Week3 / Copyedit an Article / lipute17

I perform some minor gramma modifications towards the article "backpropagation" to make it more easy to read and understand.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Backpropagation&type=revision&diff=982194306&oldid=976774279

I have learned that for scientific articles, it is very important to not only let the material very precise, but also make it readable to people. It is very necessary to make the concept straight forward that even people without background knowledge can also understand. Lipute17 (talk) 22:25, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Lipute17, Please remember to sign each of your posts using four tilde characters ~~~~ at the end. Do this as a reply and then ping me here, and then I will take a look at it and reply. --FULBERT (talk) 22:16, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

Lipute17, Overall ok, but watch your spelling when you make edits. Done. FULBERT (talk) 17:45, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 5 / Add a Citation and Contribute to One Article / lipute17

The article I assigned myself this week is Frontier Communication, a large telecommunication company that recently just file for bankruptcy. I notice that the article hardly updated the information for the bankruptcy, so I added some more information to the page.

The diff link : https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Frontier_Communications&diff=982730527&oldid=980106590

I feel very good in contribute to the article to make it up to date. I believe the process is very meaningful because the society is changing rapidly, Old information may be inaccurate over night. It is very necessary to update the message on wiki to prevent misleading. Lipute17 (talk) 23:58, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Lipute17, Nice addition. Done. FULBERT (talk) 17:51, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

In the process of evaluation, I realized that the articles in the Wiki also have many errors and need to be corrected. I felt very satisfied after adding a citation in the article.Rc4230 (talk) 16:05, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Rc4230, This is fine, though you did not follow this week's assignment for how to write up an evaluation of an article. OK for now. Done. FULBERT (talk) 18:17, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

And this is the link of the difference: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=DiDi&type=revision&diff=982931868&oldid=982929425. I capitalize "d" to keep consistency. In this process, I have learned that every small error correction will make the article more perfect.Rc4230 (talk) 07:35, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Rc4230, Good catch. Done. FULBERT (talk) 18:20, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 4 / Add a Citation to One Article / Rc4230

Since the topic of my homework is related to shared bicycles, so I chose the article introducing bicycle-sharing. In the history part, I think the article lacks sufficient citations to support, so I added a citation to make the article more credible. The difference link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bicycle-sharing_system&type=revision&diff=982938353&oldid=978399019.

In this process, I learned that adding citations can make the article more accurate and credible.Rc4230 (talk) 08:34, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Rc4230, Nice citation added. Done. FULBERT (talk) 18:21, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 5 / Add a Citation and Contribute to One Article / Rc4230

Since I am interested in big data technology, I chose an article talking about big data. In the characteristics part, I think the explanation of the volume of big data needs to be more specific, so I add a sentence to explain the size of big data. The difference link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Big_data&type=revision&diff=982941579&oldid=982644985 Even though I only added one sentence, I am still happy for my contribution.Rc4230 (talk) 09:10, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 1 / Create a Wikipedia Account / Nectaros

In this first week assignment, I created an account and learned basic navigation of Wikipedia. Much of the tutorial information was new to me. I look forward to editing pages in this class and contributing to the research community here on Wikipedia.

Nectaros (talk) 23:10, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Nectaros, Welcome to Wikipedia! Done with Week 1. FULBERT (talk) 18:32, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Nectaros

Week 3/Copyedit an Article/DetongChe

Here's the article I copyedited: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lego, and this is difference between the previous version and the current one: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lego&type=revision&diff=982901146&oldid=980285594. I have changed the unit for this sentence: "Other records include a 34-metre (112 ft) tower and a 4 km (2.5 mi) railway." because there are two numbers in one sentence, I think the unit should match with both. I have learned number is the best way to let review have a good understanding and be careful to use number. DetongChe (talk) 02:11, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

DetongChe, Good edit. Current. FULBERT (talk) 18:41, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 3 / Copyedit an Article / ShawnBoom

It studies how consumers choose products and how to combine these products with personal sustainable consumption goals.--ShawnBoom (talk) 02:57, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

ShawnBoom, Good edits. Done. FULBERT (talk) 18:47, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Week2/ Evaluate Article/ Martinmadison

I found an article talks about the Railway transit system and it primarily focuses on MTR, one of the most successful transit systems in the world. It's famous for its reliability and financial performance. In the part that talks about the revenue, the original article only talks about the investment from property holding. However, its ticket revenue also contributes a lot and has some great statistics compared to transit systems elsewhere.

This is the link to the article evaluation itself. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Martinmadison/Evaluate_an_Article

This is the link to the difference of talk page https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ARail_transport_in_Hong_Kong&type=revision&diff=983005590&oldid=980320299

The process is much more complicated than I expected. It's more like a mini-research which involves a couple of steps: reading through current articles, doing research on the subject itself, and determine the gap of information. Martinmadison (talk) 18:03, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Martinmadison, Please assign yourself this article in the Wiki Edu Dashboard and then ping me here. I will then take a look at it and reply. FULBERT (talk) 19:07, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
Martinmadison, I reviewed it per your comment below. This is now fine. Current. FULBERT (talk) 19:49, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Discussions
    • Open request for adminship: MsynABot
    • Closed request for adminship: Fuzheado (successful)
  • Tool of the week
    • OD2WD automatically converts CSV files from Open Data portals into QuickStatements for Wikidata republishing. Demo video
  • Development
    • The RFC to semi-protect all property pages has been implemented, all properties now require the “autoconfirmed” right to edit (T254280)
    • Working on enabling JSON dumps for Lexemes (phab:T220883)
    • Finishing preventing blocked users from making us skip QIDs (phab:T232620)
    • Continuing work on the Wikibase Manifest extension that allows toolbuilders to easily access configurations of a specific Wikibase instance so it is easier for them to make their tools work with not just Wikidata but also other Wikibase instances
    • Started analyzing what we consider a mismatch for our work around checking Wikidata's data against other databases
    • Continued work on the Query Builder to get it to create the first very simple query. It can do that now but not yet visualize the result.

You can see all open tickets related to Wikidata here. If you want to help, you can also have a look at the tasks needing a volunteer.

Week 4 / Adding contents and a citation to the article/ Martinmadison

Link to the diff: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Long-Term_Capital_Management&type=revision&diff=983018459&oldid=982572714

Summary of what I added: This part talked about why Long Term Capital Management failed even though they hired the best scientists to build the perfect model. The model is very ideal and powerful to solve problems, but it's not intelligent enough to recognize random or extreme events such as the financial crises. Also, LTCM was biased when selecting a data sample for the modeling work. Those two reasons illustrate how miscalculation being part of the reasons they failed.

What I learned: This assignment is more complicated compared to previous ones. Not only I needed to do research on the topic and provide good sources and citations, but also I need to double-check if there is already similar content available here or if there is a conflict. Overall it's a good practice. Martinmadison (talk) 19:34, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Martinmadison, Good edit. Current. FULBERT (talk) 22:06, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 5/ Add a citation to article/ Martinmadison

Link to the diff: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Setback_%28architecture%29&type=revision&diff=983027883&oldid=968159182

The article talks about the setback policy in urban planning. I added a term called base height which is a crucial part of the policy based on the Zoning Glossary provided by the Department of City Planning (NYC). With the idea of base height, viewers can better understand the setback policy and how it works. Martinmadison (talk) 20:27, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Martinmadison, Nice edit as well. Current. FULBERT (talk) 22:07, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

week5/add a citation/soymilkp20

I add a citation to the article VitaminB. The article i found in NYU library. I cit it as it in the source aspect. Here is the Link:differ

I made a cup of changes, cause i had trouble of citing the article, but i figured it out eventually. Soymilkp20 (talk) 21:26, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Soymilkp20, Your edit was reverted, and as you did not add a sentence or two to explain, this is fine. Please add a sentence or two and another source to an article. Ping me when done. FULBERT (talk) 22:11, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 1/ Introduction/ LaurenZhou0509

Hi guys! This is Lauren Zhou. I am happy to meet you guys here in Wikipedia. Before came to NYC, I have spent several years in Chicago. I finished my undergraduate in UIUC. It is a beautiful place with interesting people. NYC is different from Chicago; it is busier but I enjoy the new environment. This is my second semester in NYU and hopefully we will spend a good time together! I started to use Wiki a long time ago but this is the first time I become an editor. The role changing makes me feel exited. Enjoy! — Preceding unsigned comment added by LaurenZhou0509 (talk • contribs) 00:48, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Please do the same with your other posts and reply to me on each one to review. FULBERT (talk) 22:13, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 4 / Add a Citation to One Article / Bbbzhu

The article I edited this week is Augmented Reality. I included a citation to one of the arguments already in the article to support it. It is about the use of augmented reality in museums and art galleries. Here's the difference [link].
I learned about the importance of using quality sources and what counts as a quality source. Also, how to paraphrase the source to be inserted as a reference to a Wikipedia article. --Bbbzhu (talk) 04:17, 4 October 2020 (UTC)

Bbbzhu, Please assign yourself this article in the Wiki Edu Dashboard and then ping me here. I will then take a look at it and reply. FULBERT (talk) 22:20, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

Bbbzhu, Great. Nice edit. Current. FULBERT (talk) 00:02, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 5 / Add a Citation and Contribute to One Article / Bbbzhu

This week I edited the playtest page. Here's the difference [[1]]. I included the role of playtesting in the process of video game development. Also included a very comprehensive systematic review of the subject as the citation, in case readers would like to know more. I found that although the concept is similar, the language to capture a concept can be different (a variant or slang) and result in different Wikipedia pages. Thus, making sure all variants are up to date and can be related to each other is important. --Bbbzhu (talk) 01:31, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Bbbzhu, Nice edit. Current. FULBERT (talk) 00:03, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 5 / Add a Citation and Contribute to One Article / 燕京赵大知识分子

I added a citation to the article to better explain the definition and background of the theory of undervalued stock. The citation from Investopedia explains it well to readers with both financial and non-financial backgrounds.

Here is the difference link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Undervalued_stock&type=revision&diff=982602029&oldid=944827142

Here is the article link： https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undervalued_stock

I learned that it is useful to add a citation to a concept's definition no matter if the author is familiar with it. This way readers can extend their reading and connect to the explanation the author makes. 燕京赵大知识分子 (talk) 05:08, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

燕京赵大知识分子, OK citation, though you did not add anything else of content to this article, which was part of the assignment, "lso include a sentence or two to express your contribution in context and demonstrate how it adds to the knowledge in the article." Please add and ping me here and I will review. FULBERT (talk) 16:40, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
FULBERT, I have added the content for explaining the value of the undervalued stock compared with the true market value, hopefully reader can gain more insight about this. 燕京赵大知识分子 (talk) 12:37, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
燕京赵大知识分子, Good enough. Current. FULBERT (talk) 00:05, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Week 4 / Add a Citation to One Article / Lipute17

The article I viewed this week is "Denial-of-service attack", which is a form of cyber attack that is widely performed nowadays. I notice that a very popular used defense technique "DDS" do not have any references, so I dig in and added some citations.

The link to my modification is:https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Denial-of-service_attack&diff=982727684&oldid=982658401

From this week's material I learned how to add reference into articles. Reference is very essential because it increase the creditability of the article and makes it more convincing.Lipute17 (talk) 23:30, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Lipute17, I undid your change as you did not use a high quality source for your edit, you used a company page. Please find a high quality source for your claim and re-add. Ping me here when done. FULBERT (talk) 17:50, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
FULBERT,Sorry for that, I used another source this time. here is my new link. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Denial-of-service_attack&diff=983040792&oldid=983005206. Lipute17 (talk) 21:59, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
Lipute17, I would ordinarily revert this add as I am not convinced this is a reliable source, but ok for now. Current. FULBERT (talk) 00:08, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Week4 / Add a citation to one Article / Shangyingsun

The article that I chose is Arizona State University, this is my undergraduate school. I saw the article showed "This article contains content that is written like an advertisement.

Week 5 / Add a Citation and Contribute to One Article / 八路军被服厂李厂长

This week, I had review my studies about option market, just curiosity about what does the wiki reviews on call options. So I find this article and add one great resource to the page. This is a book wrote by an expert and he provide insights on the reality of the financial market, for those who had interests to the option market. I hope they can find this book to read for more details.

Here is the link to the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_option#Price_of_options Here is the link to the difference https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Call_option&type=revision&diff=982889183&oldid=972093745

What I learned from this week is that wiki sometimes not provide quality resources for reader to read, so if anyone want to quote form Wiki, I would suggest you quote form wiki's reference, and it is more useful.--八路军被服厂李厂长 (talk) 00:26, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

In the subsection that talks about a new concept called "single rail 12 V only", the article pointed out the benefit of eliminating cross-road interruption but forgot to cite other research results to support the statement. Wheater in the Wiki article or other papers, a key statement should always be equipped with supporting evidence to convince the reader about the idea.

Week 2 / Evaluation Article / LaurenZhou0509

1. I learned how to evaluate an article through this week's task.

Week 3/ Copyedit to the Article / LaurenZhou0509

This week I edited the article "Case Closed: The Fourteenth Target". I added the "Staff" section to the article since staff is a key factor to an introduction page of a film. I also added the lyrics to the theme song. As a new editor, I feel it is important to have a critical view of the article. To find out what is missing and what should be improved. Here is the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Case_Closed:_The_Fourteenth_Target Here is the difference link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Case_Closed:_The_Fourteenth_Target&diff=prev&oldid=983069897 — Preceding unsigned comment added by LaurenZhou0509 (talk • contribs) 02:07, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Week4/Adding a citation to an article/Soymilkp20

For this week i add a source to an article(Lotion), it was about parabens. Also a small change of the article, i remove a word to make the sentence more readable. Here is the link:Link

For this assignment, i learned that the sources we provided need to be public, it block me for one because, the source can be only see for NYU students only. That was the reason why we mention in the class, we need public sources. Which i have a question for that, if some sources can been seen only by certain people, what is the point. I know we pay for it, but still. Soymilkp20 (talk) 17:17, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Soymilkp20, I am not sure I understand what you mean about a source being public; sources in Wikipedia articles need to be of high quality. However, this source you added was to a partisan group, and as such I agree with the editor who removed it. Please find another, high-quality source and add to this or a different article. Ping me when done. FULBERT (talk) 19:04, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Again, i edited another article here is the link:History of basketball The reason why i choose to doing that is because some part of the article still needs expansion. Here is what i did:differ

I learn that if the article need more explanation, there is clear note for it, so if people really want to improve the article, that could be a start. That is the reason why i change the article. I want to make a change.

Week 5 / Add a Citation and Contribute to One Article / ywrhea

1. The summary of citation I added is that the contact effects generalize to other groups other than racial or ethnic groups. Under Allport's optimal contact conditions, the contact could lead to greater reduction in prejudice.

In the previous version, the last sentence of this section did not have reference. Therefore, I added specific source for it, which make the information in this article become more convincing. Also, readers will be able to traced the reference if they are interested on it.

2. The link to difference is https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/982912285.

3. There are some contents in Wikipedia do not cite specific references, which cannot readily be traced to their sources. By providing reliable references can make wiki articles more convincing. Therefore, we should be more careful when we edit on Wikipedia. Ywrhea (talk) 03:58, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
