Restoring this article -- & keeping it restored[edit]

Reasons for undeletion[edit]

I note from the deletion/undeletion record that this article has been AfC in the past for the following reasons:

it looks too much like a Neologism
it lacks evidence of substantial use and press coverage (i.e. "strong evidence in independent, reliable, published sources")
it needs more than a link to a site specifically intended to promote the neologism itself
the term is too new, used by only a handful of people.

So in our restoration attempts, we would be well advised to address these points.

Integrating this article with others in WP[edit]

This term is referred to in the Transliteracy article (see section Relationship to other terms). The article mentions "media and information literacy", "information literacy", "digital literacy", "multiliteracies" and "metaliteracy". Besides the transliteracy entry itself, information, digital, & multiliteracies all merit an entry of their own.

Proposed structure of the article[edit]

The article currently includes the following content sections: 1 History 2 Usage

Borrowing ideas from other literacy entries, we could also add some/none/all? of the following:

Academic and pedagogical concepts
Applications of metaliteracy (e.g. to education, to libraries)
Metaliteracy skills
Relationship to other terms

I like the health literacy page as an example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_literacy PublicHealthPhD (talk) 14:17, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, PublicHealthPhD, the Health literacy page is very well done. The concept of health literacy has been around a lot longer than metaliteracy so I doubt that we'd be able to write as extensive an article here. However, the quality of writing & the thoroughness of the Health literacy page is certainly something we might try to emulate! Redwidgeon (talk) 21:46, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jotting down some notes re other authors & expanded examples of metaliteracy 'usage' (vs 'mention' only)[edit]

From UNESCO, 2013: Conceptual Relationship of Information Literacy and Media Literacy in Knowledge Societies. Check out Tony Carbo's contribution: Consideration within the broader mediacy and metaliteracy framework. Last paragraph of this submission alludes to the value of a "new paradigm" (metaliteracy, described in previous paras.); last sentence: "This suggests an important role for UNESCO in bringing together both experts and other individuals from different cultures, age groups and disciplines to shape a true Metaliteracy program to improve the quality of life for all."

This paper: (click for abstract) Providing an Environment for Authentic Learning Experiences lists metaliteracy as a 'key term' for the article. Worth exploring further?? (Matthew Treskon (Loyola Notre Dame Library, USA); Source Title: Emerging Trends and Impacts of the Internet of Things in Libraries; Copyright: © 2020)

This paper (click for abstract) Information Literacy in Virtual Environments: Changing Needs of P-12 Learners also mentions metaliteracy as the (first in the list) 'key term'. (Valerie J. Hill; Source Title: Handbook of Research on Gaming Trends in P-12 Education. Copyright: © 2016

This paper (click for full paper) International good practice in information literacy education mentions metaliteracy as recent holistic model. (Robinson, L. and Bawden, D. (2018): International good practice in information literacy education. Knjižnica : Revija za Področje Bibliotekarstva in Informacijske Znanosti, 62(1-2), pp. 169-185.)

This paper (click for full paper) Facilitation of information literacy through a multilingual MOOC considering cultural aspects uses metaliteracy as source for building the content framework of a MOOC on information literacy. (Dreisiebner, S., Polzer, A.K., Robinson, L., Libbrecht, P., Boté-Vericad, J.-J., Urbano, C., Mandl, T., Vilar, P., Žumer, M., Juric, M., Pehar, F. and Stričević, I.

Deja, M. and Rak, D. (2019), "Knowledge management and academic information behaviour: A preliminary study of metaliteracy among junior faculty staff in the digital environment", Aslib Journal of Information Management, Vol. 71 No. 4, pp. 480-499. https://doi.org/10.1108/AJIM-09-2018-0219 (available in EBSCOhost). Abstract:
- Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of metaliteracy on collaborative and individual information behaviour (IB) among academic staff. The goal is to observe the impact of these competencies on knowledge management (KM) and IB in research tasks connected with the humanities and social sciences. Design/methodology/approach: This paper presents an implementation of two combined frameworks into a study on the IB of academics: metacompetencies described by Mackey and Jacobson in the metaliteracy model and Burke's triple-A model. By using the Dervin's micro-moment time-line interview framework, authors try to observe the state of development of information literacy and other supportive competencies among younger lecturers and researchers. Findings: Scientists develop patterns of collaborative behaviour based on seven metaliteracy areas in KM. Research limitations/implications: The study did not include students and other groups related to the academic environment. Their involvement in information processes is a very wide issue and should be the subject of a separate article. Originality/value: The paper contributes to research development in the area of information literacy as a KM efficiency factor. IB in this paper is a broad concept, in which the development of metaliteracy is an important aspect of lecturers' and researchers' KM and collaboration skills.

Re: fake news
- Current comment reads: Metaliteracy was cited as being an effective tool to fight fake news, especially in the context of the 2016 United States presidential election.
- Proposed change: move this comment into 'Metaliteracy in education' & reframe; e.g. Metaliteracy skills, especially the ability to consider context and evaluate information in social media, has been proposed as an effective tool to fight fake news. (not sure whether this needs the explicit reference to 2016 US election or not)

Re: definition of Information literacy: To create this def. I have summarized definitions in the Information literacy article. Sections I used were based on references 1-6 in this article. Can anybody tell me: must I also ref. these sources or is it enough to indicate the definition comes from the WP article??

Re: referring back to definition of metaliteracy in Wikidictionary: the Wikidictionary definition is pretty lame "The quality of being metaliterate." Nice to see there's *something* in WD but no sense linking to this unless it's fleshed out a bit. (Another little project for somebody!)

a new draft![edit]

Congrats & kudos to the Global class of Intercultural Perspectives on Information Literacy and Metaliteracy! The new draft looks good & it's a huge improvement over previous drafts. Fingers crossed that the article is approved this time. Redwidgeon (talk) 22:43, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
