It's been a while I created a Wikipedia article so I went for the GMO controversy. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetically_modified_organism_controversy_(Gh…> Hopefully it will be allowed to stand alone and not merged with any other international GMO discussion. Nonetheless, I am inviting one of you to review it. Here is how<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reviewing> . I am also holding a hangout on how the whole process went down for new editors. Email me if interested. Regards, Sandister Tei ----- Cardiff University JOMEC -- International Journalism www.sandistertei.com | +447448223686

Employed editing? Clarify. Because a company can employ someone to edit.

by Sandister Tei 01 Feb '14

01 Feb '14

So someone got into trouble for paid editing<http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/01/wikimedia-foundation-employee-ou…>. The Wikipedia article on paid editing doesn't say<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Paid_editing_(essay)>it's always wrong. Who is right?

Pages that need help
by Sandister Tei 31 Jan '14

31 Jan '14

A more specific tool that you can use for following pages that have been newly created can be found here<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:NewPagesFeed> . You can set filters to help you focus on pages you'd want to see in your feed. You can use that same function to follow me as a user: SandisterTei for example and see which new pages I create and then you can review them. The whole point is, you won't get bored with lack of articles to edit. Throw any questions in and I believe anyone around who knows something about it will answer you.

Hello, Follow this link <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges>to a page known as "Recent Changes" if you don't know about it already. It gives information of all the recent edits (relevant to you as an editor) on Wikipedia. Aside SuggestBot this also helps you to find pages to edit/watch over pages etc. There are more of these tools around. Just be curious about things you see on Wikipedia and you will find all sorts.
