 Tutorial task 1 

Activity 1 - From Scratch[

Find an article on a topic that you are interested in or are knowledgeable about. Have a look at the first substantial edit on that page through its revision history.

If you had created this article first - what would you have done differently? If you were the second reader, how would you have edited the article? Write up your thoughts on your user page (100-200 words is plenty).

If I had created the 'Koala' page (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Koala&oldid=262876) first, I would have provided more information on the subject; commencing in a more factual way, describing the animal's size and appearance with specific references to reliable sources of accurate information such as textbooks or publications written by experts in the field. I would add hyperlinks to any additional information pages that Wikipedia has so that readers may obtain additional information on any topic-specific language that they do not understand. The addition of pictures would also benefit the article. I would not present my view in any way, as the first author has described the Koala as 'cute' which is a personal opinion unnecessary in an encyclopedia.

If I were the second reader I would add a lot more factual, referenced information and divide the article into subsections so that it is easily accessible. I would organise the article into paragraphs and create links to the different sections to make it easy for readers to navigate the page. I would certainly add an image for readers to see the animal visually. Additional, unbiased information would be the most important addition to the article as it is mainly lacking in information after the first edit.
