content to the articles. I have been reading a lot around climate change and I felt that I should add the resources that supports the comments that were made. I also focused on making sure that the information is factual that there isn't a one sided opinion being stated. These articles are not blogs this way we want to avoid saying how we feel about the topic. Also I enjoyed learning how to add images to the articles that I felt were appropriate to give it a better visual. Nul90 (talk) 14:59, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
Week 11/Polish Your Work/DragonrollI added a citation, reorganized the article, and updated a few statistics in the table because the data was too old. I learned ways to improve an article and make it more credible and easy to understand from the Wikipedia editing process. Also, when I read articles online, I have the ability to process the information critically from the articles. Dragonroll (talk) 22:37, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
StubsPlease remember that all {{stub}} tags go at the bottom of the article, not the top (WP:ORDER) and take care not to add this tag to an article like Lagueria Davis which already has a specific stub tag. Thanks. PamD 16:58, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

I as able to nominate my article and point out an interesting fact of DYK. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Did_you_know_nominations/Climate_change/ I can see this feature being used when you want to share an important fact with someone based on the article you found.Nul90 (talk) 14:27, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Week 11/ Expand Article/ Nul90I have assigned myself multiple articles and now that I learned how to add images i have been reviewing each article and making changes by adding images. Here is another article that I added an imagehttps://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=LGBT&type=revision&diff=927902407&oldid=927190649Nul90 (talk) 14:48, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
week9/movingworkWikipedia/irisnan1009This week, I went over week 9's learning module. Even though I don't have anything to create and add on Wiki on my mind now, these information are very important and useful for me when I want to add more content or create a new Wiki page in the future. I learned that before I add my content on to the Wiki page, I can always check article's Talk page first because there could be some discussion already going on with the content I am adding. Irisnan1009 (talk) 10:22, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
Week11/Expand article/WILL.I.AMMJIn order to expand my article, I feel adding another picture in this article is much more powerful than adding a citation. I found a picture that look like the whole difficult journey of LGBTQ history. Here is the link https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=LGBT&diff=928697185&oldid=927969638. Picture sometime can strongly describe the context where I am happily that I learned this feature in the wikipedia instruction.WILL.I.AMMJ (talk) 02:02, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
Week12/Final review/WILL.I.AMMJI truly appreciate that our professor have assigned us the extra credit for learning editing of Wikipedia. Before I've learned, I generally use the wikipedia to search some academical puzzles. To be honest, I do not even know that everyone can edit the wikipedia page by conveying unbiased opinion. This is incredible because by combining the diversified opinion from all over the world, the articles can be pretty much objective. When I'm learning the edit of wikipedia, I found out I can add more content, citation, images, media, and etc. besides revising the the minor mistakes, such as grammar or vocabulary. I agree with my classmate Nul90 that the wikipedia is not like a personal blog because it is more like a worldwide platform to show the unbiased and complete concepts that benefit everyone. I do appreciate that.WILL.I.AMMJ (talk) 02:14, 1 December 2019 (UTC)

Wikidata weekly summary #393![]() Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
You can see all open tickets related to Wikidata here. If you want to help, you can also have a look at the tasks needing a volunteer.
Week 10/ Add image/ Nul90This feature was my favorite because you can actually click on the article and it provides options for images you can use. Also this way you don'y have to worry about copying someones work. It was also every simple to publish it. I think images speak louder than words and when you add images to an article it brings the article to life.https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Global_warming&type=revision&diff=927901548&oldid=927804485Nul90 (talk) 14:39, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
Week 9/Move Your Work to Wiki/Jingw99In this week lesson, the training module taught me how the sandbox can be helpful when editing the existing articles. I also think create draft in the sandbox is very useful.It help the user to polish the article well before putting out to the mainstream. I enjoyed using sandbox as a temporary place to hold my content before publish.Jingw99 (talk) 22:57, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
Week 10/Add Picture/Jingw99In this week's lesson,I used the wiki picture database to add a picture for one of the article that I edited before. I feel the wiki picture database is very helpful. It allows me find pictures that I don't have to worried about the copyright issues. The difference page for my new picture addition is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tong_sui&type=revision&diff=928987346&oldid=927221753 I think add picture is very persuasive for viewers to understand the article. Jingw99 (talk) 23:25, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
Week 11/Polish Article/Jingw99In this week's editing, I add an another picture to one of my articles. In this week's article, the content have a lot diversity, however, the information can be very repetitive from a viewer's standing point. So I added more picture so that it can be more clear, and the viewer can tell the difference by just looking at different pictures. The link to my editing is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tofu&type=revision&diff=928989278&oldid=928638438 I think pictures make content more readable not only applied to this article but other articles as well.Jingw99 (talk) 23:44, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
Week 12/Final Review/Jingw99In this semester of editing on Wikipedia, I have gained access to multiple Wikipedia features I have no idea before. Adding citations and picture is two things that I found most interesting in the process. Citation is a wonderful tool to keep Wikipedia unbiased and accurate. Peer review is also very interesting. I was able to see what my classmate's interest are, and show me area I have no idea before. I used to only take Wikipedia as a place to look for things I don't know. Now, I have appreciated Wikipedia more for all the editor's effort putting into different articles. Overall, I think editing Wikipedia is a valuable experience, and definitely taught me a great lesson.Jingw99 (talk) 00:06, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
Week 10/Add image/YgplusplusThis week I learned how to add image. There are different licenses that you could follow in wikipedia. In addition, we can add our own image on wikipedia. Also, wiki provides us several useful engines to search image which is really helpful. The link for the article I added an image is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=History_of_pizza&type=revision&diff=929007848&oldid=927961639. Ygplusplus (talk) 02:17, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
Week11/Expand Article/YgplusplusFor this week's practice, I reviewed the previous articles which I assgined before and found one article missing the citations. After several practices, I feel I am more confident when I edit the article on the wikipedia. THis time I found the proper source for this article's citation which is from science article. The link for this article I edit is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Coffea_arabica&type=revision&diff=929010458&oldid=928937347. Ygplusplus (talk) 02:40, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
Week 12/Final Article/YgplusplusIn this semester, I know more internal side of the wikipedia. Thanks professor for providing this opportunity to us. I learned how to evaluate the articles based on the guideline that wiki provide to us. Also, I learned how to edit articles in wikipedia. Before, I used wiki but never know how to be an participant. Now, I feel confident when I am editing the articles in wikipedia.Ygplusplus (talk) 02:48, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
Week 12/Final Article/DragonrollI read through the checklist and check my revision according to the checklist. In general, the article has a clear first sentence and a good title. The lead section summarizes the whole article after my editing. When I add citations, I tried to use neutral words and not present my personal views. Also, I wrote in easy language, so it should be easy to understand for the non-expert. The picture that I found online has been shared to Wikipedia Commons. Dragonroll (talk) 06:11, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
Week10/Add an image/Tt1887In this week, I updated Digital Image Processing a little bit more. I added some links that refer to other articles that can help readers understand more about this area. The diff link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Digital_image_processing&type=revision&diff=927279243&oldid=927268677 I have learned how to add images and files to improve the articles. Many images we usually found online cannot be used because of the copyright. I am glad that Wikipedia provides some websites: Creative Commons Search and we can use this website to grab the image with proper licenses to put on Wikipedia. I think I am getting more and more comfortable to edit and write Wikipedia. Tt1887 (talk) 16:00, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
Week11/Expand article/Tt1887This week, I keep revising the article Digital Image Processing. I improved sentences from the lead and make it more linked to History and Applications. I give the reasons why this topic is popular in recent years. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Digital_image_processing&type=revision&diff=926134769&oldid=923809482 From the process, I learned that some improvement may not be made if we only read and revise the article once. This is a build-up process. Every time we read the article; we will come up different new ideas to improve the article. The more we learn and revise the article, the better the article will be. Tt1887 (talk) 16:04, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
Week 12/Final Article/Tt1887This week, I go over the final review checklist and make sure everything from the article I revised to match those requirements. Through those 12 weeks of study, I learned how to choose and evaluate an article. I also learned how to find and revise the article properly. I have edited 5 articles in this semester. The article I focused most is the digital image processing, I added many contents to the history section and make the article easier to read and attract readers comparing to earlier versions. I have also peer-reviewed two students’ articles and evaluate their revisions. Reviewing others’ revisions can help me learn how to revise an article from different directions and aware of the potential mistake I could make. Overall, the Wikipedia lessons from this semester are enjoyable and useful for me. It provides an opportunity for me to evaluate an article and revise an article on my interested areas. I also learned how to determine which information is trustable and which information needs to be revised. This is very important for readers from all over the world to keep formatting, improving, updating the article. Tt1887 (talk) 16:05, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
Week10/Add an image/WILL.I.AMMJI am surprised that I learned how to add an image on the Wikipedia article page. I added an image on this article. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gay&diff=928695415&oldid=920966882. I believe that sometimes a picture could convey more information than some plain words. However, we should be very careful when citing the image on the page, because most of them have copyrights that we can randomly post in somewhere. But from the wikipedia instruction, I clearly know where to find a picture to legally post. WILL.I.AMMJ (talk) 01:49, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
Week9/Did you know/WILL.I.AMMJThe "Did you know" feature actually brings some attention for other wikipedia users. I actually nominated a topic which I think it is worth to let people know about it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Did_you_know_nominations/LGBT. Whenever people share their opinion on the article, I can discuss with diversified people about their opinions.WILL.I.AMMJ (talk) 22:58, 30 November 2019 (UTC)
Week 9/ Did you know/ cj1447In this week, I read the article of the Pokémon again because I am interesting about this game. By study in this week, I know that if I want to add something to the Wiki page, before this work, I can go to the Talk page and read someone’s discussion, then I can do the redetermination and post it. Here is the edit for the work in Pokémon: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pok%C3%A9mon_(video_game_series)&diff=929464961&oldid=928809869 Cj1447 (talk) 00:39, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
Week10/Add an image/cj1447In this week, I study how to add an image on the Wikipedia article page. That is a good tool for using the Wikipedia, it will help us to find a good image and make the Wikipedia article better. I read the article about Trance music again and make the change about the image. The link is: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trance_music&diff=929471757&oldid=927477609 I know that everyone should be very careful when citing the image on the page of Wiki, so I use the CC Search to find my image.Cj1447 (talk) 01:45, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
Week 12/Final Article/cj1447In this semester of editing on Wikipedia, I gain a lot. I study a lot of the skills about the Wikipedia. I can correct grammatical errors, add the reference for the article and add the image for the article. The reference is the important for the article in Wikipedia. That will make the article more unbiased and accurate. When I read the article from Wikipedia, I found that the article is objective, and it will change by everyone. That is the worldwide platform for everyone, it will show the unbiased view for the world. That all my get in this semester. Cj1447 (talk) 03:12, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
Week11/Expand article/cj1447In this week, in order to expand my article for the Pokémon, I want to find some powerful citation. So, I read the detail of the Gameplay, it needs to add the citation in it. Here is the different between it: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pok%C3%A9mon_(video_game_series)&diff=929481954&oldid=929464961 After did this in the article, I learn that the most important for the article is the reference for every sentence. So, I did a lot job for the citation. Cj1447 (talk) 03:24, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Legobot (talk) 04:28, 6 December 2019 (UTC) week 9/Did you know/BoboandyThis week I reviewed the article about Pokeman I edited in the past weeks. I am a huge fan of Pokeman and I was really happy that I could do something to help people know better about it. This week I saw one of my classmates also joined in and made some edits to the article. I was really happy about this. That makes me feel like I am not alone! By the way, I finished assign myself the article I did on the week 8 assignment. Boboandy (talk) 14:56, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
week 10/Insert images/BoboandyThis week I learned about how to add images or media files to the article. Here is the change I made:https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pok%C3%A9mon_%28video_game_series%29&type=revision&diff=929547951&oldid=929481954. Adding images or media files can make the article easily to be understood and also make it more fun to read. Boboandy (talk) 15:11, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
week 11/Expand Article/BoboandyThis week I continue working on my pokemon!!! I find there is a citation needed to support that pokemon green is only released in Japan. I did not even know this part before. I feel I really learned a lot. I am not only helping and teaching others, but I am also learning from other editors. Here is the change I made: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pok%C3%A9mon_%28video_game_series%29&type=revision&diff=929549856&oldid=929547951Boboandy (talk) 15:26, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
week 12/FinalArticle/BoboandyTime went so fast. I really enjoy the work in Wikipedia and I learned a lot about how people using it. I start to know each article I read before was created and improved by different editors. They work really hard and try to provide accountable resources. I am also proud that I could be one of them and help people know more about the game I love. It's hard to describe my feeling and this is not the end. I will keep working in editing and try my best to help others. Thanks!!!!!!Boboandy (talk) 15:32, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
Week10/add an image/irisnan1009This week, I learned how to add an image to the article. Here is the link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2019_League_of_Legends_World_Championship&type=revision&diff=929600979&oldid=927993030The process is more complicated than I first thought actually. I have to pay attention to the copyright of the image. It is a good choice to upload photo taken by oneself. A good picture with the article can always make the article more vivid and lively.Irisnan1009 (talk) 22:33, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
Week12/final review/irisnan1009I feel lucky that I enrolled in this class and got a chance to do this Wiki extra credit. It is been a fun journey going through this Wiki learning module and I have learned a lot from it. Before I took this course, Wikipedia feels distant to me. It is merely a source that I can gain knowledge from. Now I feel close and involved with Wiki and I am part of it. Not only can I gain knowledge from Wiki, but also I can make contributions to it. The most part I enjoyed is add citations and images to articles. I feel that I can use my resource to make Wiki better. I will definitely keep editing Wiki and make contributions in the future. Irisnan1009 (talk) 23:49, 6 December 2019 (UTC) week11/expand article/irisnan1009This week, I went through all the articles I have edited. Trance music is my favorite topic. So I decide to polish this article by adding an image to it. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trance_music&diff=prev&oldid=929611057 Now that I have learned how to add image to the article through last week's learning process, I am more confident adding image to the article and I am sure I will keep doing it in the future.Irisnan1009 (talk) 00:24, 7 December 2019 (UTC) |
