Hey Jessica, I think Corumination sounds like a good topic. Does only one of us have to post our topic to Professor Tompkin's page? Hfrueh (talk) 20:26, 5 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi Jessica, I'm glad I made the suggestion as it will provide you with the ability to complete the assignment in this class while learning more about the background of our study! It looks like the rumination page is also scant but you've clearly identified some other pages (perhaps depression and/or anxiety and/or coping are others) to link to so it isn't an orphan any more. Any time that you aren't signed in it doesn't give you credit for having made an edit (e.g., go in and look at history and you'll see that someone made an edit on Sept. 18th). Clearly it was you given your description and the fact the page hasn't been edited at all recently (so you'll get credit for the class in terms of editing). However, it highlights the need for you to always sign in before you start working as looking at your contributions is the main way I will be able to see the amount of work that you've done and from that perspective I wouldn't have known you made an edit to the article (if you hadn't informed me that you had). Let me know if you have questions. I will also invite you into the drop box for the project if you'd like as we have most all of the articles we read and referenced in developing the project there.

Doing it right? edit

Hi there, You asked if you were doing it right and the edits were spot on. However, you posted your update to the Wikipedia assignment talk page (not my user talk page). It is easy (at least for me) to get turned around so no worries. Just wanted to let you know! Tatompki (talk) 04:43, 16 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Feedback - Week 5 Assignments edit

Nice job... looks like you've got the hang of editing (including brief edit summaries), linking and referencing. You did, however, forget to include constructive suggestions on how to improve the article further on the article talk page. Let me know if you make this change so I can make sure to award you the full 8 points for this assignment. Tatompki (talk) 04:56, 29 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
