The videos and the interactive training are great teaching tools.
I feel like there could be more activities for the training rather than a quick run through.
Explanation of the signature, I didn't think it just to be the tildes, I thought I had to write my name in.

It was great, Wish there was more.

... Nothing; all of the main components seemed to be there. The information presented seemed to be adequate enough for a beginner to understand the basics.
... Nothing; the tutorial was to the point.
... I like it, but my concern was with exiting the hints. When pressing the arrow, the tutorial continues but when you click X it stops. It was hard to find my place in the tutorial afterwards and I felt a bit lost until I gave up and restarted it, realizing that I shouldn't press X. Besides that, I think the tutorial was helpful with my first user experience with Wikipedia.

This training was very informative and helped lay out the specifics in creating your on wiki page.
Some things were still a little difficult to understand, such as citations and how to include pictures with the correct format, however, I know we will be discussing more and more of these topics in class and with a librarian so I feel as though I will understand more of what is expected after doing so.
I didn't feel as though anything was missing.
Everything in this training was necessary and was definitely needed in order to make a successful wiki page.
I did not try the interactive editing tutorial, but based off what it said it is going to be useful to have and getting other peoples opinions and feedback on things is what will help you become a better writer. Just remember to not take anything personally because it is all for our benefit.

The tutorial is pretty thorough and answered a lot of my initial questions.
There is a lot of information, which means I will have to look up a lot of this information again in the future.
I can't think of anything that was missing.
I thought the "advanced" section was misnamed, not unnecessary. The advanced section was more along the lines of random bits of information. The only thing that felt advanced was the "Adding images and other media" slide.

The tutorial assumed I was a beginner. It would have been nice if some script at the beginning parsed my username to "intelligently" provide me a tutorial tailored to my likely ignorance based on my contributions.
An example of an editorial disagreement that was amicably resolved using Talk among users.
I only needed a small fraction of the tutorial.
It was great except that I kept getting interrupted by the message that I am not a recognized, verified contributor to Wikipedia. Then, when I pursued this latter message, the editing tutorial messages followed onto the pages for getting recognized.

Better links within the interactive editing tutorial, as it is still rather glitchy.
...
Useful as it allows us to practise what we have just learnt.

Very thorough and user friendly experience.
Navigation back to training page is hard.
Maybe a final 'project' at the end requiring the user to edit an article with requirements would be good.
The step by step approach was useful and easy to understand.

The training was straightforward, and I really liked the guided practice for editing.
A lot of it felt redundant, because it felt like common sense when it was said the first time, and then you had me watch a video about it, and I started to feel like it was wasting my time.
I can't think of anything that was missing, but I think it would be nice if you could have a guided editing practice that you could go back to even after the training was finished and that you could keep going back to if you want to practice certain things, just so you can practice and check your work.
The "edit" video that was about the edit button seemed a little pointless. If I'm taking this training, I'm probably already interested in editing a page, so adding a little promo for editing seemed excessive.
This was the best part of the module, in my opinion. Because I am already familiar with academic writing, plagiarism, and common courtesy, a lot of this training seemed like common sense, to me, but the editing tutorial was really helpful and gave me a lot of confidence that I could figure out how to edit an article, if I want to.

I liked how there were videos to give better explanations of how to do something on Wikipedia.
What I didn't like is that some of the information seemed repetitive at times.
There was nothing missing from this training module.

I don't know yet! Maybe there's some weird wiki magic I am unaware of? I know most of what to do that I think I need to do.

The videos were short but covered all of the necessary material.
The codes seem as though they will be somewhat difficult for those without coding knowledge to learn.
Nothing comes to mind.
Explaining how to make words bold seems rather self-explanatory when there's a button on the edit page for it.
It was fairly helpful, though it disappeared at one point and I couldn't find it again.

...Really don't have feedback for aspects I didn't like. Again, very well done, well designed, user-friendly.
...I suppose the more experienced that I become editing Wikipedia articles may suggest something, but nothing at this time.
...All was good. As much information as a person could want, and the extra embedded links make additional content available for those who wish to click to explore further.

It was a very helpful introduction for me: it was at an appropriate level, summarized the most important information, and provided links for more detailed information. I'd be much more interested, however, in what my students might think about it.
Nothing comes to mind right now. Again, I'd be interested in knowing whether or not my students would agree with my comments above.
There was nothing missing because you provided links to videos and (especially) articles that provided additional information.

worked ok but not being able to go right back to where I was in the tutorial was a bit annoying. ...
As the instructor I thought it was important to go through the student training myself. Great job all around. Barn-stars for everyone involved. --KatieBU (talk) 17:24, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There should be a like user's manual on the basic knowledge on editing.
Few video tutorials

... It was very informative about the basic details of training on wikipedia. It gives people a good head start to editing articles on wikipedia.
... There was nothing that I didn't like.
... There was nothing missing.
... There was nothing unneccesary
... It did a great job of actually showing how to do things. It is easier to learn when you have a real life example of something.

Plenty of information
A lot of reading and videos
How to create a user page?
Nothing really
It was actually kind of hard and difficult to remember what to do next --Kikischiciano (talk) 21:28, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

...The fact that the content was straightforward and easy to comprehend. The articles explained the process in-depth, providing a litany of helpful content and access to elements of the expansive Wikipedia community.
...
...
... The edit warring article contained repetitive information (e.g., the description of the 3RRR policy). Some concepts were described nearly verbatim from paragraph to paragraph, with no new contributing content to justify the repetition.

I enjoyed how easy it was to learn how to edit, particularly with the new beta features.
The course seemed a bit long.
I would have liked less focus on the "ethic" of editing on Wikipedia and more practice on actually editing as well as the "code" that is used to edit.
Wikipedia's training seems to focus a lot on rules for an internet community based on a lack of formal rules.
I really enjoyed the ability to actually practice the skill of editing.
--Vnguyen518 (talk) 16:32, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The interactive editing training. Very helpful. ...
Some photos were awkwardly placed in the pages without much context. ...
Slight background information about the beginning of Wikipedia could have been helpful/interesting at the start. ...
The superfluous "pep talk" text and videos. ...
I thought it was smooth and accurate. In very few cases did the directions lack clarity.

... It was very in depth and explained how Wikipedia worked. The visual images and videos were very helpful for me.
... Sometime I got lost in how certain things worked. The coding in particular was difficult for me to grasp.
... I just started using Wikipedia in this sense, so I really don't know what could be added at this time.
... Nothing as far as I know.
... I was confused at times where I was supposed to make the edits. After a few try's I stopped the interactive editing tutorial and just went back to the training tutorial. --AMC-er93 (talk) 00:09, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

...I particularly like having links to articles associated with how to edit and other various topics such as how to perfect articles and being able to bookmark these links. Unlike a regular encyclopedia or help page the information can be updated and made easier to understand through others.
...I did not enjoy the videos because I felt as if the text was more explanatory.
...I feel that a better introduction to the sandbox would leave me feeling more confident about becoming a wikopedian.
...The videos didn't seem to offer much guidance aside from the one about picture uploads.
...I much prefer the interactive editing tool because of the simplicity it provides.
--Bhardy7 (talk) 07:01, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

...The tutorials were confusing and did not help much. Horrible instruction.
...The instruction window in front of the buttons they are telling you to press in the tutorial. The window should be somewhere else.

The orientation just didn't teach the technical details of writing a wiki but also the do's and don'ts of being an editor on Wikipedia
...
I think you can include a hands on tutorial of creating and publishing a new sample article on Wikipedia.
...
The interactive editing tutorial was very helpful and gave step-by-step guidance on editing on wikipedia.

I liked the way entire training module is designed. At the end of this training, I have a basic idea of how wikipedia works, its rules and policies, how to edit articles, how to communicate with other editors and get help.

Its perfect for the beginners. They can practice all the basic features from these tutorials.

The tutorial was very informative, clear and easy to follow. I may go through it again just to have the practice. Can't wait to become active in the Wikipedia community. Sending a big thank you to JIMBO for staying true to his entrepreneurial spirit and for not giving in to advertising banners!
... Learning how to code on Wikipedia.
... The confusing path to complete the training.
... A better flow throughout the training to limit confusion.
... The amount of clicks to get through the training.
... All in all it wasn't too bad. Very informative. --Kzwiener (talk) 00:16, 2 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
... The information on Wikipedia's core values.
... Some of the charts and graphs were confusing. Specifically, the chart depicted the science articles that were started, stubbed, etc.
... More information on the actual writing style of Wikipedia.
...
... That was one of the best parts. Very helpful.

...A through qualitative analysis of what is editable and what kinds of information you shouldn't
...pretty essential.

... how there was a video and such detailed explanation of everything.
... everything was pretty straight forward, no complaints
... more visuals, minus the videos. Some stuff didn't have videos, it was okay but i prefer the videos.
... the explanations plus the videos, maybe just have one or the other.
... i liked it. Shows step by step

Gave a good general overview of the expectations of Wikipedia as well as how the website functions.
Had to reload the training page after one of the interactive editing tutorials.
An explicit example on how to move an article from your sandbox to a main page
Most of the information presented was relevant.
It was very useful in showing how editing an actual article or sandbox would be like.

...It was a lot of information all at once. I most likely will have to back and rematch the videos and read when I am editing or creating a Wikipedia page.
...It was very thorough.
...Repetitiveness on being polite to others. Keeping it professional is very important in a college setting when editing papers, etc.
