Feedback on your article

@Yifanwu9: Your new text is definitely a large improvement in terms of the content. That said, it seems to involve quite a lot of copying and pasting and/or or direct quoting—including from the book itself. Some examples are:

"Steve Krug currently spends most of his time teaching usability workshops, consulting, and watching black-and-white movies from '30s and '40s. "

"Take names as an example: cute or clever names, marketing induced names, company-specific names, and unfamiliar technical names."

These both seem to be copied, without quotes, from the book itself.

As the curriculum from WikiEdu made clear and as Altsalt made clear in quiz section, copying and pasting text is definitely not OK because it causes copyright problems for Wikipedia. As the material explains, this includes close paraphrasing, extensive quoting, translation, and so on. I my advice is to review this material again, blank the text here, and start again and to make sure that there is close paraphrasing or copying of text.

Let me and Altsalt know once you have finished that and feel free to get in touch if you'd like to talk more about how to move forward with this. —mako๛ 02:06, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

I would also like to point out that you need to think about the Quality of the content, not just the Quantity! Let us know when we should take a look again Yifanwu9.  一 Salt ♨️🚲🧂🧙‍♂️🐧🎓⚔️☠️ (talk) 03:05, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
