Hi. Adam is off for a bit due some unexpected medical issues, and I'll be covering his classes. Is there anything I can help you with? Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:17, 12 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable sources

Hello. There are a number of issues with the edits you have restored to Third-wave feminism, so I have started a talk page discussion at Talk:Third-wave feminism. Thanks. Grayfell (talk) 04:55, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Quick questions

Hello, DrHeller. I've been paying attention to the class you're teaching this semester, since one of your students picked an article I've been involved with in the past. Specifically the lipstick lesbian article. I had two quick questions:

1) What, if any, article improvement assistance should I give when your student is working on it? For example, once they're adding references, if I notice they aren't formatted properly, is it okay if I fix that? Or should I be completely hands-off with their work?

2) I notice on the course page that you have two different wikilinks for the article, one just being the capitalized one at Lipstick Lesbian. Is there a reason for that being there? Is it okay if I just make that into a redirect link to the proper article at Lipstick lesbian?

I hope your students have a lot of fun with your course and maybe even stay on as Wikipedians in the future! Silver seren^C 23:36, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

hello, thanks for all your help! Redirecting to the proper article is fantastic, thank you.

Students have to write a series of research papers on the topic prior to editing, so most revisions are addition of info/citations, or elaborating on existing points based on research. Students must engage with their page for a week after its live so you can message them to make changes or to discuss something. You can also make changes--they monitor any changes made to the page over the week and evaluate if they support the change or want to put it in talk etc. I also look over the page and request some changes be made, but this takes a couple days to get from me to them to the page. Working with editors in various ways is part of what I want them to learn, so please feel free to engage! DrHeller (talk) 23:51, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
