Repeat: Abandoned course at University of Southern California? And offer to help with sanitation-related articles

Hi User:Ian (Wiki Ed), I had put this on your talk page on 20 December but it was moved to the archive without an answer. So I am copying it again. If my question is not appropriate please let me know on my talk page. Otherwise, I'd love to see a response from you: Hi Ian, I come from the WikiProject Sanitation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Sanitation). I saw on the page on groundwater pollution that a student from this course: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Ed/University_of_Southern_California/Ecological_Factors_in_Design_(Spring_2016) was meant to work on that page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Groundwater_pollution). Seems like nothing has happened though (since February 2016). I couldn't figure out from the course page if the course was abandoned or if just this one student abandoned the assignment? Could you let me know and perhaps also say something on the course page about it? - I also have a question where to find good example pages of where university instructors have successfully involved their students in editing Wikipedia articles. I've started a little list here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Sanitation#Student_assignments But I am sure you probably keep more comprehensive lists? If any university people are interested in getting students to work on pages that are tagged with the WikiProject Sanitation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Sanitation#Lists_by_content) I would be happy to help, e.g. with regards to content, photos, structuring, referencing. EvMsmile (talk) 13:21, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi EvMsmile. Sorry about that - I saw your message and meant to get back to you, but it slipped my mind (and I missed it when I was archiving).

So the student who worked on groundwater pollution was BriManly, and they did end up making some edits. The course page actually has a link to the Wiki Ed Dashboard for the class, up in the top left. For this class, it's here. (Maintaining the education program extension wasn't on WMF's priorities, so we built our own. WMF now runs an implementation of it here; you can read more about it at meta:Programs & Events Dashboard.

As for compiling a more complete list - I should be able to put together a list of sanitation-related articles that students in courses that worked with us have done. I'll get back to you on that. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:28, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. I look forward to seeing your list (it doesn't have to be a list of sanitation-related articles but a list of university courses in general where lecturers have used students to edit Wikipedia articles). If it was part of those dashboard links that you sent, I couldn't quite figure out how to find what I was looking for. EvMsmile (talk) 22:02, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

Wiki Ed/Carleton College/Immunology 2018 (Winter)

Your work in a job I didn't realize existed until today is much appreciated! Having no real connection with the subject myself, a student in this program made an edit recently to page on my watchlist. I've been looking for a project to take on in the new year, what can I do to help here? I have no technical knowledge of the subject, but if I went in and did my best to clean up the assigned articles, would that be a net gain? Are cleanup and copyediting and more menial tasks a big part of what the curriculum is about? If you don't think it's the project for me, I understand that as well, it just piqued my interest. Gabriel syme (talk) 06:00, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

@Gabriel syme: I'm glad you're interested in helping out with students. It differs from class to class (some classes are primarily interested in copyediting, for example, but most are interested in writing content); this class seems mostly interested in adding content, so I'm sure they're appreciate cleanup and copy-editing. A lot of new people struggle with getting WP:MOS stuff right. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:57, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Engineering Education and Wiki ...

Hello Ian and happy new year ... I am teaching two engineering classes this spring ... I have been a long wiki user and last few years, an editor (2k plus edits) ...

Thanks for the Welcome ...

Hello, Ian. I just wanted to say thanks for the welcome to Wikipedia you posted on my talk page and for the training recommendations. I have completed the training you recommended and we (my class) will complete additional courses before we attempt to edit any articles. I also appreciate the introduction to the Tea House, which is something I hadn't heard of. I will certainly check that out! Thanks again! Heather-L (talk) 00:51, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

Infobox Image Upload Help

Hi Ian,

I wanted to add an image into an Infobox for the article page I was assigned. I got up to the Step 3 of the "File Upload Wizard" page but stopped there. In Step 3 the page asked to "provide source and copyright information". I believe the image I want to use is a copyright portrait of my assigned artist (Paul Sepuya) by another photographer (Janus van den Eijnden) which I think belongs in the "This is a copyrighted, non-free work, but I believe it is Fair Use" category. However, I'm having trouble identifying the "Non-free rationale" section as I don't want to get into trouble for adding/uploading an image into the article page's Infobox and get into trouble. If you could help me out in deciding if the image is okay to upload that would be great. The image can be seen here. Thank you for your help! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mmurphy36 (talk • contribs)

User:MaximeRouyer

Hi Ian. I stumbled across User:MaximeRouyer while clecking on some non-free files which were flagged by a bot as violations of WP:NFCC#9. MaximeRouyer was using a non-free file on their userpage, so I removed it. No big deal, and this is something that happens a lot. Anyway, I noticed that Maxime is listed as a student participating in Wikipedia:Wiki_Ed/McGill_University/EDPE_208_(Winter_2018). I can leave message on Maxime's user talk about non-free content use, but I'd thought you want to do so instead since you are one of the WikiEd advisors helping that particular group. You might also want to take a look at Maxime's user page because it's starting to look a bit like a WP:FAKEARTICLE. Again, I can mention to Maxime as well, but it might be better coming from you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 07:29, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

"Save page" not available

Hello Ian! I may have missed it somewhere on "Edit source" page, but it appears as though "Save page" button (recommended in training modules) does not exist. Instead, "Publish changes" is the available option. Have I actually missed "Save page" button or does the "Save page" button and "Publish changes" represent the same function?AlexKuprich (talk) 05:03, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

Student on a GMO page

I noticed that User:Erica Liu, a student in this class, plans to work on Genetically modified organism, which is in the GMO group of articles that are subject to the messy Discretionary Sanctions from ArbCom. I'm letting you know, since you're the Wiki Ed person for the class, in case she needs to be advised about picking a different page. Thanks. --Tryptofish (talk) 22:38, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. It looks like she has picked a less controversial (but perhaps equally challenging) article - green revolution. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 02:13, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the concern. I just changed it to the green revolution. Now, I am a little confused about how to choose topics. So should I give up this green revolution topic again?--Erica Liu (talk) 02:37, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Green revolution is a better choice than the GMO page at least for a student. The green revolution is a large topic, so there may be an area you can pick out for improvement, but it's also a rather fairly established article already too. As long your professor is basing your grade primarily on the draft you write up in your sandbox and you think you can gather enough additions to the original article, I think you'd be ok. It might be tougher moving those edits from your draft to the actual article, but that's entirely dependent upon whatever content you generate. I'd personally recommend a less established article for a student to flesh out, but you at least won't be dealing with as much controversy with the green revolution as GMOs. Kingofaces43 (talk) 03:43, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks everyone. It looks like Erica has also moved off of the Green Revolution page. Erica: I'm sorry your introduction to Wikipedia has been a hassle over this – and by the way, welcome to Wikipedia! What you got caught up in is that, a few years ago, there was a huge editorial battle over how to present material about GMOs, resulting in some very strict restrictions being enacted on all pages related to GMOs, in order to prevent further fighting among editors. As a result, it is very easy to do something unintentionally on those pages, that would lead to an administrator blocking you from editing. Obviously, no one wants that to happen, so we tend to try to steer student editors away from those topics. Many topics where there are present-day political disputes tend to have editing conflicts. I noticed that a lot of the students in your class are working on more specialized and less political topics about practical botany, and you might want to look for a short and incomplete article about a subject like that. Please feel free to ask Ian here, or me at User talk:Tryptofish, if you have any questions. Happy editing! --Tryptofish (talk) 17:13, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Ian, it looks like we have another one with MikeyYB (Mikey, the above discussion could also apply to you) as part of Wikipedia:Wiki_Ed/UW_Bothell/B_WRIT_135_Research_Writing_(Winter_2018). I can't tell from the course page what their planned assignments are though. I'll note that Mikey has had a useful edit that just had some copyediting needed. Depending on what the assignments actually are, they might be able to edit in this topic without much issue, but it might be worth checking in with the professor to see they're planning for students. Kingofaces43 (talk) 16:38, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

@Kingofaces43: Thanks for the heads-up. I saw the edits this morning. This class is only adding a couple sentences, and they're supposed to be done with the assignment, so the odds of running into problems are probably pretty low. I did check the other students sandboxes, and I didn't see any other controversial topics.

I think I'll encourage the instructor to have his students assign themselves the articles they want to work on in the future - that way, I will see if they assign themselves articles subject to DS. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:22, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Need help request from Kuponya (talk)

Hello.

I need help with my Week 5 Dissection Group Topic: Amphiuma section on my sandbox. My group and I were hoping for feedback on whether any of our topics are preferable or would contribute the most to one of the amphiuma pages. That being said, we were also wondering if it would be best for us to focus on just one species of amphiuma, or whether we should try to keep it to the general amphiuma page.

Are there any concerns or challenges that you would expect of our topic ideas as of right now?

Also, for gathering images, is it preferable to contribute our own images, or should we try to annotate an image from one of the articles that we cite, if the source allows that use of their images? Kuponya (talk) 05:52, 10 March 2018 (UTC)

Hello.

I am wondering if you could help/provide me with some feedback on what I plan to add to the Wikipedia article "microbat". The description is listed under week 5 in my sandbox, but mainly I want to add information about the impact to microbats from deprivation of fluid intake. Thank you very much for your time!

Hello Ian!

I am currently working on my draft for my soon-to-be-created article 'Information centre hypothesis,' and I am at the point where I am wondering what I am missing, could add, should change, etc. I'm wondering if you would be willing to help me by briefly reviewing it and seeing if there are any glaring issues. I appreciate it! Thank you.
