The
Adventure



Welcome to the Interstellar Lounge and Cafe!


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. 😎-----😇

Got help

Need help with something in The Wikipedia Adventure?

What to do next

Tips for feedback

Tell us what you liked about it, where we could improve, and what you learned

How you can help
  • Play the game all the way through. Do you get stuck anywhere? Is anything unclear?
  • Finish the game if you only played a few missions: Give some attention to missions 5-7 (which have been tested much less)
  • Start over fresh with a new account: Like User:OcaasiTWA17 (these are legitimate alternate testing accounts and are not considered sockpuppets)
  • Try a different browser: If you used Safari, try Firefox (or Chrome, Internet Explorer, Opera...)
  • Show the game to a friend or family member to see how they like it and if they get stuck anywhere
In your feedback, please include any of your thoughts on
  • text instructions within the game
  • graphic placement
  • bugs in the tour mechanics
  • your web browser
  • your screen resolution
  • which step of the tour you were on if something didn't work (see the step= in the url)
  • what you liked
  • what you didn't like
  • what you think would work better
  • your thoughts on the design: the theme, the guide, the characters, the colors, the images, the sounds
known bugs
  • Lingering Dialog Boxes: If you leave the tour without finishing, the guider dialog boxes will follow you until you [x] out of them (this is a Guided Tours issue generally and there's no easy fix) Example (phab:T122891)
  • Vector Only: If you're using monobook or modern etc., the layout won't work. Almost all new editors will be using Vector, so this is a known, acceptable trade-off (phab:T122891)
  • Mobile and Tablet Formatting Fails: While tested for most modern desktop and laptop browsers, the game is not configured to work properly on tablets and other smaller devices. It may, but we'd be getting lucky. (phab:T122892)
  • Doesn't scale to my preference of window size or scale symmetrically (ctrl 0/-/+). FF 25. (@start) (T122893)
  • There's no way to jump ahead if you are repeating steps or trying to get back to where you left off mid-mission. (phab:T122895)
  • The guided tour for edit summary dialog sometimes appears in weird places or isn't clickable for the VisualEditor version of the adventure (T368226)
  • "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" overlapping on some background pages Wikipedia:TWA/Background/3 (T365219)

Loved the Wikipedia Adventure

Feedback

What I liked
The friendly manner in which instructions were presented.

...

What I didn't like
Having to do the same thing more than three times, once you've hyperlinked thrice you've mastered it.

...

What I wanted more of
Stats, exactly what could be improved.

...

What was unnecessary
Can't think of anything, all the main points of Wikipedia were properly covered.

...

Any other thoughts you want to share
Was a tad glitchy, had to restart because of a loop. Specifically, it got stuck on leaving a summary saying "Thoughts on a reliable source."

Feedback

What I liked

...What I liked was getting the hang of wikitext environment. Although there is VisualEditor which seems easier, I wanted to become familiar with the older version as well, the way that I liked to become familiar with analogue camera before learning how to work with digital camera.

What I didn't like

...What I didn't like was the ways in which I copied and pasted everything rather than generating some information from my own.

What I wanted more of

...I wanted to work more on the wikilinks, since there are articles which appear in diffrent names from the original article that Wikipedians write.

What was unnecessary

...

Any other thoughts you want to share

...Overall, it was fanstastic, and I learned many things.
