Editing[edit]

Hey! I spent a long time editing your work mostly because something unexpected, unexplainable happened and suddenly I saw each of the sections twice. I think there were at least two people editing your article at the same time. Fortunately, I managed to fix it (at least I think I did).

Here are some editing comments I have:

  • I adjusted wording here and there - mostly minor things. I also removed “you” from the text and substituted it with “one” because it sounds more appropriate for the Wikipedia (in my opinion).
  • I used bullet points to present components of nature connectedness in your first paragraph, so it is easier to read and so it is easier to find information one wants.
  • I added “Elizabeth Nisbet’s webpage” to the link you provided because usually there is some text people can click to go to a specific webpage (instead of just [1]). I did similar thing to many of other links. I also fixed some broken links.

Please feel free to change anything back if you do not like my changes.

Few suggestions:

  • I am not sure such detailed descriptions of measures are needed. Shouldn’t you include only overall description of each scale (so people can find which scale is better to use for what they want to study) and leave out examples of items and statistical details? (The amount of measurement information is overwhelming.)
  • You should probably rename “Interesting websides” as “See also:” or “External links:” - names commonly used within Wikipedia. Within that list you should provide a link’s name instead of a webpage address, e.g. Government Environmental Page and link imbedded within that name (there is a “link” button which lets you do it really easily).
  • Within your references, journal names and their volume numbers should be italicized according to the APA style. (I changed it in some of your references.)
  • This is really minor but shouldn't you put the picture a bit higher in your text, instead of it being next to the references list?

Sorry for being so critical... :_( (Kasob (Kasob (talk) 04:51, 21 March 2012 (UTC))[reply]


Impact of recent student edits[edit]

This article has recently been edited by students as part of their course work for a university course. As part of the quality metrics for the education program, we would like to determine what level of burden is placed on Wikipedia's editors by student coursework.

If you are an editor of this article who spent time correcting edits to it made by the students, please tell us how much time you spent on cleaning up the article. Please note that we are asking you to estimate only the negative effects of the students' work. If the students added good material but you spent time formatting it or making it conform to the manual of style, or copyediting it, then the material added was still a net benefit, and the work you did improved it further. If on the other hand the students added material that had to be removed, or removed good material which you had to replace, please let us know how much time you had to spend making those corrections. This includes time you may have spent posting to the students' talk pages, or to Wikipedia noticeboards, or working with them on IRC, or any other time you spent which was required to fix problems created by the students' edits. Any work you did as a Wikipedia Ambassador for that student's class should not be counted.

Please rate the amount of time spent as follows:

  • 0 -No unproductive work to clean up
  • 1 - A few minutes of work needed
  • 2 - Between a few minutes and half an hour of work needed
  • 3 - Half an hour to an hour of work needed
  • 4 - More than an hour of work needed

Please also add any comments you feel may be helpful. We welcome ratings from multiple editors on the same article. Add your input here. Thanks! -- LiAnna Davis (WMF) (talk) 19:45, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
