Talk page templates

Hello Adam. I noticed a curious thing regarding Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/Boston University/ASL Structure (Spring 2017). The students added the appropriate talk page template to all the existing articles they edited, but none of the new ones (Machine translation of sign languages, Language deprivation in deaf and hard of hearing children, Co-enrollment). Any idea why that might be? – Joe (talk) 12:46, 17 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Joe Roe. I'm not sure. I'll point one of our content experts to it. It could be that some students forget to assign themselves an article on the dashboard, which is what will add the template to the talk page. If they don't assign it to themselves or post it on the talk page manually, it won't show up. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:17, 17 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Shalor (Wiki Ed): can you take a look at the above? Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:24, 17 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm kind of baffled as well. The only thing I can see is that one of the articles (co-enrollment) was added to the Dashboard as Co-Enrollment, so maybe the capitalization messed with it a little? It also may be that since these articles didn't exist when the students assigned them to themselves, the dashboard didn't add anything to the article. Maybe the thing that adds the template only runs once, when the student assigns themselves the article(s)? Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:01, 17 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Follow up on student edit

I noticed your welcome message on Minaseoo's talk page, so I'm hoping that you can be of help. An edit that he did on 2016 November 18‎ at 21:24, on the Indigenous peoples in Brazil page has a confusing parenthetical acronym that isn't explained. I just posted a note on his talk page, but as he hasn't been active since that edit, I'm afraid it won't do any good. If you could take a look and see what could be done, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks! WesT (talk) 22:25, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
