Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia, Alissahart!
  Wikipedia is an encyclopedia collaboratively written by its readers. Its sheer size means it's easy to get lost, so here are some pages to help you get started. To learn about Wikipedia, see our help pages. To customize the site's appearance and other options, change your preferences. For more information, consult some frequently asked questions. You can test your edits in the sandbox.
 
You are welcome to start editing without learning our policies. But please, keep a neutral point of view, cite your sources to make articles verifiable, and please remember we are an encyclopedia.
 
If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask them. Wikipedia:Questions tells you the most appropriate place to post them. You can also place {{helpme}} at the bottom of your talk page with a question. Oh, and please sign your posts on talk pages by typing ~~~~.

Let me know if you have any questions or problems. Kaldari (talk) 23:42, 21 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Source usage analysis of Women in Chile

edit

You might be interested in this page, which includes an analysis of the source usage in the article Women in Chile. I started doing this because of a discussion at the Education Noticeboard about whether students typically used sources correctly. I decided to take some example articles from the spring 2012 semester and look at every single source in them, and determine whether there were any errors in the way the sources were used -- either direct quotation without quote marks, or close paraphrasing, or inaccurate representation of the source material. You are one of the main editors of that article, so quite a few of the source attributions are to you. So far I've analyzed references 1, 2, 7 and 9, and your name has come up multiple times; I thought you might like to take a look at the analysis I've done so far and let me know if you think I've made any mistakes. (You'll have to scroll over the blank rows where I don't have access to the sources.) I'll leave you another note when I complete the analysis. Thanks for any feedback or corrections. -- Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 13:13, 18 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Latin American 10,000 Challenge invite

edit

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Latin America/The 10,000 Challenge ‎ has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Argentina etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Latin American content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon. If you would like to see this happening for Latin America, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Latin America, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!♦ --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 00:24, 27 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
