Dr Strangelove or: How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Wikipedia
[edit]I think these last two parts of the training really helped me understand both how Wikipedia works and how it works effectively. I am surprised how easy it is to edit. Once you get the Wiki syntax down it’s really quite simple. Granted the training modules’ step-by-step process seemed too easy but then I went to my own Sandbox page and fooled around a little. I had to call on assistance from the Help section a couple times but it was not hard at all. Secondly Wikipedia has established an environment for its editors that appear to be centered on the same goal. The Talk pages are essential for allowing discussions about information and/or changes to articles to eliminate any hostilities between editors. They can cast votes on a topic, get feedback about edits, and even find out why their posts may not meet expectations. This Wikipedian society is civil, efficient, and united in their quest to build this virtual encyclopedia. Just don’t forget their motto: Be bold[1] and cite[2] often!
