ICCH224 Week 02

[edit]
General instruction
  • You are going to see history of pages on Wikipedia to learn how volunteers collaboratively develop content and media. We would like you to learn from the edits made by our students in the past terms. The list of terms, students and articles can be found at user:Taweetham/WEP.
  • All tasks must be answered by using Special:Diff. See Help:Diff for further detailed instructions and see an example below
Tasks
  1. Read WP:NOT. Find an example of student edit on an article AND warning message that the student received on his/her talk page.
  2. Read Wikipedia:Edit warring. Find an example of student edits on an article (it requires several edits to be an edit warring) AND warning that the student received on his/her talk page.
  3. Read WP:COPYVIO. Find an example of a student who has been warned about it on his/her talk page. Find an example (Wikipedia diff on an article) where copyrighted media (image, VDO or sound files) is deleted from Wikimedia Commons and removed from an article.

Please leave your answer below. (Leave a reply in this section of your talkpage.) --Taweetham (talk) 15:46, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Congratulations! This assignment is completed. --SoonLorpai (talk) 08:52, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ICCH224 Week 03

[edit]

Please propose a topic or two that you wish to write on Wikipedia. You should read all related articles/policies on Wikipedia and provide the following information.

  1. Your proposed article(s) (New or existing STUB article relating to a chemical compound, reaction, equipment or technique - or related to your major/interest. (see Category:Stub-Class Chemistry articles))
    • For new article, explain briefly why it passes WP:NOTE.
    • For existing topics, explain briefly the state/structure of the current article.
      • Is the structure & existing content appropriate?
        • If not, restructure or remove content as per WP:MOS and WP:NOT before you move to the next stage.
  2. Brief outline of your contributions to the article
    • In what section & what content
      • Make sure it belongs to the article and it is encyclopedic. See WP:NOT for things that should NOT be added.
      • Make sure that it is not redundant to existing articles. Use Google search "site:wikipedia.org" rather than Wikipedia search.
    • References for the article
    • Media files (photo/VDO/drawing) to be used in the article.
      • You may suggest plan to create your own work and upload to Wikimedia Commons
      • You may use existing media on Wikimedia Commons. Use Google image search "site:wikimedia.org" rather than Wikimedia Commons search.
  3. Examples/template/related articles that you will use as a model to develop your nominated article.
    • In terms of WP:MOS/formatting - your article will have similar style/format/tone to these articles.
    • In terms of content - your article will link to or will be linked from these articles.

Please leave your answer below. (Leave a reply in this section of your talkpage.) --SoonLorpai (talk) 08:52, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]


1.My proposed topic (Existing topic) Lactosylceramide.

  • The state of the current article seems incomplete because the article provides only the definition and the structure Lactosylceramide.

2.A brief outline of the contribution to the article.

  • I will add more definition and some other information such as molecular formula, chemical name, and IUPAC name.
  • I will add a new section to describe the chemical properties in the table form.
  • Also, I will add one more section for the associated disorders and diseases.
  • References

3. My article will be similar format/ style to this article:

Thanks for your hard work. Keep trying! Taweetham (talk) 09:20, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ICCH224 Week 04

[edit]

Your topic is approved and added to the course page. Please develop the proposal into the first draft in your sandbox.

  • For existing article, you may copy some parts of the existing article to your sandbox to see how revision/integration of content would work. You will copy the code back to the article at later stage.
  • For new article, you may want to copy parts of a template article to your sandbox to see what sections are necessary. The sandbox will be moved to the article namespace at later stage. Please do not click "Submit your draft for review!". The function is not applicable to our course.

In all cases, do not copy more than what is necessary. For example, do not copy any categories to your sandbox. --Teetee taw (talk) 15:47, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your work. Please quickly revise your work accordingly:

  1. WP:REF: You cannot use Wikipedia as a reference. You should have learnt this from Week 3 assignment: question 2 (references).
  2. Use {{Chembox}} for the chemical information. You should have learnt this from Week 3 assignment: question 3 (example article).

You have until the end of today (25 May UTC+7) to revise your work to the standard. --Taweetham (talk) 01:45, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Done {{chembox}} is still needed. You can revise in the article namespace. --Taweetham (talk) 04:07, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ICCH224 Week 05

[edit]

Your work has been reviewed. Majority of the content/formatting is ok. Please carefully move encyclopedic part of your sandbox to article namespace so that the general public can see it. Here are some tips to help you complete the transition to online editing.

  1. Content/Formatting policies
  2. Technicalities
    • Unlike sandbox, all edits will be public immediately and it is important to make sure that all of your edits are acceptable. You may use preview button and provide edit summary to help you.
    • Any "page save" on Wikipedia even outside article namespace is permanently recorded and can be retrieved by the public. Please think carefully before you click save and before you revert other people edits. No work is lost but only the latest version of the page is shown to the public. Deletion of pages (or versions of pages) is only possible by admins if it falls under Wikipedia:Deletion policy. You can request admins to do deletion or other prescribed tasks should the need arises.
    • You may want to set watchlist and notifications so that you can catch up with changes made to your article and your talk page by other editors.
  3. Community interactions
    • You will be interacting with other volunteers when you make edits on the article namespace. Please respect other users in the community and assume good faith.
    • If your work is reverted or modified in any other ways, do not engage in a edit war. Rather use discussion page of your article to settle issues.
    • You may be blocked from Wikipedia for failure to observe community rules.

We hope you enjoy seeing product of your hard work read by many people in the years to come. --Taweetham (talk) 04:07, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Done - Please check out Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Linking. --Taweetham (talk) 01:12, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ICCH224 Week 06

[edit]

A volunteer SoonLorpai (talk · contribs) has accepted to be your reviewer. The reviewer will be in contact with you shortly. --Taweetham (talk) 01:09, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Sorry for not having gotten back to you earlier. I have taken a look at your edits and I suggest you consider the following for this week:

1. Text
Please consider revising your text. I understand that this is a rather advanced topic and may be difficult to grasp at first. Your references are great. Try to spend some time reading and thinking about what they mean then explaining them in your own words so that people like your classmates who don't know much about lactosylceramide can read and easily understand. Although some plagiarism detectors don't complain when certain words are replaced with synonyms and moved around, I still believe that what you have published is too similar to the source text for my liking :)
2. Figures
Perhaps you could delete the structure of lactosylceramide in the "introduction" area (don't know what you call that) because it's already included in the table. You might also want to include additional images.
3. Chemical Properties Table
I really liked this table you made. Safety data sheets (SDS) often provide extra information about material you're interested in such as physical and chemical properties and hazards. Try googling "Lactosylceramide SDS."
4. References
Good references. Be sure you don't create duplicate references. See Wikipedia:Citing sources#Repeated citations.

Keep in mind that you don't have to do everything I have listed by this week, so don't feel overwhelmed. They are merely suggestions, and you have the option to accept/reject them and come up with what you think should be your next steps. Happy writing! --SoonLorpai (talk) 01:58, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ICCH224 Week 07

[edit]

For your information, the grading is based on the criteria below: Wikipedia contributions must meet the minimum quantity requirement to be graded.

Quantity
  • We generally expect at least 5,000 characters (counted by xtools's authorship attribution) to the assigned article unless you upload media file(s) and/or help contribute to classmate article(s).
  • If media are created by you, uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons and used in the article, either 1,000 or 2,000 or 3,000 characters credit will be given, regardless of the number of media uploaded.
    • 1,000 characters credit will be given to sound files(s).
    • 1,000 characters credit will be given to image(s).
    • 2,000 characters credit will be given to video(s).
  • If you help classmate(s) to edit their articles or create media files for uses in classmates' articles, up to 1,000 bytes of your contributions may be counted. Your classmate(s) must remain in the Wikipedia assignment program at the end of the term so that the articles can be counted.
  • All of the work must be created by you and recorded under your username.
  • No outstanding WP:COPVIO issues for both text and media.

The work will be graded based on quality and process criteria:

Quality

Learn from similar articles on Wikipedia (preferably higher quality than the article you are working on).

  • Structure
  • Content
    • All information are relevant to the article and written in encyclopedic tone. (Understand WP:NOT.)
    • Text are clearly supported by reliable sources. (Follow WP:REF.)
    • Do final clean up and proofreading.
  • Formatting & housekeeping
    • Formatting (citation e.g. {{cite web}}}, {{cite journal}} and {{cite book}}, heading styles, bullet/numbered point, font face, table, position/layout/caption of images etc.)
    • Other issues (course tag on talk page of your article, make sure you add categories to your article(s) and media)
    • File names in Wikimedia commons or reference name in the article should be sensible and helpful for other editors.
    • Unnecessary files, pages e.g. redirection are nominated for deletion.
    • To produce desired formatting, learn from source codes of other articles on Wikipedia or ask classmates/other Wikipedians.
Process
  • Complete the assignment on time.
  • Understand Wikipedia articles and policies by independent reading.
  • Take appropriate action on comments given by the community/instructor.
  • Provide edit summary for every edit on the article namespace.
  • If conflict arises, do not engage in edit war. Use talk page/discussion pages to resolve the issue.
  • Help improve classmates' articles.
  • Thank other editors/reviewers of your article.

ICCH224 Week 08

[edit]

For your information, the list below may be useful to you:

  • final clean up and proofreading before grading.
  • clear outstanding work/issues.
  • thank other editors of your article. (Log in, check the article's history and click thank.)
  • create your user page. (optional)
  • Check list
  1. Do you meet the quantitative requirement? See the course page for more information.
  2. Are your contributions recorded under your account? See a page history or see the file page on commons to verify.
  3. Do you have categories for BOTH your article and media files?
  4. Do you have sufficient links to and from your article? Check the links to your article by clicking on "What links here" on the left-hand menu. It is useful to have your article included in some templates, for example, Template:Laboratory_equipment.
  5. Do your media files clearly demonstrate the subject matter? Do your files have a sensible name? (You can request a name change at Wikimedia Commons by Clicking on "More" --> "Move".)
  6. Do you have appropriate media caption in your article and appropriate description/license information on Wikimedia Commons page?
  7. Does your article follow the "Manual of Style" and properly referenced?
  8. Check the talk page of your article. See if page issues are addressed.

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Railfan23. I noticed that you recently removed content from Lactosylceramide without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.
