Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/SUNY Sullivan/Introduction to Sociology - SOC 1600 03 DL (Fall 2020)

The purpose of this Wikipedia Extra Credit assignment for our Introduction to Sociology course is for students to take what they learn through critical reading and analysis of the literature and share it in an open and accessible way with others interested in the same area of interest.

This arises from a belief that knowledge sharing, like karma, benefits both sharer and receiver. While this is an introductory undergraduate course, editing Wikipedia can be done by anybody. The more we learn how to identify and locate credible and reliable resources for ourselves, the more we will be able to share these and together help our communities and society to find balanced, more accurate information to help us learn and make decisions.

Assignments, all of which are extra credit, should be done by the end of each week (end of the day on Sunday), and they must be done in order. Weekly assignments may not be skipped, as they continue to build upon one another.

Please note, the extra credit will be sequential, and you will get the extra credit for the work you actually complete. This will be the only course extra credit and will be worth up to 10 points onto your final grade (I do not drop grades nor do I curve grades).

Purpose
We will have a semester-long (10-week) extra credit assignment on learning to edit Wikipedia. The purpose of this Wikipedia Extra Credit assignment for our Introduction to Sociology course is for students to take what they learn through critical reading and analysis of the literature and share it in an open and accessible way with others interested in the same area of interest.

This comes from a belief that knowledge sharing, like karma, benefits both sharer and receiver. As the primary deliverable of the Research Process and Methodology course is the identification of a researchable problem, generation of a research question, and development of a literature review, sharing our depth of knowledge with a wider community benefits our credibility as developing experts in our own areas of interest.

A Wikipedia Overview
Wikipedia is the largest collection of free, collaborative knowledge in human history. It is the 13th  most trafficked site on the Internet (after Google, YouTube, Facebook, and Baidu), with the English Wikipedia containing over 6,000,000 articles with over 10 edits per second. It has over 120,000 active, volunteer editors. Together, they support the work of the Wikimedia Foundation, the nonprofit organization whose mission is to empower and engage people around the world to collect and develop educational content under a free license or in the public domain, and to disseminate it effectively and globally.

The fundamental principles of Wikipedia may be summarized as Five Pillars:

1.      Wikipedia is an encyclopedia

2.      Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view

3.      Wikipedia is free content that anyone can use, edit, and distribute

4.      Wikipedia's editors should treat each other with respect and civility

5.      Wikipedia has no firm rules

Professor’s Educational Intent and Disclosure
I find Wikipedia valuable for my personal, professional, and academic work, and intend this extra credit as an opportunity for you to try some of this on for yourselves in a way that works for your own interests. Once you begin, it is hoped you may find this to be the easiest or most valuable extra credit you were ever offered.

While Wikipedia is primarily a comprehensive and interactive encyclopedia of human knowledge, it has many benefits that are embraced as foundational to this extra credit assignment:


 * ** Sharing knowledge with a broad audience
 * Expanding the awareness about a person or subject-area
 * Connecting with collaborators from across the world
 * Increasing the speed at which new knowledge is constructed
 * Inspiring further research in the area
 * Developing and improving ability to explain content for broad audiences
 * Creating stronger content freely available to increase the understanding of the depth of a field
 * Collaborating amongst classmates, colleagues, and cultures
 * Navigating discussion and communication with a broad spectrum of people
 * Critical thinking and decision-making skill development
 * Media literacy in content creation and consumption
 * Contributing what is learned in a course in a way that will last far beyond the close of the term

Welcome to your Wikipedia assignment's course timeline. This page guides you through the steps you'll need to complete for your Wikipedia assignment, with links to training modules and your classmates' work spaces.

Your course has been assigned a Wikipedia Expert. You can reach them through the Get Help button at the top of this page.

Please work through the following modules given in Week 1, in order. Please follow the same process for the following weeks.

Assignments, all of which are extra credit, should be done by the end of each week (end of the day on Sunday), and they must be done in order. Weekly assignments may not be skipped, as they continue to build upon one another.

You may begin the extra credit at any time, but late assignments must be current by the end of Week 5 (Sunday, October 11). If you have not started and caught up through week 5, you will not be permitted any additional extra credit for this assignment.

Create an account and join this course page. You MUST use the enrollment link from within our course Learning Management System (Brightspace).

Some people use their real name on Wikipedia, yet others use a pseudonym for privacy reasons. All Wikipedia contributions and edits are tied to your username indefinitely, including edits and the editing reputation you will begin to develop. It is difficult to change a username after you begin using it, so consider this before creating one.

It is recommended you provide your email address when you create your account, and then respond to the confirmation email. This will allow you to get notifications and alerts of changes to your edits (if you choose), and will also allow Wikipedians to contact you if there is a need.

A confirmed email address is the only way to recover your account if you ever forget your password. Your email will not be publicly visible nor given to anybody else without your consent.





Make these 3 tweaks in your Wikipedia account Preferences


 * 1) In Preferences &gt; User profile &gt; Email options, turn all the options on so you will get notifications.
 * 2) In Preferences &gt; Notifications, select all of them via Web and Email as they happen.
 * 3) In Preferences &gt; Editing &gt; Editing Mode, select Show me both editor tabs.

These tweaks will allow you to receive my responses to you, along with any system or user notices.

This week, everyone should have created a Wikipedia account.





Create a new section (named with the week / assignment / and your Wikipedia name) and introduce yourself on the professor's FULBERT Talk page.

Each assignment should begin with its own new section at the bottom of the Talk page. Sign all your Talk page comments with &quot;  FULBERT (talk) 17:15, 24 November 2020 (UTC)  &quot; (that will stamp your entries with your username and time/date).

I will always respond to your posts on my Talk page, and after reviewing your progress, will either tell you that you are current (and thus get the extra credit point) or will tell you what to fix (and ask you to fix it and reply to my comment), after which you will then be complete.

Week 2
Complete these two trainings.

Be sure to select and assign yourself the article before you begin copyediting (making a minor fix to the article).

Exercise
Evaluate an articleThis assignment will help you understand what edits to look for and how to assess an article on Wikipedia. Include all criteria in your evaluation.





Create a new section (named with the week / assignment / and your Wikipedia name) on the professor's FULBERT Talk page and include:


 * 1)  a summary of what you did and found in your article evaluation,
 * 2) a link to your article evaluation itself,
 * 3) <span style="font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 15.008px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 15.008px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400;">a link to the diff (difference between the previous version and the current one) on the Talk page where you offered a comment,
 * 4) <span style="font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 15.008px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400;">a sentence or two about what you learned in the process.

Week 3
Finalize your topic / Find your sourcesBe sure to select and assign yourself a different article from last week before you begin editing it or adding a citation to it. Beyond adding a citation alone, make sure to provide a sentence or two to express your contribution in context (which the citation will support) to demonstrate how it adds to the knowledge in the article.

Be sure to include an edit summary when you are finished.

Copyedit an articleRemember to first assign yourself the article you will edit.

Make sure you also add an article summary of the basic edit you made (such as fixing punctuation, a typo, etc.).

Similar to last week, you will now select and assign yourself 2 more (different) articles and add citations to each. Be sure to provide a sentence or two to express each of your contributions in context, and demonstrate how they add to the knowledge in the article.
