Hello Alex

I have just signed up to help out at Wikipedia:United States Education Program/Courses/Plate Tectonics (Alex Webb) as an online ambassador. I can help people get started on their Wikipedia articles and I will be happy to provide feedback. I can also help them avoid or get out of trouble if it strikes! My last formal qualification in Geology was in year 12. This was at a time when plate tectonics had just been accepted into the mainstream. I think my geology teacher would have been taught by prof Samuel Warren Carey one of the first proponents of the theory. I have written several articles on geology. You can see them listed at User:Graeme Bartlett/Geology pages. I can be contacted on my Wikipedia talk page and by email. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 05:17, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

Your class seems to be doing awesome! Great peer commentary and lots of good tips from Graeme! Let us know if we can help as you're moving along toward your go-live day. --Rburdette (talk) 19:34, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello Graeme, Rebecca - the Sandbox Draft phase is complete, it hasn't been entirely pretty but most students are making good progress. Thanks for your help, feedback, encouragement!! Graeme, it's becoming apparent I am going to end up owing you a bottle or a few! Aagwebb (talk) 20:15, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Please remind your students to sign their posts

Hi Aagwebb, I've been reading a few of your class's articles so far, and I must say that they are doing very well! However, I noticed that when they were leaving comments on other students' talk pages, they did not sign. Please kindly inform them to sign their posts. Thanks!

Hello Alex.

I have moved this test page to User:Aagwebb/testinginstructions. Don't forget to add the "User:" on the front of the sandbox names. Otherwise they will look like articles and get deleted pretty quick! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 06:24, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Thanks Bruce1ee, Graeme Bartlett - sorry for the mix-up. Aagwebb 07:27, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
