Hi Professor, I did some edit in article Management information system and here is the record of edit history https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Management_information_system&type=revision&diff=826622817&oldid=825407102. The first change is avoiding the word "may" gives an assurance that the author is confident of whatever he or she is writing. Another change was to rectify the second sentence in the second paragraph. It was not necessary to use the words "specifically". The third change was to the management section. To avoid repetitive words, I wrote the first sentence as follows "There are different areas of concentration with varying duties and responsibilities in information system managers. "Charlene 1022 (talk) 04:08, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
- I was not able to see the citation you added to the article. Can you reconfirm it was saved, Charlene 1022? FULBERT (talk) 16:16, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
- Hi professor, I only rectified the grammar in the second sentence of the first paragraph, another change was second sentence in the second paragraph. The third change was to the management section, I wrote the first sentence as follows "There are different areas of concentration with varying duties and responsibilities in information system...". That's why I did not add citation, the requirement of week 3 is thinking about ways to improve the language, clarity, grammar, spelling, etc. Then, make the appropriate changes.Charlene 1022 (talk) 17:53, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

Week 4 Assignment from Qianyue
Hi Professor, I did some changes in this article Health technology. Here is the record of edit history https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Health_technology&type=revision&diff=826625523&oldid=825209933. I inserted one citation in this article, the doi is 10.1177/102490790200900410. The article does not discuss in details the negative impacts that are associated with medical technology. Although the article states that medical technology can have ethical and social impacts on health care, it does not discuss the impacts in details. It needs to pinpoint the exact social and ethical issues related to technology. It is important to discuss or highlight a few examples of social and ethical impacts that technology may impose on health care. Therefore, I would add the following drawbacks under medical technology section. Charlene 1022 (talk) 04:28, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
- Please go back into the article, click edit on the section, right click on the reference to Edit it, and then add the rest of the information for the article (authors, journal, volume, etc.) and ping me when done. It is not a complete citation as listed, Charlene 1022. FULBERT (talk) 16:15, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
- Good afternoon professor, I have done with the rest of information of the citation in the reference list 7. Charlene 1022 (talk) 19:43, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
- Got it, Charlene 1022. Great edits! FULBERT (talk) 15:22, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Week 3 Assignment from Xiaoya Zhang
Hi Professor, I made some change in the article Population ageing. Here is the record of my edition. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population_ageing&diff=prev&oldid=827160006 I only made some small changes that I think may make the article more clear or more coherent. By the way, I am not sure whether there are any differences between ageing and aging. It feels like they are the same, so I did not change anything related to this word though they are not coherent.XiaoyaZ (talk) 03:16, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
- Great edits you identified XiaoyaZ. --- FULBERT (talk) 19:47, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
Week3 Check in from Enzhuang Wang
Hi, professor. I made some changes for this article Alternative names for Northern Ireland. This is my editing record https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alternative_names_for_Northern_Ireland&type=revision&diff=827299818&oldid=827299433 First one I change is " the Ulster Unionist Party, the University of Ulster, BBC Radio Ulster" to "the Ulster Unionist Party, the University of Ulster, and theBBC Radio Ulster." Second one is "how best to respond to" to " how best it was to respond to "
Beside I also restructured it that I moved a paragraph which author used in Others Names section to Unionist-associated names section. Because that paragraph is to talk about the name of Republic of Ireland. OliverWang (talk) 23:11, 23 February 2018 (UTC)Oliver Wang
- Thanks for the edit updates, OliverWang. Fine. --- FULBERT (talk) 21:38, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

Welcome template
This looks like it could be pretty helpful! I showed this to Ian as well and we have a few notes - you want to avoid quotation marks unless you're using a direct quote. Also, some of the nitty gritty with the coding for this will likely have to take place in source mode, as some things like signatures don't show up properly in VisualEditor. The Template WikiProject would be a good place to check out on that end, as I'm not as familiar with that end and this would likely fall under their banner since the welcome message does serve as a template of sorts to some extent. I think that it's awesome that you're interested in this! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:15, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
- Many thanks, Shalor (Wiki Ed). I still have some testing to do, though am glad you think the concept is useful! --- FULBERT (talk) 01:41, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

Week 3 check-in message from Qi
Hi professor, I have assigned myself the article Virtual prototyping. In this article, I changed several sentence structure issues to make it more clear. Please check the changes. Also, I noticed that the original article linked by the reference for NCE in examples (reference #11) is missing. I could not find any other resource to support it. Should I delete it? Shine821 (talk) 19:46, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

- Yes, I have tried FULBERT. The original file is missing, and I could not find archive file in the Machine Design and Google.Shine821 (talk) 20:07, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Please restate in your own words and then ping me about it again here, Shine821. --- FULBERT (talk) 21:43, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello Professor, I made some changes to the wiki article called depression.
This is the link of difference between revisions: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Smart_manufacturing&diff=828313139&oldid=820081515
I added more evidence under the section "Open Manufacturing" to support the claim that open manufacturing is a new way to look outside the walls of the factory to find the missing know-how and techniques, together with the most profitable way to take advantage of them.
