Office hours

Joni Spigler (Wikipedia Campus Ambassador)

Hi! My name is Joni Spigler and I will be one of your "Wikipedia Campus Ambassadors" for this class! I have decided to hold office hours at Caffe Strada (Corner of College and Bancroft) on Mondays from 12:00pm-1pm BY APPOINTMENT. What this means is that, should you wish to meet with me to learn about editing the Wikipedia, or anything else Wikipedia-related, you should send me an email at jspigler [at] berkeley [dot] edu and let me know that you intend to come and (briefly) tell me what you wish to know/learn. Then we will Rendezvous and I will answer all your questions!* *YMMV. Cheers. Saudade7 07:01, 25 January 2011 (UTC) PS. Don't believe it. Matt is very perky.[reply]

Max Klein (Facilitator and also SFSU's Campus Ambassador)

My demeanor is less perky than Joni's but I'll also be amenable to all PoP- and wiki-related questions each
Tuesday at 12 midday at Yali's cafe in Hearst Mining Circle for an hour.

Patrick Berger

I am the curly haired and very non-british facilitator! My email is patrickrberger [at] gmail [dot] com, so feel free to ask me any questions you need about the course. I'll be able to help you out a lot with choices for current events, and I'll definitely help once we start going on the projects. I know a bit of wikipedia coding, but honestly not too much more than any of you - so you'd be better asking Max or Joni about that. I'll set up office hours once we get into the main project of the course.
