TALK.

Welcome to WIKISOO

Hello and welcome to the Writing Wikipedia Articles course (#WIKISOO)! We look forward to meeting you in the first class on 25 February (Americas)/26 Feb (Asia/Australia). By now you should have received an introductory email with some details about the course. If you can't find it, there's an archived copy of the email at this link.

To attend the live session, please check our course home page for instructions and the link. We recommend logging into Blackboard Collaborate (the live class software we use) before the day of class, to be sure it's working. (More tips on the home page.)

If taking the course in self-paced mode, please come say hello on the course talk page so we know who you are! Thanks for signing up, and we'll see you Tuesday! - Pete (talk) 06:12, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

Second WIKISOO class starts soon!

Hi! Just a quick reminder that the second WIKISOO class starts in about 3 hours. Even if you missed Week 1, please join us at this link for the live webinar - ideally about 15 minutes early to test your mic/speakers. If you haven’t finished up your Week 1 homework, there’s still time; post any questions on the class talk page! You can also watch a video of last week’s class on YouTube (earlier audio problems have been corrected). Feel free to contact me on my talk page with questions anytime! - WIKISOO co-instructor Sara FB (talk) 22:04, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Nice to meet you on WIKISOO

Hi, I was a little helper when I was in grade 8 in the library of my school. Good to see a friendly face join the Wikipedia :D --shangkuanlc (talk) 01:26, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

WIKISOO and Wikipedia Loves Libraries

Glad to meet you through the WIKISOO class, electronically at least! I'm a fellow librarian who has worked on organizing some edit-a-thons in Massachusetts, and I think your idea of looking for a "Wiki Ninja" to help your library group is a good model. -- AmandaRR123 (talk) 01:29, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 02:29, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

WIKISOO Week 3

Hi Agathafrye, we look forward to seeing you in class in a few hours. We look forward to seeing you in class in a few hours. Here's the link to our Week 3 class page and to the live webinar.

PLEASE NOTE: If you're not in the USA, please double-check the class time. We have gone on Daylight Savings Time (also known as Summer Time) in the USA, so for some of you the class time will be an hour earlier. (If your country goes on Summer Time in the coming weeks, you will want to check again!)

This week we are going to start off with some basic review of all we've covered. So if you've been feeling behind or confused by all the details, we'll make sure we've got your questions answered before forging ahead! See you soon, -Pete (talk) 16:28, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

It's called WikiLove ;)

If you go to someone else's talk page (like mine, but not yours) you will see a red heart in the upper right where it also says "edit" and "view history". Press it! Now you can leave pictures and it's super easy and fun. Hope you're enjoying Wikipedia! heather walls (talk) 21:16, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Welcome!

Some cookies to welcome you!

Welcome to Wikipedia, Agathafrye! Thank you for your contributions. I am Sportfan5000 and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}} at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• Introduction
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• How to write a great article

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Sportfan5000 (talk) 22:38, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Week 6 of WIKISOO

Hi Agathafrye! Just checking in as we head into the final week of the Writing Wikipedia Articles class. You can look through last week's ether pad notes, check out your homework assignments from Week 5, and watch last week's lecture on YouTube - all right here. Check out my note from last week (above) if you're still diving into your Final Project... or head over to the course talk page to see if anyone else is having the same issues you are! Looking forward to seeing you in the last live webinar of the session tomorrow. Big WikiLove. -Sara FB (talk) 23:21, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
