INF1001 - Assignment 2 Question
[edit]Hi Btgard... between the article's talk page and your talk page, there shouldn't likely be any other place that someone would have responded to your proposals or edit (unless they weren't published anywhere). I think people in the course are still getting the hang of leaving talk messages, though, so you may not get many. Gabby.resch (talk) 04:54, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
Welcome
[edit]Hi, Btgard, and welcome to both Wikipedia and INF1001! I don't want to spoil season 4 for you, other than to suggest that you should hurry up and finish it, as you will find season 5 to be directly relevant to this course (especially the DVD extras). Also, find some of the interviews with David Simon that came out around the time of season 5 (New York Times, Vice, Atlantic Monthly maybe). I actually cited interviews with David Simon, as well as season 5 episodes in papers I wrote for INF1001. Anyway, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you have any questions. Here are some pages that you might find useful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- An even more extensive resource for editing
- What makes a topic worthy of inclusion
- How to write a great article
- Help pages
- Evolution of an article
If you're new to U of T, the best cheap, fresh coffee is at the Campus General Store across the street from Bissell (80 cents if you bring a mug), the great halls in University College and the Hart House library are the best and most serene places to read, and the two most important people to get to know at the Faculty of Information are Christine Chan at the front desk, and Aida, the cleaning lady.--Gabby.resch (talk) 14:58, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
