Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/University of California, Berkeley/I - PLP Berkeley Interdisciplinary Research Group on Privacy - Coleman Lab (Fall 2020)

The Privacy Literacy Project (PLP) is a recurrent project hosted by the Interdisciplinary Research Group on Privacy (IRGP). I-PLP (International-Privacy Literacy Project) is the version of this project where content is in foreign languages as opposed to english. IRGP was founded at UC Berkeley during the summer of 2016. The semester long, discovery-oriented, research (and professional) skills training program focuses on the review, discussion, translation, and dissemination of privacy, surveillance, and cybersecurity knowledge to the public.

Week 2
The goal of the IRGP/Coleman Lab bootcamp is to introduce you to all of the tools you will use during the semester and get you comfortable with them before you start your first full week of work. Bootcamp is also a place to for you to get to know everyone in the lab.

Welcome to the International Privacy Literacy Project's course timeline. This page will guide you through this Wikipedia project for our lab.

Our lab creates original Wikipedia pages on privacy, cybersecurity, and surveillance. We also often translate those pages into foreign languages. This term you will be tasked with helping us to get those newly translated articles up on foreign language Wikipedia sites and help us translate articles from english into that assigned langauge. Additionally, students help to find privacy, cybersecurity, and surveillance articles on assigned foreign language sites that are then translated into english.

Before you get to work on our project it is important that you understand the process of doing edits on Wikipedia in english and creating an original Wikipedia page in english. Along the way you will also be helping to create tools to help future students uploading documents in the language(s) you are working on this term. Get excited you are doing groundbreaking work! Let's get started!

This page breaks down writing a Wikipedia article into a series of steps, or milestones. These steps include online training in english to help you get started on Wikipedia. If you have never worked on Wikipedia before don’t worry we will guide you. Our course has also been assigned a Wikipedia Content Expert. Check your &quot;Talk page&quot; for notes from them. You can also reach them through the &quot;Get Help&quot; button on this page.

To help you plan your time the Executive Director of the Lab has assigned a &quot;difficulty level&quot; to each week of work. These levels are based on the work of prior lab members. The goal is to help you determine, in advance, how much effort will be required. A Difficulty Level of 1 = easy effort; Difficulty Level 2 =  easy to moderate effort; Level 3 = moderate effort; Level 4 = moderate to intense effort; and Level 5 = intense effort. Check in ahead of time if you have questions and please make sure to plan accordingly.

**Please, please, please, please DO NOT SKIP AHEAD. This course is designed to build upon content learned and practiced the prior week. It is important to understand each week’s work thoroughly before moving onto next week’s steps. This course site is also dynamic (meaning it changes). If you jump ahead you may start work that is ultimately moved to another week or not assigned. Concentrate the work well that has been assigned to you during the current week**

 To get started, please review the following handouts:


 * Editing Wikipedia pages 1–5
 * Evaluating Wikipedia


 * Create an account and join this course page, using the enrollment link your instructor sent you. Please use your real name on the account but DO NOT not use your real name for your username. While this is not a requirement (not using your real name as your username) it will protect your privacy (which is something we care a lot about).
 * Because of Wikipedia's technical restraints, you may receive a message that you cannot create an account. To resolve this, please try again off campus or the next day. If you have ANY difficulty setting up your account (ex. block) please let us know immediately.
 * If you will be using Wikipedia from outside the United States and need to use a VPN please see our lab intranet page for a document on VPN use and/or search for Wikipedia's FAQ on editing while using a VPN. Looking ahead, if you encounter an IP block please reach out to our Wikipedia expert.

***When you finish the trainings, practice by introducing yourself (use your username) to a classmate on that classmate's &quot;Talk page&quot;***

'''***You are going to keep hearing the terms &quot;user Talk Page,&quot; &quot;sandbox,&quot; and &quot;article talk page,&quot; this semester. Let's make sure you understand what they all mean. Please write up the definitions of each in a word document and attach it to your memo this week. Make sure you also save a copy for yourself so you can reference it when you get confused.***'''

***In order to have your work checked for the duration of this course, you need to be logged into Wikipedia and the portal.***

Please review the  Berkeley library research guide  for our lab and the  library skills videos. Both are hyperlinked on our lab intranet page.

This week, everyone should have attended bootcamp and set up a Wikipedia account.

For your assignment, you should complete this exercise for TWO articles. ======

To start, take the training linked here. Then, read the Wikipedia article about information privacy  and also go find a second article in the foreign language Wikipedia you are working in this term. The way to do the latter is to go to https://www.wikipedia.org/ and click on “Read Wikipedia in your language.”

Find your language and then find a page you want to evaluate on the topic of privacy, surveillance, or cyber security. Use those two articles (one in english and one in the foreign language) while you complete the exercise:

Exercise
Evaluate an article


 * In your sandbox, write up your answers to these questions for the two articles you reviewed and then send them out on the I-PLP project team email list by 11:59pm PST on Saturday.   If you don't remember what your sandbox is and how to get there, take a look at the definitions you wrote up during week 1 or review your earlier trainings.  
 * Optional (feel like showing off): Choose at least 1 question from the above list that is relevant to one of the articles you're evaluating. Leave your evaluation on the article's &quot;Talk page.&quot; Be sure to sign your feedback with four tildes — Locnamehn (talk) 23:02, 18 December 2020 (UTC).

If you jump ahead you may start work that is ultimately moved to another week or not assigned. Concentrate the work well that has been assigned to you during the current week**

Now that you're thinking about what makes a &quot;good&quot; Wikipedia article, consider these additional questions. '''Send your answers out on the I-PLP project team email list by 11:59pm PST on Saturday. '''


 * Wikipedians often talk about &quot;content gaps.&quot; What do you think a content gap is, and what are some possible ways to identify them?
 * What are some reasons a content gap might arise? What are some ways to remedy them?
 * Does it matter who writes Wikipedia?
 * What does it mean to be &quot;unbiased&quot; on Wikipedia? How is that different, or similar, to your own definition of &quot;bias&quot;?

Week 4

 * Familiarize yourself with editing Wikipedia by adding a citation to an article. Use the training here and the exercise below to complete this assignment.***

Exercise
Add a citation


 * Please add a couple sentences to a privacy related Wikipedia article within your language and cite the source you found that information in, or you can use the Citation Hunt Tool (search for “privacy” if you use this) to find statements that need citations.
 * This task will require you to perform a bit of research. If you have questions send them out on your project team email list. Wikipedia also has a ton of resources to help you. Click the &quot;Get Help&quot; button and use them.

'''We will be giving you access to an editable document this week. You will be creating a translation toolkit for your assigned language (in english) at the end of your time with the lab.''' As you work, pay attention to any differences you may observe between english Wikipedia and the language you were assigned in Wikipedia.

Please jot notes down weekly in it and keep an eye out for requests to submit drafts with your memo. The more you keep track of differences the faster your final assignment will go. This week carefully consider any differences you notice between adding citations in your assigned language verses adding them in english Wikipedia.

Except for things like the identification of specific terms needed to translate in your language (ex. the button for help looks different.  The word for help in my language is _____), you will be expected to prepare this entire document in english.

Please send an email to your project team email list if you have questions.

Week 5
This week you will begin to work with the Wikipedia article(s) you will either be translating or  posting in your assigned language’s Wikipedia.

Read your assigned article(s) in English and then read the translation provided to you in your assigned language. '''Once you have done that answer these questions. Put your answers in your sandbox along with the full text of your article(s) in your assigned language by 11:59pm PST on Saturday and include them in your weekly memo.  If you don't remember what your sandbox is and how to get there, take a look at the definitions you wrote up during week 1 or review your earlier trainings.'''

IF WORKING ON AN EXISTING TRANSLATION:


 * Does the article read as well in your assigned language as it does in english?
 * Are key concepts and terms expressed as well as in the version in your assigned language as they are in english?
 * What ideas do you have to improve this article ?
 * Add comment boxes with any changes you think should be done to the article.
 * If after you have reviewed the article you feel confident in the changes you have suggested go ahead and make the edits in our shared document.

IF TRANSLATING A NEW ARTICLE


 * Look for important terms, concepts, and technical phrases within your assigned article. Do these concepts translate neatly into your language? If not, how can you effectively communicate those topics in your translated article?
 * How confident are you in translating your assigned article &amp; what resources are available to you if you get stuck? Remember, you do not need to be an expert in your language to translate, but should feel comfortable asking for help when needed.
 * English Wikipedia has style manuals to help editors maintain consistency and readability. What writing resources are available on your language Wikipedia?
 * Readability is important when writing a Wikipedia article. What strategies can you use or what adjustments can you make to facilitate your potential viewers' comfort when reading the article?

Week 6
This week you will continue to work with the Wikipedia article(s) you will either be translating or  posting in your assigned language’s Wikipedia.

Exercise
Add links to your articleRead Editing Wikipedia page 12 to see how to create links from your article(s) to others, and from other articles to your own. Try to link to 3–5 articles, and link to your article from 2–3 other articles.


 * Consider adding an image to your article(s). Wikipedia has strict rules about what media can be added, so make sure to take the 'Contributing Images and Media Files' training before you upload an image.

Polish your work

Continue to expand and improve your work, and format your article(s) to match Wikipedia's tone and standards. Remember to contact your Content Expert at any time if you need further help!

Now's the time to revisit your text and refine your work or add images and other media.

Reusing your sandbox

<span style="font-family: Open Sans, sans-serif;"> You may notice that the sandbox associated with your username redirects to the first article you moved. In order to use a sandbox again, you will need to either create a new sandbox or unlink your sandbox from the article. This will require some research into your language Wikipedia’s procedures.
