I still have a long ways to go on editing Ghost work but it's fine. The challenging part is that it isn't a mainstream subject that people or Google really knows about. So I can only really expand on MTurk (an example of ghost work) and crowdfunding/crowdsourcing. And honestly given that there are only three headed on the Wiki page, I would really like to change that and make it at least appear as if this article is legitimate.

Not sure crowdfuncing/crowdsourcing is really an example of Ghost Work. Content moderation is a better example. Expanding on existing research on MTurk is a good idea, and the reading for Week 12 talks about a few different companies. The article could also use some better/clearer subheads. This was actually originally created by a student in this class in Fall 2019, and has undergone some edits since but there is plenty more to do. You might also look into work around ghost work and worker's rights as it's own section.Adrishaw (talk) 19:53, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

An editor under the name "Goszei" has edited my page since I made the final edits to live Wikipedia. They labeled their changes as "General fixes." I couldn't really tell what had changed. All I noticed was that they subtracted 6 words from the article. I thanked them anyway because the edits were minor.
