First Sandbox Post! HW#1
Never having edited a Wikipedia page or having an account everything I learned in the tutorials was new to me. The first thing I found the most helpful was how to attach a citation to a work or phrase. The second was the talk page, I was not aware this was a feature of Wikipedia. I like this feature because you can tell what kind of people have been editing the article and how “Wikipedians” are communicating. Personally Wikipedia has always been confusing to me. I think I had a biased opinion about it because before now, I have always been told that Wikipedia is not a reliable source. The most intimidating thing for me is how many words and linked and how easy it is to go to different pages without even noticing. I never realized how easy it was to write or edit a Wikipedia article, I think it’s cool that all you need to do is make an account. Going through the tutorials though I did notice how important it is to cite your sources making me realize that this is a more creditable source. The thing I think is going to be that hardest for me is the coding process. When you go to edit a page and all the codes come up it does seem a little confusing. Once we have fully learned how I use Wikipedia I think it’ll be really helpful. I am also happy to learn about this new resource and how to use it due to the research I have to do for this class but also for my other classes. Edwane1 (talk) 03:12, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
