Week 1 Feedback

• You completed the majority of your assignment on time, but we note that you did make some changes after the deadline.
• You completed all of the required content and skills except for the following list. You have the opportunity to make up the points you have lost on this assignment by completing the changes requested by the Week 3 journal deadline.
  • Please include a snail mail address on your User Page. You do not have to use your residence address, if it is off-campus. Using the “1 LMU Drive…” general campus address will be sufficient.
  • Please make an explicit statement about your career interests and goals.
  • As you noted in the summary field for your commit, we did not want you to do the entire assignment in one go. Generally it is a good idea to map out the outline of a page with the headers, then click on the “edit” button next to the header to work on a section individually. Somewhere in the range of 10-20 saves would have been good for this size page.
  • Please create a new wiki page (your Week 2 or Week 3 individual journal page will now fulfill this requirement).
  • Please be careful to use the correct syntax for an internal wiki link versus an external one. Most of your internal links are formatted like external ones. While they do function as links, we would like you to please go back and correct the syntax so that you have practice in learning the MediaWiki syntax.
  • Please organize your page using three levels of headers, ==, ===, and ====; you only had one level, ==, on your page.
  • Your numbered list was added after the deadline. One of the idiosyncrasies of using a numbered list in MediaWiki is that you cannot skip lines in between each line that begins with a “#” because it will restart the numbering from “1” again. You interspersed lines beginning with a “:”, so the numbering was restarted. A “:” causes an indent. When using numbered or bulleted lists, you don’t need to do manual indenting. You can also make sub-lists by using “**”, “#*”, or “#*”, or “##”. Just make sure that you don’t skip lines in between.
  • Your “comment out” had incorrect syntax, so it appeared on the page. You need to use <!-- to open a comment, just like in HTML.
  • The animated gif that you chose to upload to your page is fun, but is very distracting for someone to look at who wants to actually read your page. Would you please replace it with a static image?
  • You uploaded a file and linked to it on your page, but did not use the correct syntax so that a visitor to you page can click the link to download the file. Instead of using an external link format, please use [[Media:filename | visible label]].
  • The category “Journal Entry” is missing from your page, please include it on your template.
  • You acknowledged the sources you used in your Acknowledgments section, but you also need to include the statement “While I worked with the people noted above, this individual journal entry was completed by me and not copied from another source.” and include your wiki signature. This will be required every week.
  • For the shared journal assignment, you forgot to sign your entry with your wiki signature. This will be a requirement each week as well.
• I answered your question on my User talk page.
