Week 7 / zq2197

The first article I edited is the Fourth Industrial Revolution, here is the diff link. I added some economic challenges caused by this industrial revolution.

The second article I edited is the Robot, here is the diff link. I added one more type of industrial robots, robots in food and drinking industry.

From editing these two articles, I learned how the 4IR is reshaping the workforce through the integration of digital, physical, and biological technologies, leading to both job displacement and the creation of new roles. Moreover, it helps me understand the complex interplay between technology, skill requirements, and workforce dynamics in the context of the 4IR and the introduction of robots in lower-skilled jobs. Zq2197 (talk) 05:59, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

@Zq2197 Please assign yourself these articles in the Wiki Edu Dashboard and then please finish all the requirements of Assignment #7 and ping me here. I will then take a look at them and reply. FULBERT (talk) 17:02, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for replying! Here's the remaining part of the assignment.

My extra credit for Wikipedia was interesting and educational. It was wonderful but challenging to help a platform millions of people utilize for information. Investigating, writing, and following Wikipedia's values helped me to see the need of accuracy and verifiability in public information. I learned a great deal about how Wikipedia operates, particularly the collaborative nature of content creation and the need for reliable sources to support every claim. This experience also enhanced my critical thinking and editing abilities, as I was required to critically evaluate information and present it in a neutral, concise manner. I'm going to keep updating Wikipedia, but with a smaller concentration. Making sure that information is available to others and adding to the body of knowledge are concepts that inspire motivation. However, I am aware of the amount of effort required to make meaningful contributions and the responsibility that comes with changing information on such a popular site. Zq2197 (talk) 04:34, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

@Zq2197 Nice edits on these two final articles, and thanks for the overall feedback on this. I hope you find Wikipedia editing useful and continue with it. Let me know if you ever need assistance with Wikipedia in the future, and I hope you continue making positive and helpful contributions! Current with Week 7. FULBERT (talk) 12:45, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Week7/Swagsberyls

For my Week 7 Wikipedia extra credit assignment, I contributed to two articles: the International Space Station (ISS) [https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=International_Space_Station&diff=prev&oldid=1240192339 diff] and “United States v. Google LLC (2023).”[https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=United_States_v._Google_LLC_(2023)&diff=prev&oldid=1240192333 diff] For the ISS, I added a new section under “Operations” detailing recent challenges with Boeing’s Starliner and NASA’s potential reliance on SpaceX. In the Google case, I integrated updates on the DOJ’s 2024 antitrust ruling, considering remedies like breaking up Google’s business units. This assignment taught me the importance of maintaining neutrality and the value of contributing to a global knowledge base. I found the experience enriching and plan to continue editing on Wikipedia. ~~~~ Swagsberyls (talk) 01:25, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Here is the link for International Space Station (ISS) diff and United States v. Google LLC (2023) diff Swagsberyls (talk) 01:30, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

@Swagsberyls Please finish all parts of this assignment for this week and then ping me here. I will then take a look at it and reply. FULBERT (talk) 13:48, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Overall, this Wikipedia extra credit assignment was a valuable experience in applying research and writing skills to a real-world platform. I learned how to effectively navigate Wikipedia's guidelines, ensuring that my contributions were both accurate and constructive. I intend to continue editing on Wikipedia, as it offers a meaningful way to contribute to global knowledge while honing my own research and editing skills. @FULBERT Swagsberyls (talk) 13:59, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

@Swagsberyls Nice edits on these two final articles OR Nice image you added, and thanks for the overall feedback on this. I hope you find Wikipedia editing useful and continue with it. Let me know if you ever need assistance with Wikipedia in the future, and I hope you continue making positive and helpful contributions! Current with Week 7.
