A pie for you!

Hi GramaLorrie, congratulations on getting your account set up, and joining a team in our class! Here is a strawberry pie for you to share with your teammates :) Pete (talk) 17:46, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi Lorrie, you asked how I sent this. I used a feature called "WikiLove." It's easy to do: when you are looking at a user page or a user talk page (more on that in the next class, if it doesn't make sense to you) you will see a red valentine in the header bar at the top of the screen. If you click it, you will be able to build a banner like this one to leave on their talk page. Give it a try with your teammates! -Pete (talk) 21:19, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello Teammate

This looks like a fabulous course already. Looking forward to working with you. Glen --ggatin (talk) 07:17, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

A pie for you!

Hello! I had to try this out too! Here is a pie for your efforts in contacting our (unnamed) team. Perhaps we could be the WikiPIEdians? Bron (talk) 11:19, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

I'll bring the coffee

Hello, fellow WikiPie. Thanks to your post to the class Talk page about class vs. WP usernames, I was able to resolve my problem, too. And for that, I bring you coffee! Litjade 21:26, 18 May 2013 (UTC)

Stormwatch: Team Achilles

Hi there. I only last night saw your post on my talk page about that comic book article, because you had added it to a previous section. When posting on someone's talk page, be sure to use the "new section" button and give a title to your comments to avoid that issue. Not sure if you've figured these parts out also, but you can link to articles by adding double square brackets around them, like so: [[Stormwatch: Team Achilles]] gives you Stormwatch: Team Achilles. If you want to do a link to a regular website, you only need single brackets, and you can add a another name for the link: [http://www.google.com Google] gives you Google. I wasn't sure if you wanted me to review your edits or needed some other information, but feel free to contact me again either here or on my talk page. Cheers. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 12:49, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. I am muddling through, learning more about how to communicate in Wikipedia every day. Taking Pete Forsyth's Writing Wikipedia Articles class through Wikipedia, Education Program:Peer to Peer University, to get up to speed on editing and creating in the Wiki environment because my job includes keeping our WikiEducator page updated. Love the copy editing guides; keep it/them open while doing work on the backlog. The class's final project is to bring a Stub to the Start class, or bring any article up one level per the guidelines. I'm glad I've gotten involved with Wikipedia.Lorrie (talk) 13:49, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi Lorrie, I see the edits you made -- looks good! -Pete (talk) 23:19, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi Lorrie, Not sure I could get fired up about orchids although they look lovely and I think it is great to add to the body of knowledge about rare and remote specimens. I was going to work on a page about a local author but now I might try to get something going around the idea of the social epistemology of Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gating (talk • contribs) 22:00, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Applying for the badge

Lorrie, you asked about how to apply for the badge -- it's covered on the week 6 class page. Does that answer your question? Let me know if you get stuck! -Pete (talk) 00:14, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations on a job well done!
