- @SheilaSh11 Citations alone generally do not add value. Beyond adding a citation alone, make sure to provide a sentence or two within the article itself to express your contribution in context (which the citation will support). This will demonstrate how your addition adds to the overall knowledge in the article. Please add a sentence or two to the first article you edited and then ping me here when done. FULBERT (talk) 00:47, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
- @SheilaSh11 Your second edit does not fulfill the Wikipedia policy of using reliable, third-party WP:INDEPENDENT published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy WP:RELIABLE. As discussed in the assignment and class, always use a reliable source, such as an academic journal article or another high-quality reference. Avoid blogs, corporate websites, reviews, press releases, sources where we cannot determine author expertise or bias, and opinion pieces as they generally do not count as reliable sources. Please either assign yourself a different article and add a credible source that is needed to it or find and cite a more reliable source to the one you edited. Ping me here when done, and I will review. FULBERT (talk) 00:49, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Growth team newsletter #23
Welcome to the twenty-third newsletter from the Growth team!
Highlights
- Mentorship: We released the new structured mentor list to all wikis. This change makes mentorship easier to setup, manage and use.
- Positive reinforcement: An improved impact module is available for testing.
Positive reinforcement: an improved impact module to test
The goal of the Growth team is to encourage newcomers to try editing for the first time, and encourage them to keep editing. We want to increase newcomers' motivation by showing them how impactful their edits are.
Newcomers have access to an impact module; you can find yours at Special:Impact. The revised impact module provides new editors with more context about their impact. It will display the number of edits, the number of thanks received, the last time they edited, the number of consecutive days they edited, and the number of views for the articles they edited.
This module will soon be available at our pilot wikis starting December 1. You can already test this new module at Beta Wikipedia. For safety reasons, do not use your regular account and password at Beta wiki. Create a new, specific account for this wiki, with a different password.
Structured tasks: improvements based on patroller feedback
After the deployment of Structured tasks, we received feedback from various communities regarding how patrollers of recent changes were feeling overwhelmed by an increase in edits to check, and how some edits were poor quality or of poor relevance.
We made several improvements based on the feedback we received. Several points of improvement have already been addressed:
- Patroller fatigue:
- By default, newcomers can complete up to 25 "add a link" tasks and 25 "add an image" tasks per day. If patrollers are overburdened, each community can use Special:EditGrowthConfig to lower that limit.
- Quality of edits: what constitutes a "quality edit" is not a well defined concept. We initiated a discussion and summarized our findings. We also worked on the following improvements:
- Add a Link
- Underlinked articles are now prioritized, so it's less likely that newcomers are adding links to articles that are already have a lot of links.
- The confidence score was increased, so suggestions are more likely to be accurate.
- The default number of suggested links per article has been lowered to 3. This can be changed at Special:EditGrowthConfig. Communities can also exclude articles containing certain templates or categories from being suggested.
- Add an Image
- Lists will no longer receive "add an image" suggestions.
- Disambiguation pages will no longer receive "add an image" suggestions.
- We have many further improvements we plan to make to "add an image" in early 2023. [2]
- Add a Link
The Positive Reinforcement project will also address some of the concerns around encouraging newcomers to progress to higher value edits. The Growth team will soon work on strategies geared at "Leveling up" newcomers so they progress from easy to more difficult tasks.
Recent changes
- All Wikipedias now have the same onboarding experience. Previously, at a few wikis, 20% of new accounts didn't get the Growth features when they created their account. These 20% of new accounts were used as a control group, in order to know if the Growth features were changing newcomers' behavior. Experiments have shown that Growth features improve activation and retention, and as we want to provide the same onboarding experience at all Wikipedias, we have decided to remove the control groups. We will utilize control groups when testing new features, and German Wikipedia keeps a control group at their request. [3]
- The quality score for "add a link" suggestions will change. We will suggest less links for each article, but they will be more accurate. We will first deploy it at our pilot wikis, and then to all other wikis where this feature is available. [4][5]
- Growth's features FAQ has been updated and expanded. This page centralizes all the information about Growth features. We invite you to read it, and, if you can, to translate it.
News for mentors
- All Wikipedias can now setup and manage a mentorship program in an easier way.
- We changed the process to make it more reliable, easier to improve and easier to use.
- Wikipedias where mentorship hasn't been enabled yet can turn mentorship on following a new process. When done, mentors can sign-up by visiting
Special:MentorDashboard
. - Wikipedias where the list of mentors already existed have been converted to the new system.
- A new special page —
Special:ManageMentors
— now displays the list of mentors. This page can be transcluded on any other page. There are also new processes to signup as a mentor or to quit mentorship, and we improved community mentorship management.
- The Mentor dashboard's "Your mentees" module will have a new footer, called "Recent changes by your mentees". This footer will include a link to Recent changes, where mentors can see only edits made by their own mentees. [6]
Deployments
- Add a link has been deployed to a 5th round of wikis. [7]

We plan to have a more regular newsletter, every two months. We also want to know if the current format suits you! Let us know what you like, what you like less and your suggestions of improvements: leave us a comment, in your preferred language.

Week 5/ Janyu150
For week 5, I edited Adult education and Higher Education in the United States. Here is the diff for Adult education and here is the diff for Higher Education in the United States.
In the Adult education article, I added the fact that adult learner motivation also affects retention since the article only stated that it affected enrollment. I also cleaned up the second paragraph in the second paragraph of the Challenges and motivating factors section so that the paragraph was less verbose and more clear.
In the Higher Education in the United States article, I added another contributing factor to declining enrollment which I found to be declining state budgets in higher education institutions.
In this process, I didn't know state budgets also affected declining enrollment and I also learned how to provide clarity in my article writing since I tend to be verbose.--Janyu150 (talk) 04:59, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Janyu150 Your first edit was reverted, and I agree with the comment. Can you please clarify what point you were trying to make and explain it further in the article, or work on a different one and ping me here again when done and I will review? FULBERT (talk) 01:39, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
- @FULBERT
- I still see my edits in the article and it looks like their comments were reverted or removed because I don't see their comments so I'm not sure what was said or they took back what they said. I was trying to say that when adult learners are motivated with pursuing their education, it not only affects enrollment in higher education programs but it also affects retention. I felt it was important to include the word retention and discuss retention because a higher education institution's livelihood not only relies on enrollment but also retention. This is the sentence where I included retention "Meanwhile, research illustrates that understanding the motivations and barriers of adult learners can increase their enrollment and retention." ~~ Janyu150 (talk) 05:05, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Janyu150 Two of the words you used remain in the second article, so please add more and a citation or assign and edit another article for this week. You can have an extension on this if needed. Ping me here when done. FULBERT (talk) 00:43, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
- @FULBERT Thank you professor! I am done with my edits. This time I edited the Adult Education in a different section. Here is the diff I added two sentences about other institutional barriers that adult students face and a citation to support my sentences. Janyu150 (talk) 04:21, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

I edited two articles, Digital transformation and Digitization. Here are their diff and diff2. This time, I added ciataion more skillfully and learned about digitization through this assignment. XingboGao (talk) 09:28, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
- @XingboGao You have not completed the previous weeks' assignments as requested. Please do those before I review this one. Ping me here when complete and I will review. FULBERT (talk) 01:57, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
- @FULBERT I think I have completed all the assignments. If I have missed anything, please remind me. Thank you. XingboGao (talk) 00:13, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

- @FULBERT
- I put all assignments here.
- Week 1: Hi, this is Xingbo Gao. Actually, I don't use Wikipedia very often because almost all the professors don't allow me to use it. However, I am willing to learn relevant knowledge. XingboGao (talk) 04:05, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
- Week 2:The article I edited is Lottery. Here is the diff. A sentence in the article needed citation, so I added it. Regarding the lottery rule, there is no evidence to prove it in the article. This assignment made me understand how to modify a Wikipedia article. XingboGao (talk) 04:05, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
- Week 3: This week I edited an article named Government revenue. Here is the diff. I read this article carefully, which mainly introduces the revenue of the government. One paragraph show the government's tax revenue. However, I found that lottery tax revenue was not among them. So I added it in the paragraph. I make the government's taxes more comprehensive in this article. XingboGao (talk) 04:05, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
- Week 4:I edited Chinese tea this week and I added some information about tea therapy. Here is the diff. After this editing, I know that in order to change the article, you have to have proof. I can't edit Wikipedia until I find strong evidence in the database. XingboGao (talk) 04:05, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
- Week 5: I edited two articles, Digital transformation and Digitization. Here are their diff and diff2. This time, I added ciataion more skillfully and learned about digitization through this assignment. XingboGao (talk) 04:05, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

Rt2510 (talk) 02:12, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Rt2510 I agree with the second editor's revert of your edit, as it seemed a marketing opinion and thus not credible information. Please either add something of more substance to the second article or assign and edit an additional article. You can take until the end of the week for this edit if needed. Ping me here when done. FULBERT (talk) 00:52, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Week 6/BL33701
I edited the Non-fungible token this week. Here is the diff. Added speculation to NFT and added citations. Learned about the risks of NFT money laundering. The second article is Cash. Here is the diff. Added a citation for digital currency. And learn about the history of coins.BL33701 (talk) 16:12, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
- @BL33701 Citations alone generally do not add value. Beyond adding a citation alone, make sure to provide a sentence or two within the article itself to express your contribution in context (which the citation will support). This will demonstrate how your addition adds to the overall knowledge in the article. Please add a sentence or two to the article you edited and then ping me here when done. FULBERT (talk) 01:41, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
- I made a new modification in Cash. This is diff. Please let me know if there are any more problems, thank you very much!BL33701 (talk) 04:26, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

Week 7/JayHTCVPN
Hi, this week I edited two articles. The first is Culinary arts, and here is the diff. The second is Obesity in Indonesia, and here is the diff. What I would like to share is that when I researched related sources for Wikipedia articles, I added my thinking journey to the research. I can learn new knowledge through the whole process, such as trends and news around the world. There is one more week to edit. Cheer up! JayHTCVPN (talk) 07:59, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
- @JayHTCVPN Your second edit does not fulfill the Wikipedia policy of using reliable, third-party WP:INDEPENDENT published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy WP:RELIABLE. As discussed in the assignment and class, always use a reliable source, such as an academic journal article or another high-quality reference. Avoid blogs, corporate websites, reviews, press releases, sources where we cannot determine author expertise or bias, and opinion pieces as they generally do not count as reliable sources. Please either assign yourself a different article and add a credible source that is needed to it or find and cite a more reliable source to the one you edited. Ping me here when done, and I will review. FULBERT (talk) 15:49, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

The ariticle I add the citations are about the Aging of China and Family planning policies of China. I add the part of detail about the reason leads to the population problems in China.
