Help us improve the course page system!

Hi Adam! I'm very interested in your opinion and experiences as an online volunteer of Online communities. We prepared some questions to gain deeper insight in user experience. Please let me know, if you could spare some time and help us improve the design of the Wikipedia course page system in regards of the need of all users (instructors, students and volunteers). This won't take too long (about 30 min live) and you are also very welcome to answer questions by mail if preferred so. Please feel free to forward this to anybody who might be interested. Thanks for your support! I'm glad to answer your questions. Sputniza (talk) 14:08, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Ethics for a Free World (Spring 2015)

Hi Ryan -- I notice that one of the students in Education Program:California State University, Channel Islands/Ethics for a Free World (Spring 2015), for which you're a volunteer, chose free will as an article to improve. That's likely to be trouble, because it's a former FA for which every edit is likely to generate intense discussion. (I'm also leaving a message for Adam.) Best regards, Looie496 (talk) 21:54, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

  • Thanks, Looie496. I'll take a look at the course page. While we tell students and professors that FA/GA articles are likely to be a poor fit for student edits, former FAs may not be an automatic red flag. I will watchlist free will and keep an eye out for student edits. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 22:09, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
It's not so much that the article is a former FA, it's more that this particular topic is full of traps for editors who don't have very broad knowledge of the topic. Note that there are 16 talk page archives. Best regards, Looie496 (talk) 22:43, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
Ahh, that's a very good point. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 00:11, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

Question About Uploading Photos

Hi Adam, I would like some clarification on uploading photos to the creative commons. I was debating uploading a photo of the Royal Proclamation of 1763 into our page but its not in the commons. Its available on several different websites so they clearly uploaded but should i assume they have permission? Also are publications, like maps and other treaties, made by government agencies free to upload or again are we suppose to obtain permission?

Thanks for the help APRenaud (talk) 14:34, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi Adam, Thank you for the clarification, uploading photos will probably be one of the last steps we do but its good to have further explanation before we go down this road, and figured better to ask now rather then later. Perhaps in a weeks time i can come up with a more comprehensive list and then you could assist me in determining, or explaining how to determine, whether permission is granted or not.

Again thanks for the quick reply APRenaud (talk) 15:47, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Epic Theatre

Hi Adam,

I saw your notes regarding my poster of Mother Courage and that it is in fact not in the public domain. I am unsure as to how to find images in pucblic domain and/or images that have already been vetted and are inthe "Wiki Commons" Can you help me navigate that? Thank you, Marisela

  • Hi Marisela. I'd be happy to. So for this period in history you have some options, but first we want to make sure we aren't misrepresenting the copyright of that work. You can add {{Db-g7}} to the page (just as you see it there) and someone will delete the image. I'm adding a tag right now to indicate that the license isn't public domain (so it will be deleted eventually either way). Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:40, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
  • The period you are working with is just at the tail end of most copyright expirations dates. Works published before 1923 (so a playbill or poster for a 1910 play) are automatically in the public domain. Works published after 1923 but before 1967 can sometimes be in the public domain if they weren't registered or if their registration lapsed. Navigating this is really difficult. Your best bet is to do one of two things:
    • Talk to a librarian or archivist about this very project! They'll be thrilled to help you find old playbills and determine their copyright status. If you find one that you can verify as in the public domain, you can upload a scan.
    • Take a look at the theater poster category on Wikimedia Commons. All of those are freely licensed (either public domain or in a Creative Commons license compatible with Wikipedia) and some may be useful to you.
  • If you want help researching specific images or help determining what information we need before being confident a file is in the public domain or under a free license, I can do that, but I think you'll find talking to a librarian or archivist at your school more helpful. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:47, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

AnomieBOT "when"

Hi, Adam, I hope you're doing well! I had a question in this Online Communities class where I think I gave the right answer, but since you're listed as our liaison person I wanted to check and see what you thought.

One of our students had an article given some [when?] tags by AnomieBOT. I told her (I seem to remember hearing this somewhere) that if she added the dates she has, even if they are general ("early 1960s"), that should be enough for the bot to not flag the page again. So the student made this change.

However! I can't find documentation backing up my response anywhere. I may have just made it up? Do you have any insight? Thanks! AmandaRR123 (talk) 21:32, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

  • Hi Amanda. First, AnomieBOT is dating the tags placed by another editor (this edit). In that case they seem to be looking for timing for the various claims. You can suggest that they place exact dates where they are known or note larger date ranges for the whole paragraph. I don't think this is something explicitly noted in the manual of style, though I might be wrong, the MOS is large. You can also ask User:JesseRafe if the changes resolve the issues behind the tag if you like. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:57, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
I would've liked each of those sentences to have their own timeframe given. As is, it reads like a "and then, and then, and then..." run on sentence. Didn't revert, but don't think the "early 60s" in the opening is enough to categorize a whole paragraph. Yes, it's clear everything happened then, but not in relation to each other. JesseRafe (talk) 16:03, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
Oh blerg, sorry to you both, I somehow missed User:JesseRafe's original edit. (Although I generally like to believe that Wikipedia bots can entirely think for themselves, easily distinguish between fuzzy dates and weasel words, and even have parties together.) I agree that more specific dates throughout the paragraph would be ideal, so will try to help it move in that direction. AmandaRR123 (talk) 16:13, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

Technical question

Hi Adam,

We having some difficulties understanding what went wrong. We have used the same source information several times but for these two it seems to have issues. We received message on the page that look like this

Cite error: The named reference :2 was invoked but never defined (see the help page).

Cite error: The named reference :0 was invoked but never defined (see the help page).

Could you explain this to us? APRenaud (talk) 15:25, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

  • Hi APRenaud. It looks like you're seeing the interaction of two things. The use of named references (where you specify a reference with <ref name=NewName>Reference stuff...</ref> and invoke it with <ref name=NewName/>) and the visual editor, which can add some autogenerated names to certain references. This edit seems to be when the problems arose. You fixed the copy/pasted reference problems but for some reason what had been reference 2 and reference 1 were lost and replaced with just the names (and not the definitions). I don't know what sandbox they were pulled from, but that's where I would look. Once you find the original references you can replace the parts of the page which say something like <ref name=":2" /> with the original reference. If you find out what the references were supposed to be originally I can swap them in for you, also. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:05, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

History of Western Canada

Hey Adam, I was wondering if I could get your opinion on the title of our article "Marriage à la façon du pays". Do you think that t would be more accessible if we had the title without the accents as well? Or should we keep it the way it is? We appreaciate any advice you could give. Thanks so much. Sydpphillips (talk) 17:21, 4 April 2015 (UTC)

  • Hi Sydpphillips. I think this is a good case for a redirect. Since we are describing a custom and practice which has a specific agreed upon name, that name should be where the reader ends up. Which is to say, don't move the article the title is perfect. But we can give the reader redirects from unaccented titles. You should be able to do that from your account. If you'd like I can show you how, but it's kinda fun to do so I won't take it from you. :) Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:00, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
    • Thank you so much!! It totally worked! And it was super easy! Sydpphillips (talk) 17:41, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
      • Thank you, Sydpphillips, for making the encyclopedia better! I'm really thrilled with the progress you and your class have made on the article. Let me know if you need any other help. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:55, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Reference Condensing

Hi Adam,

You recently condensed our references on the Thomas Scott page and it looks great! Thanks so much! I have been adding more information, mostly from the same source, in our final section. I would love to know how to condense it all. If you have time to explain to me how to do it that would be great. Thanks!

Jamie Lotton (talk) 02:36, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi Jamie Lotton. I'd be happy to help. I'd like to point you to a few ways to handle references, and show you how to do each and why you might choose one or the other.
Named references. In many articles (especially biographies and histories) we will refer to a single journal article or book for different claims thoughout the article. Adding <ref>{{cite book|first=Jane|last=Doe|title=Towards a new History of Something|date=2009}}</ref> each time you make a citation is tough, and it means the reference list is full of redundant visual information for the reader. So if we add <ref name=Doe>{{reference stuff goes here}}</ref> we've now given the reference a name and any other time we call it we only need to type <ref name=Doe /> (note that there's just the one tag, and the closing '/' is inside it). You can do this in the visual editor using the dropdown and giving a reference there. Later you can select the name to reuse it.
The one thing named references don't give you is page numbers. If you want to cite specific pages, there are a few ways to do that, but if the work you are citing is fairly short and you aren't quoting someone parenthetically or directly you can usually omit those. When you want to, I like one of two ways. First, cite the whole work with the full template as one reference, not one page (be sure to put the page range for journal articles). Here is a quick look at how that works. Then for specific references you can type <ref>Doe 2009, 27</ref> (any author date style is fine so long as it is consistent). It's easy to type and it looks good. There are templates you can use as well. A bit trickier but with more functionality. If you'd like to know how those work let me know.
I hope this helps. If you have any other questions please let me know. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:22, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
You can also mix named references and shortened footnotes (and mix both with individual citations). There's no need to overhaul everything at once. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:37, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Neoimpressionism

Hi Adam. Thanks so much for your comment, it's really helping clear things up. I'm still a bit lost because I am not at all sure what I'm supposed to be doing, I really just need the article to go up for my class, it's a large portion of my grade so this is very stressful. All of the prose my partner and I wrote are cited but I'm not sure about the work that existed on the page before. We tried to incorporate as much as possible but maybe that's the issue (is that the what is breaking references?). Any additional help you could provide would be wonderful! Thank you!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Woode2 (talk • contribs) 23:39, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

  • Hi Woode2. I wouldn't stress too much, your grade should not (please correct me if I'm wrong) depend upon whether or not your work is in an article. If you make a draft improvement that was reverted for reasons outside your control, what you wrote in the draft is still there (as is when you wrote it), so you can be graded on that. We strongly recommend that instructors grade this way to try to avoid the stress you're feeling now. I'll leave a note on your draft with some ideas on how the work can be integrated into an article.
  • I also moved your section to the bottom of the page. It is customary for talk pages (article and user) to be ordered chronologically. If you want to do that easily you can click the "new section" tab when you are on a talk page. The section you add will automatically be appended to a talk page.

Requesting a Review of article for English 3060J Class

Hello!

I have wrote an article on the army's first female aviator, Sally Murphy. Currently, no article exists on her. I know it may be a little rough since there may be some grammar/spelling errors. There also was not much information on her, but she definitely is a notable person in military history. Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to look over our class's work!

Hi Adam,

My name is Devon Alexander and I am a student in Sarah Einstein's English class, and I was hoping that you could review my articles on Rhonda Mapp and Ann S.

Rhonda Mapp was a former WNBA player who was the first to be banned from the league for an illegal substance and she was also the founder of a nonprofit organization, Follow Your Dreams Inc. Ann S. Moore is a popular person as she founded Sports Illustrated for Kids and is a known publisher of People. Thanks so much for you time and efforts!

I am creating a Wikipedia page for haute couture fashion designer, Madame Gres. In the article I was hoping to outline her life and work in a clear and concise manner. I want the viewer to become knowledgable of her life and notable career in the fashion industry. If you could review my article before I put it on the actual site I would be very appreciative. I have attached a link to my sandbox that includes my article. Thank you for your time.

Requested help for ENG 3060J 4/14

Hi Adam,

My name is Cole Edwards and I am currently a student in Sarah Einstein's Women and Writing class at Ohio University. I was hoping that you could help me with my article by giving your professional opinion and tips to help make it a successful article. I am currently creating an article for the University of Dayton Womens basketball team I am getting all of my information from the Dayton Flyers sports website where you could retrieve stats and rosters from years past to the present. I am also wondering that if my external link is acceptable enough as a source, I have researched other articles similar and that is all the sources that those articles used. As well as do you feel I should try to add more information in their history section or even creating another section that would help the quality of the article. I appreciate your help and thank you for your time.

Sincerely, Cole Edwards user:CAE0522/sandbox

Course date change for Human Rights of Indigenous Peoples

I'm trying to extend the dates for Human Rights of Indigenous Peoples. Currently the dashboard and activity feeds are frozen at April 10. I'd like to extend this through April 20.

Thanks.--Carwil (talk) 17:08, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

  • @Carwil: I'm not sure how quickly the dashboard will pick the changes up, but I see you've changed the course page as well. Let me check it in 20 minutes or so to see if it has picked up the change. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:14, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
  • I think the dashboard has picked up the change. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:52, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
I get a server error now: "The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request". No change on the activity feed.--Carwil (talk) 19:52, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
Hmm. I think Sage, our digital services program manager, may be able to help you here. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:55, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
@Carwil: Are you still getting this error? Our server had a problem this morning, but I think everything is working now.--ragesoss (talk) 20:33, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
All is well now. Thanks!--Carwil (talk) 21:23, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Women and Writing 3060J

Hello Adam,

My name is Anna Kovacs and I was informed that you are the splendid Wikipedian that I am to send my article to for some reviewing. I would like to add to this that I plan to continue to edit and add to the article on Sylvan Esso until our final submission date. My goal with this was really to update the information on their page as they are my favorite band. For our class we just had to pick a subject (women, racial, LGBT, etc) that we felt hadn't been fully represented online, so I chose this band as the singer is a female (it loosely qualifies). Some problems I'm having are ; 1.) My references are not adding to the existing references, instead they are creating a new list of references which I'm pretty sure will become confusing once it is published. 2.) Finding secondary sources as they are a new band, most information I find on them is from interviews and so on, thus it cannot be used most of the time. 3.)I want to add an image of the two and cannot figure out how to do that/if I'm even allowed to. Here is the link to my page! user:TheKovacsCat/sanbox I understand it will take time for you to get back to me and I want to thank you for doing this for our class!

Help with my 3060J Article

Adam, This is Abbey Mauch. I previously requested your help with my Nicola Clayton article and I have another request. We were just attempting to fix an issue with the citations and then created an issue with my info box. I was hoping you could either tell me how to fix it or fix it for me. I very much appreciate it.

3060j feedback

Hey I'm working on the 3060j class and I was hoping for some feedback on my article draft. My draft is currently in my sandbox. user:solberg93/sandbox. I added a section for parental leave in Norway in the feminism in Norway article because there was no existing site on this topic so far and it seemed like the best article to add this. I am not sure if I should add it to feminism in Norway or make a new separate wikipedia article about it. Solberg93 (talk) 22:01, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
