All the participants were new to editing, with one user having some previous web editing experience. The day started with exploring the expectations of the participants - they were not sure, some wanted to look at Parkinson's page on Wikipedia, or Parkinson's UK. The basic issues of editing were covered, including references and crating a new page. Then participants were working in their sandboxes. Conflict of interest was discussed too. It was felt that they went away being confident to do edit. Follow up message to be sent 1-2 weeks after the event. | |||
The venue was sufficient for the event although there were minor problems: computers kept logging out, and there was not much room for the projector (so the image was quite small). All computers had wired internet connection, but wireless, although present, was unusable. |
