More funky, or…
…less funky.
Sit down, have a cup. While you're here something to muse on:
- Think about what an awesome trip you're on,
- 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. 😄

The interactive game had some good examples of how to cite and edit pages. It was much to simple for a beginner though
- What I liked
- Once I got the hang of it the going was smooth.
...The page was never lost. I could always go back to user talk page and click on where I left of in the mission.
- What I didn't like
- The initial instructions could be more clearly defined
...Nothing really. Just theme was childish.
- What I wanted more of
- More practice so as to feel more comfortable
...Citing references and also section editing.
- What was unnecessary
...more practice with exterior links.
- Any other thoughts you want to share
...If it were any easier I wouldn't have learned a thing.

- What I liked
Perfectly designed for new-users. It teaches new user the basic techniques in editing and some basic policies and is very user-friendly
- What I didn't like
Instructions is a little bit confusing in Mission 1.
- What I wanted more of
More complicated staff. These missions are a bit too basic. Many things are left unexplored
- What was unnecessary
N/A
- Any other thoughts you want to share
The adventure needs more promotion. Many new users will not know the adventure exist unless they were welcomed by that particular template. My suggestion is that the project can send a talk page message to new users, similar to the Teahouse message.

- What I liked
It was a great tool for beginners. I really liked the stars and the celebration music at the end of each mission.
- What I didn't like
Sometimes, when I had to add the summary comment and save, the game stacked and I had to start from the begging the section.
- What I wanted more of
This is a great tool for beginners. Maybe it could be nice if you add some more advanced tools.
- What was unnecessary
Hmm, I didn't feel that anything was unnecessary.
- Any other thoughts you want to share
Really nice concept and very helpful.

- What I liked
It is a very simple tutorial that allows to have a look at all the functions of Wikipedia. Feels like a game and makes it easy to learn.
- What I didn't like
I didn't like the fact that sometimes they were some bugs. Sometimes it blocked and I had to edit and save several times in order to get to the next page.
- What I wanted more of
It would be good to be able to go even more into details as an option.
- What was unnecessary
Nothing, very good indeed.

- What I liked
Everything shown was decent.
- What I didn't like
Opened multiple browser windows (10 to be exact), the window that I wasn't allowed to close without starting over kept blocking the edit box and making it harder to complete tasks, didn't show me how to get rid of that annoying red box up top, some of the sections were too drawn out with multiple clicks.

- What I liked
...Quick to provide information, not stuffed down your throat, engaging.
- What I didn't like
...Missed out some core features, told you to copy and paste images etc from the box instead of finding them, and doesn't teach how to type the shortcuts. Didn't teach how to check new notifications etc.
- What I wanted more of
...Basically, the above.
- What was unnecessary
...None.
- Any other thoughts you want to share
...This was great and informative, thanks! I've been editing anonymously for a while so I new most of this, but it was still helpful.

Possibly an added Note on embedded file formats v. uploaded image file formats...I think many Users will see a 'short' file format that might be confusing if the User isn't aware of the difference. This clarification might be helpful since both options are available.
