Edinburgh College of Art training session
editHello again, DimitrisTh!
Thank you so much for taking part in the training session the other day. I hope that you enjoyed it and that we'll see you on Wiki again soon. I think it would be great if we could put on an architecture edit-a-thon for the Festival of Architecture 2016 covering any architects or projects currently under-represented on Wikipedia so if you come across suggested topics for articles on your travels then do let me know. And if you'd be interested in participating in something like this then drop me an email and I'll see if I can't get something arranged.
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

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 edit-a-thons 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!
