Re: mentor needed
[edit]Sure, I'll definitely help out. Any ideas on what your assignment will focus on yet, or how many articles a student will be asked to develop/create? For some subjects it may be better to expand existing articles (especially if the existing one is very short or poorly written) while for others, Wikipedia could benefit from new articles to create a little interest in that subject area. /ƒETCHCOMMS/ 01:43, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
Change in your user rights
[edit]Your Wikipedia account was previously granted a user right called "course instructor" by the Wiki Education Foundation. That right enabled you to create a course page through the EducationProgram MediaWiki extension. Starting in fall 2015, the Wiki Education Foundation has discontinued its use of this extension. Going forward, users should create course pages through the Wiki Education Foundation website. That application is more user-friendly, and any content is automatically mirrored to Wikipedia. To prevent confusion, we'll be removing your "course instructor" user right, as it is not needed with the new system. This is simply a notification of the technical change to your account. No action is needed from you at this time.
If you plan on teaching with Wikipedia for the fall 2015 term, please email me (helaine
wikiedu.org) for instructions how to create your next course page using our new system. --Helaine (Wiki Ed) (talk), sent by MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 02:34, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
