This series is designed to support University of Alberta Library staff their exploration and use of Wikipedia and anyone is welcome to join in. It was delivered first in March and April 2020 and was delivered again in June and July 2020.

Sessions are structured to introduce learners to the Wikipedia ecosystem, editing functionality, and article creation process.

  • Week one: What is Wikipedia?
  • Week two: Learning how to make small edits
  • Week three: Sources & citations
  • Week four: Wikicommons and media
  • Week five: Creating an article
  • Week six: Review and next steps

There is currently no plans to offer the series again in 2020, but the resources used in the series continue to be accessible on the course dashboard: https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/University_of_Alberta/UAL_Wikipedia_101.
