DYK for Fence Cutting Wars
edit | On 24 December 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Fence Cutting Wars, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the Fence Cutting Wars caused more than 20 million dollars of damage in Texas by 1883? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fence Cutting Wars. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |
Fantastic article!
editHi, I'm Eryk from the Wiki Education Foundation. I happened to notice the really great work you did on the Fence Cutting Wars article! I wondered if you'd be interested in sharing some of your experiences working on this site for our blog? We could use your real name or your Wikipedia username. We find students like to participate since it gives them a pretty positive search result related to the field they're studying in. If you have a minute, you can drop me an e-mail at eryk@wikiedu.org, mention your username and what course you were in, and answer any of the following questions, and I'd be excited to get some attention directed toward your good work.
- Did you have any experience with Wikipedia before the class started? What did you think of Wikipedia before you started work on this assignment?
- How did you find the process of writing a Wikipedia article, compared to if you had written a traditional paper on the topic?
- Do you think you learned more about your subject as a result of writing for Wikipedia? What kind of work did you have to do, or do differently, that you may not have needed to do otherwise?
- What was the DYK process like for you? That's a big deal for Wikipedia articles, were you happy to see you were nominated?
- Do you think you'll come back to Wikipedia now that the course is finished?
- What are your goals (career or academics wise?)
Thanks so much for your time! Eryk (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:13, 7 January 2015 (UTC)
