Wikistorming

edit

Wikistorming was the name FemTechNet coined in 2013 to describe the shared learning activity of editing Wikipedia across the collective's nodal courses. You can find out more about the outcomes of this project at this incomplete listing of pages that have been edited and created in FemTechNet related edit-a-thons and class activities. More resources about suggested assignments and teaching with Wikipedia can also be found on the FemTechNet website.

Wikipedia community

edit
  • When leaving a message on a talk page: if you are responding on an existing thread, be sure to indent your comment (this is how conversations are organized on these pages) by starting your comment with a ":" for each indentation. If you are starting a new thread, indicate this with a new heading. Remember a level 2 heading is made with two equal signs (e.g. "==Talk page heading=="). Also, be sure to sign your name, be logged in and see below.
