Spy Week editathon
[edit]Hello again, Meadows.Lib!
Thank you so much for taking part in the Spy Week editathon. I hope that you enjoyed the day, and that we'll see you on Wiki again soon.
Now that you've learned the basics of editing using Wikipedia’s Visual Editor, I hope that you'll stay logged in and edit or create more articles. I've added some booklets and some links below that you may find useful.
-
How universities are teaching with Wikipedia
-
Editing Wikipedia brochure
-
Instructor Basics, How to use Wikipedia as a teaching tool
-
Illustrating Wikipedia brochure
If you're not feeling bold enough to write an (other) article straight away, why not try a small edit first, or adding a link? Don't worry about being perfect, Wiki is a constantly evolving entity. Fortunately there's a whole team of editors just like you who can help.

You can't break Wikipedia, but in case you're still nervous here are some pages that you might find helpful, especially the first one which covers the main things to remember about using Visual Editor.
- Visual Editor user guide
- Is your topic notable enough for an article?
- Be Bold!
- Don't let grumpy users scare you off.
- Learn from others
- How to write a great article
- A simplified manual of style
The University of Edinburgh are also looking into running lots more editathons over the course of the residency – details are still to be confirmed but will be updated on my project page here: Wikipedia:University_of_Edinburgh
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!
