overall, very helpful!

Acat2169 (talk)
It was very thorough and went over most of the questions I had about how to resolve potential disputes with other Wikipedia editors.
 * What I liked:

Some of the points covered seemed a little unnecessary.
 * What I didn't like:

Nothing really, I thought the orientation was rather thorough.
 * What was missing:

There was a lot of time devoted to plagiarism which was rather heavy handed. I think that if someone is going to be editing this on a more serious level, they do not need as much babying when it comes to this subject.

Nrector (talk)Certification & Feedback
... I liked the succinct nature of the module, and the practical screencasts.
 * What I liked:

... At times, there were too many pages to click through, with not enough information on each page.
 * What I didn't like:

...
 * What was missing:

I think it covered everything.

... It was good, just spread out too much between pages. --Nrector (talk) 16:44, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Smith.DustinT (talk)
...
 * What I liked: I liked that the info was very in depth, and clear on what the developers want.

...
 * What I didn't like: It is a lot of information up front.  I think that the tutorial should instead take you through the creation of your first page.

...
 * What was missing: I think that the tutorial should take you through the process of making a "starter" page.

...
 * What was unnecessary: In my opinion it got a little long without having hands on content.

Tubatoothpaste 13 (talk)
I thought that the orientation was very easy to follow.
 * What I liked:

I feel like the module with thirty pages got a little tedious.
 * What I didn't like:

I did not really feel like anything was missing, I think alot of what was not on there is going to be learned on the job, as in how you will likely deal with criticism. (obviously you are not going to lash out at people, but how you chose to rework what you have)
 * What was missing:

I felt like most everything was needed in some form or another, mostly because it is a public place and each person deserves to have their voice hear. As such we need to all be respectful of one another, and all follow the same guidelines.

174.107.240.86 (talk)
...I liked how some slides were clear and straight to the point. Like for example the slides in the beginning. When they were stating like the five pillars of wikipedia and listed a few bullet points on each slide
 * What I liked:

...There wasn't anything that i can think of at the moment that i didn't like. I think one thing i didn't like was how they would talk about it and explain how you go about setting something up. Then when you click onto the next page it says congratulations on creating something. I think that maybe there should have been a tutorial slide or a hands on slide before getting to the congratulations page. I also didn't like the number of slides you have to go through each category. I think they some of the slides could be combined a little.
 * What I didn't like:

...I dont think anything was missing.
 * What was missing:

...I think some of the slides were unnecessary. Some of the information on them seem to be sort of like common knowledge. Things you can figure out on your on without having to be told how to do it.
 * What was unnecessary:
