Week 5/Add a Citation and Contribute to One Article/DetongChe

I choose an artist who comes from Japan, I have researched him when I take graphic design classes. Here's the article link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takashi_Murakami, and I added the citation link is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animation. Since the "Animation Industry" did not have a good explanation in the article, so I added a sentence to the article.

Week 5 / Add a Citation and Contribute to One Article / Nectaros

In this section, for the article [[Virtual reality sickness]] I contributed and cited more recent research in the section "Individual differences in susceptibility." Link to diff [1]. I learned that looking at the recency of the research is important for determining notability. There seems quite a bit of inconsistency in agreement among researchers as to whether gender/sex is a clear factor in the susceptibility of virtual reality sickness and the article did not represent that disagreement prior to my edit.

Nectaros (talk) 17:44, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Week 6/Add a citation and contribute to one more article/Forza spurs

The article I assigned to myself this week is the article introducing Matt Bonner, who is a former NBA player from Canada. The following is the link to the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Bonner. Besides, here is the link to differ: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Matt_Bonner&diff=983417541&oldid=980432574. For this article, I added a citation to provide the source of some specific statistics listed in the article to better display Bonner's career development. From this process, I have learned that some common knowlege for you can be uncommon for other readers. For example, as a basketball fan, I am familiar with a certain definition discussed in an article related to basketball, but others are highly likely to get in touch with this word for the first time, so we need to expalin it.Forza spurs (talk) 03:36, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Week6 / Add a Citation and Contribute to One Article / Shangyingsun

In this week, I add a citation on article "TikTok", which is a very hot topic in this period, I found that the article talked a lot "ByteDance", but they didn't show the link or citation about it. so I add this citation on it. I think it will help more people who don't know the "ByteDance" to understand what it is. From those add citation works, I found I paying more and more attention to details, and pay attention to some hot topics or articles, at the same times, I want to help these articles to be more perfect, give more information, and let more people know more things here is the diff: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=TikTok&diff=prev&oldid=983472709 Shangyingsun (talk) 12:35, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Link to the comparison: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=GeForce_30_series&type=revision&diff=984208782&oldid=983567181 In this article, it describes the launch of a new tech product that is extremely popular among the consumers. People are trying their best to get as much information about inventory status as possible. I updated some information regarding the third party sales partners so that everyone knows where to buy it. Although the citation comes from a forum, it's an official announcement made by an NVIDIA sales department representative on the official website forum and the wording is trustworthy.Martinmadison (talk) 21:00, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Martinmadison, This citation is based on the manufacturer's own claims. Can you find an external news or industry source to add in addition to further substantiate this claim and then ping me again here? FULBERT (talk) 14:29, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Week 7/ Contribute to One More Article/ ShawnBoom

The article I chose this week is "COVID-19 pandemic in New York City". I went to the supermarket and buy something I can't purchase from the online store today and there are so many crowds outside on the street and in the market, I mean everywhere, that makes me feel the pandemic is already gone. I also mention that there are too many people who take the street as home, I mean may way more people than before. So I want to know more about the portion of how local government reactions to people who have difficulty living inside of rooms. After reading through a couple of articles, I realized the government does care about everyone from a big picture perspective. And I also cited the couple points of what's government done for each people in the article I chose this week.

For this assignment, I assigned myself the article introducing Roger Mason Jr who was a former NBA player and here is the link to the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Mason_Jr. I added a citation which contains the official statistics of Mason's NBA career to better demonstarte his career development when he was playing for San Antonio Spurs. The following is the link to diff: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Roger_Mason_Jr.&diff=984528685&oldid=984500489.

Week7 / Contribute to One More Article / Ywrhea

1.Summary: Gustave Le Bon illustrated how individuals are influenced by the ideas and emotions spread by the crowd. When people have the same psychological appeal, it is possible to form a group. When individuals form a group, they will have the psychological characteristics of mental decline, impulsiveness, and self-confidence. I changed three references to this article. Since this is an introduction to Gustave Le Bon's theory, the original text written by Gustave Le Bon will be more convincing than quoting others' summary of his theory. Therefore, I use the original sources rather than secondary sources in this article.

2.The link to difference is https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/985326335

3. After this process, I think crowd psychology is a complex system theory, and its knowledge is very important for senior managers. Even for ordinary people, we have to be a little wary of public opinion in our daily lives, because public opinion does not always represent rationality, and sometimes it may be irresponsible. Ywrhea (talk) 09:31, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ywrhea, Beyond adding a citation alone, make sure to provide a sentence or two to express your contribution in context (which the citation will support) to demonstrate how it adds to the knowledge in the article. Citations alone do not add value. Please add a sentence or two to explain what the citation adds and the ping me again here when done. FULBERT (talk) 19:31, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Link to the first article: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Norilsk&type=revision&diff=985397673&oldid=985178183

In this article, it mentions the impact of industrial pollution on residents’ life expectancy. While it only says that the local life expectancy is ten years below the average of Russia, I added the life expectancy of Russia in number and another comparison against the life expectancy of the U.S.

Link to the second article: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=IFRS_17&type=revision&diff=985399631&oldid=970496983

In this article, it talks about a new accounting standard designated for insurance companies. It does not have a great amount of details regarding the scope of application of the IFRS 17. More specifically, what kind of insurance and reinsurance contracts would be applicable for the new standard. The report from Deloitte illustrated the details and list of applicable contracts under the new standard. Martinmadison (talk) 19:00, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Week7 / Contribute to One More Article / ASCXX

This is the link to the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diversity_training#Purported_benefits

This is the link to the diff page: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Diversity_training&diff=985445963&oldid=982020439

This week I edited an article named "Diversity training", I edited the section purported benefits. The whole purported benefits section talked about the negative sides of diversity training however, it did not mention any benefit of it. I think adding one benefit of the diversity training could further support its description.--ASCXX (talk) 00:42, 26 October 2020 (UTC) FULBERT[reply]

Week 7/ Add a Citation / 八路军被服厂李厂长

This week I've added one of my high quality resources in the article of blockchain. In the article, where the smart contract only provide simple definition of it, so I believe adding some explanations would provide comprehensive understanding of the phrase. Here is the link for the differences https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Blockchain&type=revision&diff=985545998&oldid=985545619. What I've got from this week is that helps me to read and understand the article that both work for my assignment and FRM exams. Good for me.--八路军被服厂李厂长 (talk) 16:05, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the link to difference: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=History_of_art_criticism&type=revision&diff=985676181&oldid=984303002 I learned to use a different library source to find more high quality resources which helps me a lot on my paper. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Muzizimu (talk • contribs) 08:37, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Week 8/ Add Citations to 2 Articles/ Shawnboom

There are two articles we have to choose from this week. The first article is "Youth Suicide", why I chose this topic is after watching the social dilemma through Netflix. In the social dilemma, it talks a lot about the bad effect on people by AI and I am focused on the youth or adolescents part, so I searched this article want to know more and shows a lot of reason make adolescents want to suicide except the affection of cyber, so I add one point in this article. And here is the difference link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Youth_suicide&type=revision&diff=985768826&oldid=980029687 Here is the second article I chose "Regulation of artificial intelligence", why I chose this topic is continued above, I really want to know the law, rules, and regulation of AI and I found seems like they really want to make AI more reliable but it's really hard to summarize and define what crimes are brought by AI. So I add my short opinion, here is the difference link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Regulation_of_artificial_intelligence&type=revision&diff=985775059&oldid=985723868 --ShawnBoom (talk) 21:53, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
