This user is a student editor in Wikipedia:Wiki_Ed/University_of_California_San_Francisco/Health_Policy_(Fall_2017). Student assignments should always be carried out using a course page set up by the instructor. It is usually best to develop assignments in your sandbox. After evaluation, the additions may go on to become a Wikipedia article or be published in an existing article. |
Welcome!
editHello, Emcoxsey01, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.
I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Feedback
editThere are a few types of possible feedback. One is feedback from your classmates, if your instructor assigned you to peer-review one-another's work. Another is feedback on the talk page of the article. You might make suggestions for changes, see what people say. That usually makes sense on an actively-edited page. Finally, there's feedback on your edits to the article, ones you add your content to the article. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:38, 2 October 2017 (UTC)
- To get an idea of contentious editing, look at View history for a controversial topic. Look especially for an largish addition or deletion, immediately followed by a same size change reversing what the last person did. And pray that whatever changes you make don't get into an edit war of this nature. Disagreements are supposed to get worked out in Talk, and if not there, there are forms of arbitration. Good luck.
