Welcome to The Wikipedia Adventure![edit]

Hi Duolanga! We're so happy you wanted to play to learn, as a friendly and fun way to get into our community and mission. I think these links might be helpful to you as you get started.

GREAT job![edit]

Wow, great start! I am impressed with the bio, the show/hide with the badges (I am going to add that to my user page! Neat idea!), and the speed with which you completed the Wiki Adventure!

Neat to include the links to the other projects, too.

If you want to add more, you can browse the "user boxes" and add whatever ones you want.

More soon, and kudos meanwhile! Prof. Eric A. Youngstrom (talk) 14:40, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dr. Youngstrom, thank you so much! I actually found the code for the show/hide buttons on Lizzie Wilson's page. On the HGAPS Wikipedia instructions page, you said to look at others' codes for ideas on structuring pages, which I thought was a great idea to learn past the modules. I'll look into the user boxes soon. Thanks! Lang Duong
You are picking things up really quickly! I see that you added the UNC userbox already, along with another show/hide. Spiffy! Prof. Eric A. Youngstrom (talk) 03:17, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Dr. Youngstrom, I have some experience in HTML and Typescript coding, so I'm very happy to be putting those skills to use! I may have gotten carried away with the userboxes, but I really enjoyed looking through Wikipedia's options. I also figured out how to change the colors of the collapsible boxes, which was a major victory considering I spent about 30 minutes on that (yikes).

Very much looking forward to working with you in 2021! I enjoyed perusing your updated UserPage, and discovered several other shared interests that will be fun to talk about! (Photography, for one -- getting high quality images licensed in a way that they could be used on Wiki is a new personal project for me, and I am trying to recruit my older daughter, who is also a shutterbug!).
You've done a great job working the training that HGAPS laid out, and provided super feedback. I would like to share this as an example of "on-boarding" with some other people, if that is okay with you. Basically, a "this is what we are trying to do, and this is what an A++ looks like" show and tell, with the audience being non-psychology editors (not other students -- I *hate* the vibe of dealing with peer comparisons, and always want to figure out ways to engage and reward the productive without alienating others or creating friction). Let me know if that would be okay, or else I will wait until we have a chance to talk further.
In the meantime, Happy New Year! I am so much looking forward to 2021, and you look like you will be one of the people that make it very special!
Best wishes! Prof. Eric A. Youngstrom (talk) 02:21, 1 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Dr. Youngstrom, that sounds fantastic! Photography is a hobby of mine and I would love to help take pictures for HGAPS' Wiki! I also have a friend in MEJO who specializes in photojournalism who I can always turn to for tips on pictures, as well. Maybe I could work with your daughter in the future on this - I'd love to collaborate with her!
Thank you so much, I have thoroughly enjoyed going through the training and learning more about HTML coding. I actually may have to get my notes/feedback to you on Sunday instead of today. I'm trying to take my time to get through each of the training modules and take good notes. I would also love for you to use my page as an example for other editors - it's always so refreshing to hear a professor promoting positivity among students rather than competition (especially within the STEM realm).
Happy New Year, Dr. Youngstrom! I am so, if not more, thrilled to be working with you this year. Again, thank you for allowing me the opportunity to work alongside you this semester and I look forward to getting to know you! Duolanga (talk) 02:22, 2 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
