More funky, or…
…less funky.

- How many millions of people benefit from Wikipedia every day,
- How marvelous it is that people all over the world have collaborated to create this unique resource,
- How important sharing knowledge is,
- How people working together over time can do amazing things.
Hope that was an inspiring musing. 😎-----😇

- What I liked
The fact it let you see pure and unrestrained wikipedia editing, not blocking out features not currently useful (most of the time), and the little sound links that played music when you answered questions
- What I didn't like
Nothing really, it was pretty great
- What I wanted more of
scanning through articles to find problems, and fixing readability issues

nothing really, what was there was good

Thank you for making this :)

User:Zanygenius/Feedback on the TWA
Greetings, I'm User:Zanygenuus, who has been editing since 18 December 2017. Although I just got around to doing the [{Wikipedia:TWA]] today. For the most part, I had a blast! And I really need a refresher. However I noticed that my constructive edits were sometimes completely reverted by "other users". You might check into that.
- What I liked
- Fun
- Good learning
- Barnstar! (Even though it was fake).
I would do it again.
- What I didn't like
- Doesn't let you through if you don't press on the certain buttons in the tutorial box. Like if I try publishing something without clicking on the "I did that" button, t will tell me to go back and do it again.
- Fails to notice the obvious and adjusts for them, like on citations, where I had inserted some in there beforehand and it still tagged me.
- What I wanted more of
I'm not sure, though I wish that the other editors would actually use the WP:MOS on the talk page, they divided their stuff up when some of it belonged together (like answering someone else). They sorta didi it, I wish they did it more correctly.
- What was unnecessary
Not sure.

Oops, I put my comment in the wrong spot. Here:

Anyways, glad I took it, and hopefully those tips will help.

Feedback from a blind person's perspective
Feedback
- What I liked
The adventure was perhaps the easiest and fun way to introduce editing concepts I have tried.
I have read a few such articles in the past as an anonymous editor, but actually creating an account and having a safe place to practise everything discussed was fantastic.
- What I didn't like
There wasn't much I didn't like.
However, I would like to point out that, as a blind user, I would kindly suggest you add alt text to the images used in the tutorial, particularly the ones telling you which buttons to press. Hearing my screen reader saying something like "VectorInsertImage.svg" and working out that it actually means the "embed file" took some trial and error. I ended up inserting a picture gallery at one point as I thought that's what it meant.
Also, the link to close the tutorial needs a text label. I pressed it experimentally a couple of times, closing the adventure. I then had to start the mission I was on from the beginning, resulting in duplicate messages being added to my talk page etc.
Again, these are minor things that would take seconds to implement, and it would make for an even greater and accessible experience.
- What I wanted more of
In the section on inserting images, I would like to see an exercise on inserting alt text for the visually impaired. I have noticed a lot of images on Wikipedia of late do have descriptive alt text, which is wonderful. So teaching people about this during the adventure would be brilliant.
Add a section about previewing changes before publishing. This is a habit I have developed, but it might not be obvious to other users.
- What was unnecessary
Maybe the little videos. But I just ended up skipping over them.
- Any other thoughts you want to share
As I said above, this is extremely well done, and if I had known about this in the past, I would have probably created an account long before.
Just a quick typo I want to bring to your attention in "You've got Verifi-ability"
Let's put this new knowlege to use! It should be "knowledge".
Keep up the good work. PS. Sorry about the formatting. --KaraLG84 (talk) 14:04, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
