Hi, Pete! Thank you so much for all useful pages and resources. I translated Global Lives Project page into Korean and added Korean descriptions on the videos we've uploaded so far. It was so fun and I enjoyed editing here a lot. After adding new captions, I will let you, Lauren, and David know to discuss uploading more videos! Thank you, Pete!!

- Aha, I see you figured out how to use the Google translator toolkit! Excellent, I'm glad that worked out. I will send out the introduction to my Korean friend -- sorry for the delay! -Pete (talk) 23:29, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
- Hello, Pete. I just watched your OER video on youtube. It helps me to understand OER, and how Global Lives Project can improve Wikipedia articles! I think I should upload video on Youtube about how to use Google translator toolkit, haha! I also uploaded our new logo picture using Photo Wizard(I cant remember exact name.) and changed our logo to new one on Global Lives Project Wikipedia page. Student has become master! I have one question though. I cannot figure out how to put our logo pic on Korean Wikipedia page. I uploaded new logo again using same tool, and tried everything possible, but nothing worked. Am I not allowed to change logo pic on the Website info section? (June Hwang (talk) 01:34, 12 December 2012 (UTC))
- Great, I'm glad the video helped! Adding the logo to Korean Wikipedia might be tricky. The English language Wikipedia allows logos and images that are not freely licensed, but most language editions do not. We will have to ask David if it's OK to release the logo under a free license; or, ask Cheol if there is another way (since I am not too familiar with Korean Wikipedia). (Did he ever write you back?) -Pete (talk) 23:56, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
- Not yet, but I think I should email Cheol about this issue. Since we've been busy working on Kickstarter campaign, I couldn't re-encode videos we need for Wikipedia pages. I will let you know if any other questions come up! Thank you always! Happy holiday in Boston.(June Hwang (talk) 00:30, 20 December 2012 (UTC))
Another resource
editHi June, here's another resource that may be helpful for you:
This is a brief overview of the most common kinds of wiki syntax coding (for making links, boldface, bullet lists, etc.) You can also find a PDF version on that page, if you'd like to print it out for easy reference. Hope this helps! -Pete (talk) 23:35, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
