- Hii,
- The article i edited this week is National Stock Exchange of India - Wikipedia. The dif link is National Stock Exchange of India: Difference between revisions - Wikipedia. Here i learnt about the Nifty 50 index. The information i edited adds what NIFTY 50 is. The article uses NIFTY 50 but does not describes what it is, so i did it. I have added a general meaning on NIFTY 50 index.
- The second article i edited is Suzlon - Wikipedia. The dif link is. Suzlon: Difference between revisions - Wikipedia. Here i learnt about the market capitalization of Suzlon. Mt5332 (talk) 05:57, 10 August 2024 (UTC). The information i added is the market capitalization of Suzlon. The whole article talks about the business of Suzlon and it also talks about the financials of Suzlon like sales, profit, debt etc. When all these things are talked about, market capitalization becomes important. So i added the market capitalization of Suzlon.
- @Mt5332 Please review and finish all parts of Assignment #7 and then ping me here. I will then take a look at it and reply. FULBERT (talk) 19:30, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Week 6/ Xuhang1204
[edit]In the first article, I edited the Climate change mitigation page on Wikipedia by adding a sentence to the "Industry" sub-section under "Mitigation by sector." The addition highlights the use of AI-powered optimization tools to increase energy efficiency in manufacturing processes, which can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Here is the diff link. This addition was supported by findings from a recent academic study on AI in industrial applications. Through this process, I learned how AI technology is being integrated into traditional industries to address environmental challenges and promote sustainable practices.
In the second article, I edited the ChatGPT in education page on Wikipedia by incorporating a concise sentence in the "Effectiveness and applications" section. The sentence underscores the impact of AI tools like GitHub Copilot in enhancing programming education and increasing productivity among developers and students. Here is the diff link. This edit was informed by a recent academic publication. From this editing process, I learned about the growing influence of AI in educational settings, particularly in technical fields, and the importance of balancing innovation with ethical considerations. Xuhang1204 (talk) 09:59, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Xuhang1204 Your first edit was reverted, and the editor made what I think is a good suggestion of where to put your edit. Please try that and it it works, assign yourself that other article and make the change. Ping me here and I will review. FULBERT (talk) 19:48, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for your feedback. I followed the suggestion and made the change on the Climate Risk Management Wikipedia article. Specifically, I added a sentence in the "Definition" section to highlight how AI tools are enabling more precise forecasts and resource allocation in sectors like agriculture, allowing stakeholders to capitalize on favorable climate conditions while minimizing risks. Please take a look, and I’m open to any further suggestions. Xuhang1204 (talk) 04:01, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Week 7/ Xuhang1204
[edit]In the first article, I edited the Road traffic safety Wikipedia page by adding a concise sentence to the "Vehicle Safety" section. The sentence highlights the potential of extended reality (XR) technology to improve driver training and road safety awareness, which could lead to reduced accidents and fatalities. Here is the diff link. This addition was supported by findings from a recent academic study on immersive technologies. Through this process, I learned about the innovative applications of XR in road safety, emphasizing its growing role in enhancing training and awareness programs.
In the second article, I edited the Construction Wikipedia page by incorporating a sentence in the "Construction processes" section. The sentence emphasized the integration of extended reality (XR) technologies to facilitate better collaboration and efficiency during construction projects. Here is the diff link. This edit was informed by insights from a systematic review of immersive technologies in construction. From this editing process, I learned how emerging technologies like XR are transforming traditional construction processes, enabling more effective project management and communication among teams.
My experience with this Wikipedia assignment was both challenging and rewarding. It allowed me to dive deep into topics and apply academic research to enhance public knowledge. I learned about the importance of maintaining neutrality, accuracy, and adhering to Wikipedia's guidelines. While I found the process fulfilling, I'm unsure if I'll continue editing regularly due to the time commitment, but I now feel more confident in my ability to contribute meaningfully in the future. Xuhang1204 (talk) 12:15, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Xuhang1204 Both your edits were reverted, though I disagree with the reasons provided so will accept what you tried to do. Thanks for the overall feedback on this. I hope you find Wikipedia editing useful and continue with it, and you are right to suggest that it is not easy!

FULBERT (talk) 19:51, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
week 6/ yz10411
[edit]- US Open (tennis) I added citations [3] on The change of the competition system also learned the impact of this change on the athletes. At the same time, because it was the Olympic Games recently, my family also likes playing tennis, and I also learned more about the history of tennis, especially the development of the US Open.
2. Rolex I added citations [4] on Changes in the structure of the watch. Rolex has always been a very famous brand, know its appearance but not know its history and design, so this is a good opportunity for me to learn

week 7 / yz10411
[edit]reflection: I will continue doing this work in the future, since experience overall It was very novel, the first time I tried it and the first time I knew that it was possible to modify the content in Wikipedia, and at the same time see people from different places contributing to the knowledge community, allowing others to get more critical and detailed information when they search for the content, and I found it very interesting because I could learn a lot myself
- Midtown Manhattan : diff- [5] I revised the relevant information about midtown Manhattan real estate, and also learned about the development history and changes of Manhattan real estate, as well as the value of different buildings.
- 100 metre freestyle : diff- [6] Since I was watching the Olympic Games recently, I was particularly concerned about the breakthrough of the Chinese swimming team in the men's 100m freestyle, so I revised this to include our athletes breaking a new world record

Week 6 / zq2197
[edit]The first article I edited is chatbot, this is the diff link. The journal article by Dawn stover suggests that as humans increasingly rely on AI for various tasks and social interactions, there's a risk of diminishing our own mental faculties, creativity, and social skills, potentially leading to what some experts describe as a form of "insanity" where humans become mutually unintelligible to each other. However, there are still some limitations of the chatbot, so I added one limitation for this article.
The second article I edited is Artificial Intelligence, this is the diff link. I added the privacy risk caused by using AI from the journal article which discusses the dark side of AI in services, with a significant focus on how AI implementation leads to a loss of consumer privacy through increased data collection, surveillance, and tracking of online and offline behaviours.
From doing these edits, I learned about the significant risk to personal privacy posed by AI systems, and while acknowledging the potential benefits of AI, it's also important to not rely too much on AI. Zq2197 (talk) 00:58, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Zq2197 Nice edits. Current with Week 6. FULBERT (talk) 12:27, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
Week6/Swagsberyls
[edit]This week, I contributed to the X Corp diff and Cybertruck diff articles. For X Corp., I added details about a lawsuit filed by former Twitter Chairman Omid Kordestani, claiming over $20 million in unpaid shares, under the “Controversies” section. For the Tesla Cybertruck article, I updated the “Production and Availability” section with the latest changes in pricing and model availability. Through this process, I learned how to integrate current news into Wikipedia while maintaining neutrality and proper citation for credibility. Swagsberyls (talk) 01:54, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Week 7/ Garnix L
[edit]In the first article, I edited the Real estate investment trust on Wikipedia by adding sentences to the original paragraph, expanding the definition of REITs by adding information about their role as a bridge between real estate and finance, and introduced the distinction between commercial and residential REITs. The link is here diff. Through this process, I learned the importance of providing more specific categorizations within broad financial instruments like REITs. It also offered a more nuanced understanding of complex financial structures.
In the second article, I edited the Commercial bank on Wikipedia by adding information contrasting central banks with commercial banks, highlighting the "bank analogy" misconception and key differences in their functions and operational constraints. The link is here diff. From this editing process, I enhanced my understanding of the crucial distinctions between commercial and central banks, particularly in terms of their primary objectives and financial vulnerabilities. It also underscored the importance of addressing common misconceptions in economic policy discussions to promote more accurate public understanding.
My experience with the Wikipedia extra credit assignment was both enlightening and rewarding. Editing 10 articles and adding 20 citations along with supplementary information provided me with a unique perspective on the collaborative nature of knowledge sharing. I found the process to be engaging, as it required careful research, critical thinking, and clear communication to ensure the added information was accurate, relevant, and properly sourced.
Through this process, I gained a deeper understanding of the topics I edited, as the process of finding and integrating new information forced me to engage with the subject matter more thoroughly. Moreover, it also improved my skills in concise and objective writing, which are crucial for encyclopedia-style content. In the future, I intend to continue editing on Wikipedia because I found the experience to be intellectually stimulating and socially beneficial. Moreover, the process of editing has improved my research and writing skills, which I believe will be valuable in various aspects of my academic and professional life.Garnix L (talk) 05:44, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Garnix L Nice edits on these two final articles, and thanks for the overall feedback on this. I hope you find Wikipedia editing useful and continue with it.

Google LLC (2023).”[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=United_States_v._Google_LLC_(2023)&diff=prev&oldid=1240192333 diff] For the ISS, I added a new section under “Operations” detailing recent challenges with Boeing’s Starliner and NASA’s potential reliance on SpaceX. In the Google case, I integrated updates on the DOJ’s 2024 antitrust ruling, considering remedies like breaking up Google’s business units. This assignment taught me the importance of maintaining neutrality and the value of contributing to a global knowledge base. I found the experience enriching and plan to continue editing on Wikipedia. ~~~~ Swagsberyls (talk) 01:25, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Week 7 / zq2197
[edit]The first article I edited is the Fourth Industrial Revolution, here is the diff link. I added some economic challenges caused by this industrial revolution.
The second article I edited is the Robot, here is the diff link. I added one more type of industrial robots, robots in food and drinking industry.
From editing these two articles, I learned how the 4IR is reshaping the workforce through the integration of digital, physical, and biological technologies, leading to both job displacement and the creation of new roles. Moreover, it helps me understand the complex interplay between technology, skill requirements, and workforce dynamics in the context of the 4IR and the introduction of robots in lower-skilled jobs.

- @Zq2197 Please assign yourself these articles in the Wiki Edu Dashboard and then please finish all the requirements of Assignment #7 and ping me here. I will then take a look at them and reply. FULBERT (talk) 17:02, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for replying! Here's the remaining part of the assignment.
- My extra credit for Wikipedia was interesting and educational. It was wonderful but challenging to help a platform millions of people utilize for information. Investigating, writing, and following Wikipedia's values helped me to see the need of accuracy and verifiability in public information. I learned a great deal about how Wikipedia operates, particularly the collaborative nature of content creation and the need for reliable sources to support every claim. This experience also enhanced my critical thinking and editing abilities, as I was required to critically evaluate information and present it in a neutral, concise manner. I'm going to keep updating Wikipedia, but with a smaller concentration. Making sure that information is available to others and adding to the body of knowledge are concepts that inspire motivation. However, I am aware of the amount of effort required to make meaningful contributions and the responsibility that comes with changing information on such a popular site.
