WMST 250: Women, Art, and Culture assignment

edit

Hello,

I'm an online ambassador for your WMST 250: Women, Art, and Culture (2014 Q3) class. You've got a great start to your article. I've added some comments on the sandbox talk page and am happy to help. I'll be watching this page and your sandbox page, so any comments or questions can be added and I'll check back in with you. Happy editing!--CaroleHenson (talk) 01:37, 1 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lis Rhodes, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Britain. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I went ahead and deleted Britain. It didn't need a link to begin with because countries/continents shouldn't be linked. And, since you've already said she's from England, you don't need to clarify the country - or in this case, the island or sovereign state - unless the school is in another country. I hope that helps and makes sense.--CaroleHenson (talk) 21:19, 14 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hello! I am also a student taking the WMST250 course at the University of Maryland. Your page was very well done and thorough. I learned a lot about the artist from it. All I did was add a few wiki links to the page. To do this I switched around a few words such as box camera instead of camera box. Overall, well done! -- User:Sydneyp9856

Short interview?

edit

Hi, I'm Eryk from the Wiki Education Foundation. I happened to notice the really great work you did on the Friedl Kubelka article! I wondered if you'd be interested in sharing some of your experiences working on this site for our blog? I'd like to write a short post about students who have added content about women artists to Wikipedia.

We could use your real name or your Wikipedia username. We find students like to participate since it gives them a pretty positive search result related to the field they're studying in. If you have a minute, you can drop me an e-mail at eryk@wikiedu.org, mention your username and what course you were in, and answer any of the following questions, and I'd be excited to get some attention directed toward your good work.

  1. What are your goals (career or academics wise?)
  2. Did you have any experience with Wikipedia before the class started? What did you think of Wikipedia before you started work on this assignment?
  3. How did you find the process of writing a Wikipedia article, compared to if you had written a traditional paper on the topic?
  4. Were you or your class aware that many women artists, and women in general, don't have Wikipedia entries? Did that encourage you in any way?
  5. Do you think you'll come back to Wikipedia now that the course is finished?

Thanks for your time! Eryk (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
