General instruction
  • You are going to see history of pages on Wikipedia to learn how volunteers collaboratively develop content and media. We would like you to learn from the edits made by our students in the past terms. The list of terms, students and articles can be found at user:Taweetham/WEP.
  • All tasks must be answered by using Special:Diff. See Help:Diff for further detailed instructions and see an example below
Tasks
  1. Read WP:NOT. Find an example of student edit on an article AND warning message that the student received on his/her talk page.
  2. Read Wikipedia:Edit warring. Find an example of student edits on an article (it requires several edits to be an edit warring) AND warning that the student received on his/her talk page.
  3. Read WP:COPYVIO. Find an example of a student who has been warned about it on his/her talk page. Find an example (Wikipedia diff on an article) where copyrighted media (image, VDO or sound files) is deleted from Wikimedia Commons and removed from an article.

Please leave your answer below. (Leave a reply in this section of your talkpage.) --Taweetham (talk) 06:09, 6 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

The deadline is midnight (UTC) Thursday 10th May, 2018 --Taweetham (talk) 06:41, 6 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

  • TASK 1. example of student edit AND warning message that the student received on his/her talk page:
  • TASK 2. example of student edits (it requires several edits to be an edit warring) AND warning that the student received on his/her talk page:
  • TASK 3. example of a student who has been warned about it on his/her talk page. Find an example (Wikipedia diff on an article) where copyrighted media (image, VDO or sound files) is deleted from Wikimedia Commons and removed from an article.

  1. The proper way to show diff is to put new version on the right-hand side, for example, Special:Diff/827962046/828457414
  2.   Done TASK 1 is good.
  3.   Done TASK 2 is acceptable but you should show several reverts.

A. Proposal

Please propose a topic or two that you wish to write on Wikipedia. You should read all related articles/policies on Wikipedia and provide the following information.

  1. Your proposed article(s) (New or existing STUB article relating to a chemical compound, reaction, equipment or technique - or related to your major/interest. (see Category:Stub-Class Chemistry articles))
    • For new article, explain briefly why it passes WP:NOTE.
    • For existing topics, explain briefly the state/structure of the current article.
      • Is the structure & existing content appropriate?
        • If not, restructure or remove content as per WP:MOS and WP:NOT before you move to the next stage.
  2. Brief outline of your contributions to the article
    • In what section & what content
      • Make sure it belongs to the article and it is encyclopedic. See WP:NOT for things that should NOT be added.
      • Make sure that it is not redundant to existing articles. Use Google search "site:wikipedia.org" rather than Wikipedia search.
    • References for the article
    • Media files (photo/VDO/drawing) to be used in the article.
      • You may suggest plan to create your own work and upload to Wikimedia Commons
      • You may use existing media on Wikimedia Commons. Use Google image search "site:wikimedia.org" rather than Wikimedia Commons search.
  3. Examples/template/related articles that you will use as a model to develop your nominated article.
    • In terms of WP:MOS/formatting - your article will have similar style/format/tone to these articles.
    • In terms of content - your article will link to or will be linked from these articles.

Please leave your answer below. (Leave a reply in this section of your talkpage.)

The deadline is midnight (UTC) Tuesday 15th May, 2018. --Taweetham (talk) 01:21, 12 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
A. Proposal

The topic I chose is an existing article called endothermic gas from the physical chemistry category in the education stub category. Currently, this article only provides the definition of endothermic gas, briefly describing what it means and a few examples to of endothermic gases for example Hydrogen, Nitrogen and Carbon Monoxide. It does not consist of external references, uses, process and so on. Therefore, I would like to add more information to the article, for example talk about gas production, heat treatment, endothermic gas generation process and gas generation problems. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amrita.sethi28 (talkcontribs) 13:07, 15 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

2. Brief outline of your contributions to the article:

I would like to add more information to the article, for example talk about gas production, heat treatment, endothermic gas generation process and gas generation problems. - Firstly I will discuss the basic principles of heat treatment in the introduction , then briefly introduce the endothermic generator operation. - Secondly, in the body of the article, I will discuss the key components and basic construction of an Endothermic Gas Generator. - Thirdly, I will discuss the Chemistry of the Endothermic Gas Generator like basic compositions and reactions involved in the process. - Fourthly, I will discuss Typical Applications of Endothermic Gas Generators - Lastly, I will mention some common Generator problems

References: The main source of information that I have gathered is from the #1 Heat Treat Industrial Furnace Manufacturer in the United States by Daniel H. Herring: http://heat-treat-doctor.com/documents/Endothermic%20Gas%20Generators.pdf

3. Examples/template/related articles that you will use as a model to develop your nominated article. I will try to follow the formatting and style of the following article regarding a similar topic - chemical oxygen generators where they have included various images and diagrams for a better understanding - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_oxygen_generator

B. Approval

Your topic is approved and added to the course page. Please develop the proposal into the first draft in your sandbox.

  • For existing article, you may copy some parts of the existing article to your sandbox to see how revision/integration of content would work. You will copy the code back to the article at later stage.
  • For new article, you may want to copy parts of a template article to your sandbox to see what sections are necessary. The sandbox will be moved to the article namespace at later stage. Please do not click "Submit your draft for review!". The function is not applicable to our course.

In all cases, do not copy more than what is necessary. For example, do not copy any categories to your sandbox. --Taweetham (talk) 00:45, 17 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

A. Reviewer assigned

I've accepted to be your reviewer. I'll in contact with you throughout the assignment. If you have any questions or need any help please let me know. --Athikhun.suw (talk) 10:24, 20 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your contribution to endothermic gas, although it's still in your sandbox. I suggest you write more —as it's now too early to give further comments— and pay attention to this manual of style, especially in article type section. Different article types have different headings and specific guidelines. Also, it's important to support your work with reliable sources. I look forward to seeing more work done soon. Keep it up! --Athikhun.suw (talk) 00:12, 26 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Could you please guide me on what to do next? --— Preceding unsigned comment added by Amrita.sethi28 (talkcontribs) 09:56, 4 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Sorry for long delay. Please move the content from your sandbox into the existing article, Endothermic gas. This can be done by editing source at your sandbox - copying the wiki code & pasting it to the existing article. Make sure you leave the category and other section of the article intact. --Taweetham (talk) 14:28, 29 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Week 12: Wrap up

edit

Thanks for moving your content into the article. You should now edit the article directly. Find more information or images to illustrate the subject matter. You have approximately 10 days left to complete this task. --Taweetham (talk) 14:33, 7 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
