Speedy deletion nomination of Social justice sexuality project
[edit]Hello Kyraocity,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Social justice sexuality project for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Dane2007 (talk) 18:51, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
I have deleted the article as a copyright violation, because the bulk of the content appears to have been copied from [from http://nbjc.org/media-center/newsletters/may-19-2012 here]. All content you add to this wiki needs to be written in your own words please. — Diannaa (talk) 20:17, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

WHAT I GOT THIS SUMMER - SOC 1005 Wikipedia Editing Project
[edit]This summer, June-July 2016, twelve of my students learned to edit Wikipedia. I asked them to share what they took away from the experience. How did it change their sociological imagination about power, oppression, and making a difference online and in real-life. --sheridanford (talk) 01:30, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

MY TAKEAWAYS Mr Dunn Mills (talk) 22:18, 18 July 2016 (UTC)MR DUNN MILLS
[edit]- This six-week crash course in Sociology was full of enlightening content that helped me develop my "sociological imagination" as C. Wright Mills put it. I learned to look at sociological issues and human behaviors from both a macro and a micro-level by understanding personal biographies within the greater context of history. This development has already changed my thought processes in great ways!
- Another big takeaway from our short-lived course is that I now have a better understanding of structural oppression and power differentials. Power is not necessarily something that one has, but it is something that can be found through the structures that societies' institutions (i.e. family, education, work, economy, state) create.
- Two of the Wikipedia topics that I edited throughout the course are Brexit and Coase Theorem.

In a matter of six-week course, I learned so much from my sociology class. I learned that individuals’ problems are public issues or vs.; that there are external social and political power, which are constantly shaping our society. Some of these changes affect our lives in a negative way and yet many of us might not be aware of what is going on around us. "Sociological Imagination (The Promise of Sociology), C. Wright Mills 1959". I also learned how symbolic interactionist theory, functionalism, and conflict theory are in practice in our everyday life. Additionally, I learned how to use Wikipedia and how to make contributions. My experience editing Wikipedia was that at the beginning, I faced a cultural lag; I felt intimidated. However, when I attended to a Wikipedia meetup at MoMa on June 29, 2016 after the workshop, I was fascinated about this encyclopedia and could not wait to start editing. I must admit though that I did not like the feelings when I noticed that my previous editing was reverted; I was disappointed. Despite of my reverted experience, I believe that having a free-to-the public encyclopedia where anybody can edit; it can bring more positive outcome to our society in the new media and technology era.

- Through this class, I have learn many thing in regards to society. One of the most interesting terms that I learn is the sociology imagination. Sociology imagination describes that our private action are affected by our public issues. This is a concept that I have never learn before. Before taking this class, I feel that all of my consequences are a result of my own action. Through the Wikipedia project, I was able to realize an issue and do research and take a certain action on these issues. This make me feel empowered.

ARTICLES EDITED BY CBWSoc1005
[edit]Throughout this course it has changed my perception of what sociology is. When I first took the course I thought that sociology was the study of society but it is much greater than that. Wikipedia represented much more than just a website it was a model to test our theories about sociology throughout the course that we learned. The most profound impact that the course had on me was the day in class in which I said the phrase "minority of minorities". It showed me that our society shaped what the definition of a minority was even though in this situation it made no sense. The sociological perspective can empower anyone who uses it in a positive fashion.

If you wish to consider renaming your account you can do so at Special:GlobalRenameRequest. General documentation about changing names is at Wikipedia:Changing username. The name of your account mostly matters for conversations on wiki. If someone pings your account name, you get an alert. If your signature does not match your account name, and someone pings it, you would not get the alert that someone has called for you. Thanks, as always let me know if I can help with anything.

[edit]-Lacrosse -Fraternities & Sororities -Symbolic Interactionism https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Special:Contributions/Laxguy41
Before this introduction, I thought sociology was about the study of types of societies. What I've learned is that the study of sociology is more about how the society functions, stays together and how those inside a society interact. This course forced me to think more abstractly, developing my sociological imagination. A sociological imagination is necessary to understand and solve many social issues.

This sociology class has changed my outlook not only on society but on how sociology and the sociological imagination can be applied to just about every area of life, including Wikipedia. I learned about how to view societies from an objective standpoint in order to fully analyze and understand the similarities and differences between the customs and cultures. I also learned about the impact an individual has on society and how individual issues are a part of a much larger scale. This also lead to increasing my knowledge of power, oppression, and media levels and influences in our world. My knowledge of sociology was applied to learning about using and contributing to a new media outlet-Wikipedia. Although I was familiar with the website itself, I had no prior knowledge of what it was actually like to edit a Wiki page and to become a Wikipedian. I was able to apply aspects of sociology to learning and navigating my way around Wikipedia such as realizing how this global website has members from different cultures and backgrounds but come together to comply to the same set of rules in order to bring an objective perspective on a specific topic. Learning about Wikipedia was intimidating at first as there is a sense of alienation, but once I realized it was more like a community with a set of rules and morals, it was easier to continue working with Wikipedia and learning the ins and outs of the spoken and unspoken rules of editing. Before taking this class I saw Wikipedia as a website to provide a basic over view on a topic but not as a fully credible source, which was influenced from previous professors and their rules. However, after learning about how committed the Wikipedia community is and how often edits are viewed, reverted, and re-edited, this worldwide media outlet became more credible in my perspective. I really enjoyed learning about sociology as it is interesting and applicable to every day life. I find myself applying concepts and paradigms I learned and keeping my sociological imagination active in daily situations and interactions. Thank you for being such a motivational and optimistic professor who made learning sociology stimulating and fun! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dlou94 (talk • contribs) 14:07, 18 July 2016 (UTC)

Through this class I learned how sociology is much more than just the study of a society, and how there are far too many things in play to ever assume that the way someone acts is due to their own faults. Before this class I was getting rather frustrated because of the actions of others, but this class helped me understand that having a problem with individual people is foolish and that the system is what really needs to be focused on. This class confirmed a great deal of information that I already knew and introduced me to my biggest take away which is learning how to apply and analyze things by using sociological imagination. The open-mindedness one needs to see what is really going on was rather intense at first and still seems to be that way. There, like I said previously, are too many factors to come up with a short handed answer that can ever begin to be considered as correct. Using sociological imagination takes time to learn and work through as one needs to switch between macro and micro information and situations. The other thing that I found amazing is that most, if not all, personal troubles are not individual problems. The society deals with everyone's personal problems collectively, and coming from someone who is twice over a "left behind" (people who lose loved ones due to suicide) I have grown more understanding of more peoples' issues and have better understood that the world is not against me. I just unfortunately fell into a fraction of society that has to deal with it. My biggest question after taking this class is now, if all of this information and definitive proof is out there why does society have yet to change for the better? Why have we not accepted these truths and just corrected the wrongs?

==Invite to the African Destubathon==Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).
Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. It could be one of the content targets for your AfroCrowd group. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most geography, wildlife and women articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African women and any topic under the sun! Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles during your editathon or as independent editors, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. If you could help publicize this too and get more people involved I'd be grateful, thanks.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:55, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

It seems to be a technical problem in dashboard.wikiedu.org 2.0's code. It has been reported to the developers. (((The Quixotic Potato))) (talk) 21:51, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
Update: User:Sage (Wiki Ed) has fixed the software problem!
I found Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/Hunter College CUNY/AFPRL 29026 Intro to Hip Hop Culture and History (Fall 2016) and it lists Transgender representation in hip hop music and LGBT hip hop as two separate articles, even though they should be WP:MERGEd because they are about the same topic.
The same applies to Feminist activism in hip hop and Hip hop feminism.
The redlinked article Sexuality in Hip Hop is not a suitable topic for Wikipedia, please see WP:GNG.
The redlinked article Decoded Jay Z can be found here: Decoded_(book).
The redlinked article Brooklyn and Hip Hop is not a suitable topic for an article on Wikipedia.
The redlinked article Black Lives matter can be found here: Black Lives Matter.
Please read User_talk:JustJess_PhD#Some_feedback and the section below that one.
I will ping @Kaldari:. Kaldari is an experienced editor and probably willing to help you.
(((The Quixotic Potato))) (talk) 18:19, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Sheridan, I'm not sure I agree with everything stated above, but I agree it is very important to pick the articles carefully, as a large percentage of course-created articles end up being deleted or merged with other articles. If it seems likely that two topics will overlap substantially (for example Representation of black women in hip hop and Misogyny in hip hop culture, or Hip hop feminism and Feminist activism in hip hop) it will save everyone a lot of work if they are combined into a more general topic from the beginning. Wikipedia strives to have one comprehensive article on each topic rather than overlapping articles covering the same ground. Also, be aware that not every topic that would be good for a school paper is suitable for a Wikipedia article. For example, I doubt that Brooklyn and Hip Hop would survive a deletion nomination. Editing existing articles, like Decoded (book) and Black Lives Matter, is often a safer route to go. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns or if there's any way we can help. Kaldari (talk) 23:58, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- ping @The Quixotic Potato:: My students were learning from their mistakes. This was my first time coordinating a WikiEdu class. Learning as I go. Thanks for the notes. It seems several of our course editors were 1) duplicating existing articles they didn't realize already existed and 2) are creating article titles (red links) that are not notable. For instance, Brooklyn and Hip-hop should probably be an subheader within the article East Coast hip hop.
Not sure why this new section showed up now or if there's anything else to be done since the course has ended.
--sheridanford (talk) 02:51, 15 December 2016 (UTC)
- ping @TristanBlake:: See the comments above about Transgender representation in hip hop music and LGBT hip hop being merged WP:MERGE because they are about the same topic.
Yes, there is "anything else to be done", that is why I am here, if you want me to I can make a list... please start by merging Transgender representation in hip hop music & LGBT hip hop (see here for a failed attempt) and Feminist activism in hip hop & Hip hop feminism. If you do not know how to merge articles then you can ask for help at the WP:TEAHOUSE. Thanks in advance, (((The Quixotic Potato))) (talk) 04:09, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
- ping @The Quixotic Potato:: Thanks. I am not fully clear on your request or offer but it sounds like you want to make a list for us. A list of what exactly? And you're correct, I nor my students know how to merge articles. I will get help from our course go-to person. --sheridanford (talk) 15:44, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
- Hiya! Thank you. I'll try to explain what I am hoping to achieve but I am not a native speaker; feel free to ask questions if I am unclear. I am not an expert on feminism.
- I think that the articles Feminist activism in hip hop and Hip hop feminism overlap in scope. Ideally we wouldn't have articles that have roughly the same scope or significantly overlap in scope. In this case I think we can merge those articles into one.
- A single article that contains both feminist critique of hip hop culture and feminist activism in hip hop makes sense to me, because they seem to be very similar albeit that one is internal and the other external.
- Combining 2 articles into one is relatively difficult, it isn't as easy as copy pasting content from one article into the other one, because we have to attribute every single edit to the correct author for copyright reasons. A detailed explanation of why this is difficult can be found on the page WP:HISTMERGE. Don't worry about the technical details, I can ask someone to do that for us.
- Do you think that it would be a good idea to combine those articles? Or would you prefer to have 2 separate articles? If you are in favor of combining them, which title would you prefer, Feminist activism in hip hop or Hip hop feminism? I know little about feminism, so I was hoping that perhaps you could give your opinion on whether this is a good idea or not.

[edit]https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Race_and_Ethnicity_in_the_NHL
https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Goldstream_Provincial_Park#Restorative_Justice_and_Goldstream_Park
A white male student from Canada in my 2016 sociology summer course created the first article on the NHL. There was a race and ethnicity article on the NBA in the US but none about the NHL in Canada. In the second article, he intervened in his own inherent bias by learning why fishing was off limits to non native people at this park near his hometown. Before editing Wikipedia, he thought the law was racist. His study of the history changed his perspective. Content creation in collaborative, open-source networks matters!

[edit]Howdy SheridanFord, just wanted to let you know that due to some venue tech limitations, we've added new requirements for slides. For convenience, they are: IF you have slides, please either upload them as PDFs to Wikimedia Commons and post a link here, bring them in on USB drives as PDFs, or, if you're using Google Slides or similar software, post a link to them here. Fortunately, the deadline is when you go on stage for your talk. Doing so will avoid tech surprises on the day of. Due to venue tech limitations, we cannot guarantee being able to show your visual aids otherwise.
The lightning talk section, where the slides should be linked, is here; Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Wikipedia Day 2024#Lightning talks. Thank you, and see you Sunday! Enterprisey (talk!) 20:25, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks @Enterprisey! Unfortunately, I cannot make it down from Albany today after all. Left a note on the RSVP I made earlier to clarity my change in plans. I'd love to talk to a more senior editor about how to develop a campaign to assess articles on Black music and move them from start or sub class to assess them when appropriate as C-class or higher. The WP: Assess info says any autoconfirmed user can assess an article. thanks! Happy 2024 Wikipedia Day! sheridanford (talk) 14:20, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

2024 BAM209 Wikiedu Reviews
[edit]Professor Gaunt would like to post our reviews below! Kautera (talk) 17:05, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- What did you learn from becoming a Wikipedian? Before becoming a Wikipedia I Keira Autera learned how to enhance myself within the realm of technology. I learned how to engage myself within the universe of Wikipedia and various amount of sources to engage within my learning and life path. After I completed everything I developed more of a sense of myself and found a voice within my words.
- What fears did you overcome after making your first edit and why? Did the interface (text vs. visual) play a role? My main fear was not citing something correctly and being plagiarized for my work after submitting it given the fact this is my first time using and editing Wikipedia. The text played a role in developing hope and persistence to overcome my fear and ensure I follow the proper steps because I never want to make a mistake, and I always make sure my work is held accountable and proper. I am all about following the guidelines so I did not want to make a mistake.
- My top 1-3 insights from becoming an editor of Black Music articles. What did you learn about music as information or as a content gap regarding African Americans' music and history? Going in-depth about ethnomusicology and applying information to myself and becoming more knowledgeable. I learned that music, the way the words are said, and the sounds in the song speaks volumes and is connected to moments of time in history.
- My biggest lessons learned from editing my own interests or topics are expressing and finding myself and my voice, Using the Habits of the Mind, Learning to never hold back, and feeding my mind and my soul.
- What was my favorite edit (include a URL link and quote what you added) and why? African-American culture - "The practice has roots within the supernatural world. This alteration of the human experience was heavily influenced in order to create change." [1] Spirituality is very important to me and I was able to incorporate philosophy and integrate it into the world of spiritualities.
- What new competencies did you discover from editing? Teamwork, problem-solving, and leadership
- What new habits or new habits you might take on came from completing all the training as intended relative to your intellectual or academic fitness? To use the habits of mind to develop my own persistence to enhance myself and grow. To take risks, be bold, and to think interdependently.
- Anything else? Be bold. Share about anti-blackness or misogyny you noticed. Content gaps you improved. Why editing matters. Editing matters because you are allowed to share your voice and provide insight about your own mind and what is learned through the education of the self.

Music Theory
[edit]Dear friend, I remain annoyed that the discussion on Talk:Music_theory may not meet your request for "a collaborative response". I must confess that I may not have an entirely detached view of the Ewell affair. I never met him, I never spoke with him – let's leave that aside.
I do believe that we, in Europe, are way ahead of the problems he raised in the US – and were so quite some time before he raised them. I won't argue about this any more, but I'd like to be sure that you did not read my responses to your questions as "uncollaborative".
Please feel free to tell me what you think of all this, either on the Music theory talk page, or here or on my own talk page. I'll read whatever you may have to say with attention and interest. – Hucbald.SaintAmand (talk) 21:23, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
