Feedback on Week 1 Assignment
I am posting the feedback on your Week 1 assignment here.
- Thank you for submitting your assignment on time.
- While all of the content requested in the assignment was present, your page was missing many of the wiki skills. All of the items listed in the assignment were completed except for the following items noted below. You have the opportunity to make up the points you lost on your assignment by making the requested changes by the Week 3 assignment deadline.
- You should obscure your e-mail so that it is less easily picked up by bots.
- Your snail mail address would look better if it wasn't a bulleted list.
- What are your career interests and goals?
- When talking about your independent research, give the time period, like you would for your work experience.
- You wrote something in the summary field 32 out of 32 times (100%). Keep up the excellent work!
- Your user page was missing a link to a new wiki page.
- Your user page was missing a link to a page within the wiki.
- Your user page was missing a link to an external web page.
- Please "comment out" something in your code.
- While you uploaded and displayed an image on your page, you also need to upload and link to a different type of file.
- The "Journal Entry" category was missing from your page. Please add this to your template page.
- Your template was missing.
- You acknowledged your partner, but the required statement and wiki signature was missing. The References section was missing; you should have at least cited the Week 1 assignment page.
- I like how you have made the connection between DNA and a computer code--hopefully the Week 2 readings reinforce this!

Feedback on Week 5 Database Page
I am posting feedback on your Week 5 Database page here.
- Thank you for submitting your assignment on time.
- You completed all of the requested items except for the following:
- I see that you have not added all of the requested information to you template, nor did you invoke your template on this week's journal page. The table of assignments that you have coded on your User page, actually needs to be on your template page, along with a link to your User page. Then you need to invoke your template on your User page and all journal pages by using the following code <nowki>
Week 15</nowiki>. Be sure to make this fix and invoke your template on all of your journal pages going forward.
- The syntax you used for external links is incorrect. Remember, links that are internal to the wiki use double square brackets, like "[[" and "]]", but links that are external to the wiki only use a single set of square brackets like "[" and "]". Also, links internal to the wiki use the " | " to separate the visible label from the page name, while external links use a single space character to do so. Because you have formatted external links like internal ones, extra brackets and | are showing up on your page.
- Also, when creating a link to download a file, please use the syntax [[Media:filename | visible label]] instead of [[File:filename | visible label]]. The latter does not create a direct download link, but takes you to a secondary page.
- IMG/VR might be a primary database if it allows users to directly upload data. It would be a secondary database if it is getting its data from other databases instead of directly from users.
- In terms of ownership of the database, the ultimate "owners" may be the Regents of the University of California because they are the legal owner of all work performed under the umbrella of the UC system, but the Regents themselves would not be directly involved in the daily operations of the database, such as maintaining it or curating it. There may also be funding sources besides the UC system.
- This database would be considered a public database. A private database would have some kind of restricted access and this database is open to anyone with a web browser.
- This database would be considered a "small" database because it has a very specialized content domain and is run by a single lab group.
- Does the database appear to completely cover its content domain?
- Are the download formats standard or nonstandard?
- Your rate of citing for in text citations was good; however you did not actually cite the Nucleic Acids Research article in your references section.
- Hopefully the "Figure of the Day" is showing you different methods of data visualization. We are going to start directly working with datasets as of the Week 7 assignment.

Week 1 Redux Feedback
- This is feedback on the corrections you made to the Week 1 assignment.
- All of the requested corrections were completed by the deadline, except for the following:
- You created the template, but did not invoke it on your user page. Use the syntax of {{Ymesfin}} on your page to invoke the template. The list of assignments that you have at the top of the user page needs to go on your template, as noted in the Week 5 feedback above.
- Your reference to the Week 1 assignment is not formatted correctly in APA format.
- In the period of September 12 to 19, you made 31 edits to the wiki, 29 of which had summary statements. That's great! Don't forget to write a summary when you upload a file to the wiki.

Week 8 Interim Feedback
- I have checked your workbook submitted for the Week 8 interim deadline. It seems that all three of the members of your group had similar issues with the calculations. Corrections will need to be made before you are ready to continue on with the next stage of the protocol.
- Cell Z2 of the "dHAP4_ANOVA" sheet had the value of "0" instead of the formula that computes the average. Please go back and put in the correct formula. This will result in errors in some of the rest of the calculations because the data are missing, but it is not correct to put in a 0 if there is missing data or an error.
- It appears that you computed the Bonferroni correction on incomplete data because you did not undo the filter before doing those calculations. You will need to repeat those on the unfiltered data before you can move on.
- Please don't use parentheses "( )" in filenames. While it is allowed by modern operating systems, it can cause problems for some bioinformatics software.

Week 10 Interim Feedback
- I've looked at your GRNmap input workbook.
- The ARG81 gene also needs to be deleted from the network because it is only connected to itself and not to any of the other genes. It will need to be deleted from all the other sheets as well.
- The sheet names are case sensitive and should all be in lower case.
- The "threshold_b" sheet should not have "sheet" in its name.
- Once you have done this, it should be ready to try in GRNmap. (There might be some other minor edits needed, but we will need to try it in GRNmap to find those out).
