inappropriate speedy deletion request
The page Ethical Management of the English Language Wikipedia/Case Studies/Controversy or disruption was created by Dzonatas, yet you have requested deletion here saying As the intial author of this page I have determined that there is no substantial continuing value in retaining it. See the project talk page for further discussion So, the natural conclusion is that you are Dzonatas, however you must make that very plain, otherwise your speedy deletion request is invalid and inappropriate. If you wish to remain anonymous, please remove your speedy deletion tag, or rewrite it to use a different reason for deletion if there is another speedy deletion criteria which is appropriate. Then, if Dzonatas wants to delete it, that account must tag it for deletion; people will draw conclusions from that as they see fit. John Vandenberg (chat) 08:15, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

 * John - all of the content placed at that page was authored by me. Dzontas seperated it out from sections into subpages. You'll want to get a little bit up to speed before deciciding on issues - people might think you are jumping to promote Taxwoman to checkuser - wait, I mean jumping to conclusions without getting all the facts on the ground. Salmon of Doubt 12:52, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Taking shots at valuable members of Wiki projects is definitely not a way to build trust. You have already demonstrated that you are unwilling to discuss things and instead claim bias. You have already demonstrated that you wish to cause harm via use of automated systems. Now you are resorting to attacking people without just cause. Please stop. Ottava Rima 15:28, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

 * You say it's without cause. I say it's a revealing pattern of behavior. JV trusts users who do not merit trust, jumps to the wrong conclusion, and has done so before. I have no desire to "cause harm." Salmon of Doubt 15:40, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I jumped to the wrong conclusion. But come on, .. you tagged it in a manner than a component uninvolved person couldnt approve a speedy delete. You could have been a little more clear in the tagging. Rather than simply point out my error and fill in the blanks, you attack me unnecessarily, and you made ill-informed suppositions of your own, guessing why I have done some things rather than comprehend what I have said on those matters. We are off to a good start, I see. I did not assume you intended harm. I know a little about Dzonatas, and thought it odd that he would tag it like that via a sock, so I had already kind of assumed that you were not him. I dont know what level of competence you have here or on other wikis, so I was trying to help. If you re-read my original message above, you will see my intent was to explain how I thought you could keep doing whatever it is that you are trying to achieve here. I am yet to learn what that is - I look forward to doing so.

Could you please provide a diff or two to illustrate where the content came from, demonstrating that you wrote it all?

Since it is causing you concern, I will explain a little. I never ever assumed that Poetlister & co where anything else other than one person. You will see my comments on ANI very clearly showed that. I have been painfully aware of the reality of the PL situation, roughly about as soon as aspects of it were known to various people, which means I was extremely well informed in this. Overarching my decisions is always an intent to demonstrate good faith where the risk is low. sysop on Wikisource is no big deal. Being allowed to resume editing on WP due to the enourmous quality contributions on Wikisource & Wikiquote is also reasonable application of "assume good faith", and again, was not a big deal. In both cases, I carefully watched all edits by those accounts on Wikisource and Wikipedia. i.e. Trust, but Verify. Some of my watching paid off, in the end result. I do not regret any of my decisions in this case. Notice that my name is not on either Wikiquote requests for more important tools, because I wasnt comfortable with them, based on my limited knowledge and suspicions at that time. I didnt have a good enough reason to object at that time, so I stayed out of the matters of another Wiki. If you have a more specific query about my actions which you think are questionable, feel free to ask direct questions and I will answer them as directly as I can.

RE your request for notifications
I find it odd that I ask User:KillerChihuahua to provide a dif and then I get a reply from "Salmon of Doubt".

I was asking about this block: 19:22, 11 September 2007 KillerChihuahua (Talk | contribs) blocked "Moulton (Talk | contribs)" (account creation blocked) with an expiry time of indefinite  (Disruptive POV OR warrior with no interest in writing an encyclopedia. See Rfc.)

KillerChihuahua blocked with the reason given as "Disruptive POV OR warrior with no interest in writing an encyclopedia. See Rfc." Then, 10 minutes later, MastCell made this edit which says "indefinitely blocked from editing in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for repeated abuse of editing privileges." The text "abuse of editing privileges" linked to Wikipedia:Vandalism. So, there was no notification given on Moulton's user page of the reason for an indefinite block. Why did MastCell get involved? Why did MastCell post the wrong reason for the block? Why did KillerChihuahua never make sure that the reason for the block was posted to Moulton's user talk page? --JWSchmidt 21:27, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I watch your edits. It would be in poor taste for me to discuss this with you on Wikipedia without coming clean about my Wikipedia account, so I dropped you a message here because I'm certain you will be ignored there. I can't speak to why MastCell left a message, since I'm not admitting (or denying) being MastCell. I can't speak to why KillerChihuahua didn't leave a message, since I'm not admitting (or denying) being KillerChihuahua. I can, however, state that attempting to argue that the block on Moulton was inpropper because someone forgot to, or left a bad talk page message is as likley to work by pissing in the wind and telling yourself it's raining. Salmon of Doubt 21:30, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Welcome
Hi Salmon of Doubt, thanks for joining the Learning from conflict and incivility project and your comments in your narrative. I also appreciate the generally more reflective tone in your recent participation. I'm looking forward to working with you on this issue - I'll post some questions to your narrative's talk page.

 Hi! My name is WikiversityJack. I am a pumpkin and a Wikiversity mascot. My aunt told me that fun + learning = Wikiversity. Let me know if I can help you out.

Hi and welcome to your daily "how to be a sysop" tutorial
Hi Salmon. Thank you for joining the "how to be a sysop" programme. As part of your welcome package you now get to be chased around by well-meaning tutors like me. As I don't know anything about you or your previous wiki experience, please bear with me if I underestimate your abilities! Couple of points: (1) cascading protection - all the pages you just protected were already protected by cascading protection, so technically you didn't need to do this; are you familiar with cascading? (2) Have you added your signature under "students" on the "how to be a sysop" page? --McCormack 12:05, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Actually, quite a few of the pages I protected were not cascaded - for example, Educational Media Awareness Campaign/Art/POTD 11, and a few others. My inital thought was to cascade the main page, but there was a cryptic note in the protection log that it was intentionally uncascaded due to a comment in Dec 07, which I couldn't find. Adding my sig now Salmon of Doubt 12:08, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I explained the reason again on the talk page for the news page. I'm very good at being cryptic. The EMAC pages should find themselves as protected by cascading on the days they display, but not on the days they don't. But some of my cascading is a little dodgy (see recent changes). --McCormack 12:11, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Ahh. I can fix that up. I get the system now. Salmon of Doubt 12:13, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Hye just a note if you're going to be going through images... I saw the other day some Pdf files that were obvious copyvios, but don't have time to trace them down this morning. They should be deleted, of course, but maybe tell the uploader that they'll have to do that sort of thing via email/etc. (Actually, they should be making a packet and paying the royalties, but I have no idea how one sets that up). --SB_Johnny talk 13:57, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Participants
You're clearly a top contributor during September (as you were in August). I wonder if you might reconsider being listed on this page? -- Jtneill - Talk - c 14:05, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Second that. --McCormack 14:57, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Wikiversity:Support staff
Per this list it states that you now have temporary Custodianship - please update the Support staff section under Support Staff directory, and place your username on the list as a Probationary Custodian this will then alert other users that you have Custodian tools, if you view this revison it'll show my former Terra username as a Probationary Custodian, when I used to be known by that name - this is what it'll look like, but yours will be different. DarkMage 18:53, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Bots
You had mentioned somewhere that you could help design some bots, and I was wondering if you could have a look at some things on the bloom clock that could use automated assistance. A bot that could convert raw DPL results into keys would be one great thing to have, but also a cross-wiki bot that can translate templates from cs to en and vice versa. --SB_Johnny talk 12:28, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Would be nice to also include knowledge here: Programming bots on Wikimedia projects, Erkan Yilmaz uses the Chat (try) 12:32, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I'm a bit too stupid right now. Perhaps it's the AM - bloom clock? DPL? I can work on template translation, that shouldn't be too hard. Salmon of Doubt 14:02, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

 * LoL, sorry :-). I'd like an automated way of taking the list from a page like this one, and add the transclusion stuff to make a page like this one. I've been doing it copy-paste for 2 years now, and it's tiresome. --SB_Johnny talk 14:23, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Moulton's three day trial
I have posted this on multiple pages - Please see this. I would like to try and have Moulton work on this task and have him refrain from the escalating actions. I would ask that you monitor but respect Moulton's work at this time, and take any complaints or concerns directly to me. There will be a peer review process at the end, and I believe that this process will be most effective after he is complete and in the manner that I put forth. I am requesting that Moulton only edit on this project during this time, and I would like if you could show him the courtesy in not furthering any dispute with him until after the process is over, and that we are all able to discuss this project. If that is too much to ask for, please contact me, and I will see how I can accommodate your needs. Thank you, and please pass the word to any that I may have forgotten and this may pertain to. Ottava Rima 18:00, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

As per Jimbo, my project has been canceled. Please disregard the above. Ottava Rima 19:25, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Suspend for a while?
Hiya Salmon. If you're going to be away for a while, I'd rather hold your janitor's keys here in the office. You can have the mop (and pooper-scooper) back when you return, of course :-). Let me know if you're going to be gone for more than a week or so.

Sorry to hear about your kitty... I've lost my share of those over the years. --SB_Johnny talk 20:07, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

 * That will be fine. I'll be back, eventually. Salmon of Doubt 04:11, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Heya kiddo
You're supposed to block when you do that. Are you ready to be a probationary custodian again now? --SB_Johnny talk 19:03, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Not right now, thanks. Salmon of Doubt 13:39, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi
I noticed the recent revert war. I haven't had time to look at the content, but I just noticed a bunch of different IP addresses and you. The IP addresses have been blocked for their part, and the page temporarily locked down until we sort that. I didn't want to block you, because, as a probationary sysop, I can only assume that you were doing what was in your power to clean up. I would ask that you don't revert so much, but instead drop a message on the custodian action page. Otherwise, it is just a little hard to keep up :). That page did get flooded rather fast, and my head is still spinning. Drop by chat if you would like to discuss this more thoroughly. (note - this isn't a warning, nor should it be construed as one, its more of a friendly note). Ottava Rima (talk) 15:51, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Ottava, the academically correct version of the scholarly discussion is now available on your talk page. —Montana Mouse 15:56, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I wanted to note that I temporarily protected your user talk page against IP addresses. I did not look at the content, but it seemed that from the reverts that this could be related. I hope the protection gives you enough time to sort things out. I'll be around the IRC if you would like to chat. Ottava Rima (talk) 17:57, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

"Done"?
Hi Salmon, I was wondering what you meant when you said you're "done here" - do you mean at Community Review, or in the discussion there around Geoff's participation, or in Wikiversity overall? I'm sorry if I provoked you - I think you've a lot to contribute - I just wanted you not to escalate the discussion into any further drama. Cormaggio talk 13:24, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Geoff. Probably community review as well, untill it actually has some teeth. Salmon of Doubt 13:52, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks for clarifying that. I think the community review is bringing up useful and interesting perspectives - it'll still take time before we can craft all this into policies etc that "have teeth". Hang in there in the meantime. :-) Cormaggio talk 14:10, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

User talk:Moulton
Moulton's talk page was unprotected for the sole purpose of allowing him to respond to the unblock request at Community Review. Please allow Moulton to comment on those matters without distraction, and within the guidelines posted at the top of the page. The more questions you ask him, the more justification he has for straying off topic. --mikeu talk 14:58, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

 * No. If he strays off topic, he should be rebanned. I will not stray off topic. He alledges that he did not reveal private information. This is a lie. I will refute his statement. Salmon of Doubt 15:00, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

 * His position that he did not reveal private information is no different the statement you made about your position. I hope you realize this. Dzonatas 17:33, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Except for the fact he's lying, yes, I realize this. Salmon of Doubt 17:44, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Abd's nomination for full custodianship
Discussion re-opened on this nomination, November 16. You commented in the original discussion, but have not commented in the current one, which might close on November 21. The current discussion is at Candidates for Custodianship/Abd (full custodian). --Abd 20:29, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

Wikimedia Ethics/Case Studies/Case 3/Privileged information and competing priorities

Case 3 — 'Privileged' information and competing priorities - w:User:Privatemusings

 * this sections is authored by User:Privatemusings

 * Ideas for the structure of this section are most welcome - eg. discussion sections, questions, more cowbell etc.

As the author, and protagonist in this situation, it's possible that unintended biases are unavoidable. As such, I would appreciate vigorous editing of the below to present everything as neutrally as possible. I'd be happy to remove this 'disclaimer' should a strong consensus to do so evolve. Equally, do let me know if you feel this is inappropriate or wrong for any reason. Here's some background too.

This case study essentially examines competing priorities in the management of Wikipedia - the respect and privacy due to individual editors, and the needs of the project as a whole. In some circumstances, some may feel that these priorities come into tension with each other, and this section is intended to promote understanding and further debate, as to how the english wikipedia has handled such situations, and what 'best practice' may look like. These may not be mutually exclusive, of course! It's up to you to form your own view.

I have written the two accounts below to attempt to distill alternate perspectives. Feel free to ask questions, or provide feedback formally below, or less formally on the talk page.

Privatemusings' Alternate accounts
w:User:Privatemusings was, in late 2007, a self declared 'sockpuppet' account at Wikipedia, meaning that the human behind the account also edited Wikipedia using other usernames. Editing by this account in a contentious area of policy debate was considered disruptive, and some administrators requested information concerning the identity of alternate accounts. This was provided via email.

The information contained in this email was shared amongst various senior wiki administrators, apparently including arbitrators and Jimbo. Privatemusings asserted, and continues to assert, that this was unethical behaviour. When this matter was before the English Wikipedia's Arbitration committee, no comment was made.

 * Question: Was it ethical, in these circumstances, to share private emails without the author's consent?

Same story, another perspective
w:User:Privatemusings was, in late 2007 an abusive sockpuppeteer, meaning he broke site policies by creating 8 separate identities. This behaviour can cause severe disruption, and in particular, Sockpuppet accounts are not to be used in discussions internal to the project, such as policy debates. This was confirmed by the Arbitration Committee, the body empowered by the foundation to consider such matters(reference), which also handed down a 3 month ban and an indefinite restriction on Privatemusings working on biographies, where his editing was also extremely problematic.

As problems began to develop, administrators active in the area asked Privatemusings to identify his alternative accounts, and despite him doing so, he continued to cause disruption, as evidenced by several heated discussions on the administrators noticeboards.

The central task of a wiki administrator is to maintain the smooth running of the site, in order to build the best encyclopedia possible, a task which may involving blocking or banning disruptive users. An administrator who had received note of Privatemusings' alternative accounts felt that he was using them in a way clearly contrary to policy, and clearly not in the best interested of the project. It was important to clearly assess the needs of the project at this point, which included asking for advice from several arbcom members, and the co-founder of Wikipedia. Every recipient of this information felt that this was disruptive behaviour, clearly disallowed under policy, Again this was quickly confirmed by the arbcom in the case which followed shortly thereafter.

 * Question: Was it ethical, in these circumstances, to share information concerning the multiple accounts used, in order to minimise disruption, and maintain policy compliance?

Questions and answers
most welcome here
 * I sort of feel like this is unresolved to a degree, but it's all from quite a while ago... does it matter any more? Privatemusings 02:28, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Do you suffer some sort of multiple personality disorder? 8 sock-puppet accounts say something about it... Davichito 03:19, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Criticism and feedback
Please use the talk page for general commentary, or post a concise response on your own terms below;
 * Answer to the first question: I think it does not matter at all. Everyone on wikis know what sock-puppetry is. You are not bannable for that. It is pretty common on wikis. And plus, you understood how you were wrong, so there is no point in keeping the heat on it, IMHO. But, as always, I may be wrong... maybe this page has a purpose I do not see. --Davichito 03:32, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

AP United States History

Advanced Placement examinations (AP exams) are exams offered in United States by the College Board and are taken each May by students. The tests are the culmination of year-long Advanced Placement (AP) courses. AP exams (with few exceptions) have a multiple-choice section and a free-response section.

The AP United States History exam studies the cultural, economic, political, and social developments that have shaped the United States from c. 1491 to the present, including analyzing texts, visual sources, and other historical evidence and writing essays expressing historical arguments.

Outline

 * /1491-1607/
 * /1607-1754/
 * /1754–1800/
 * /1800-1848/
 * /1844-1877/
 * /1865-1898/
 * /1890-1945/
 * /1945-1980/
 * /1980-Present/

Wikimedia Ethics/List of questions/JWSchmidt answers

My main focus: I'm trying to educate myself about the some problems on biographical articles.

1. What is the purpose of this learning project?
 * There are multiple participants who each have their own interests and goals (see). I think the original purpose was mainly centered on problems with biased biographical articles.

2. What are the goals of this learning project? 3. What are the aims of this learning project?
 * I don't know what would be different between "goals" and aims". Wikipedia has biased biographical articles. We need to find ways to improve the quality of Wikipedia articles.

10. What does this learning project hope to accomplish?
 * I think the goal is to improve the quality of Wikipedia articles.

4. What assumptions or prior knowledge is assumed about the learners of this learning project?
 * They want to improve the quality of Wikipedia articles.

5. What issues or problems is this learning project trying to address? What concerns sparked this learning project? 6. What is the subject or subjects of this learning project's research?
 * See Ethical Management of the English Language Wikipedia/Case Studies for introductions to some specific examples of "when things when wrong at Wikipedia". They include biased biographies, mis-guided actions taken by Wikipedia administrators, poorly-justified blocks and bans of editors who were trying to improve the encyclopedia, fights over the release of personal information, etc.

7. What initial assumptions are the researchers making?
 * Wikipedia has some institutional defects that create problems, poor articles and administrators who abuse editors who are trying to help the project. Wikipedia has less-than-efficient processes for getting rid of bad administrators and preventing the creation of biased articles. Study and understanding of these problems might lead to correction of the problems.

8. What are the foundations being used for the research? 9. What criteria are being used for the research? See Scholarly ethics.

Wikimedia Ethics/Social contract

This learning resource is for examining the nature and benefits of a social contract, with a specific focus on online collaborative environments such as Wikipedia.

Wikipedia's Social Contract
Wikipedia has a set of general guidelines called the Five Pillars, one of which is Ignore All Rules. Policy supports, and editors are generally required to accept, the maxim "if an action helps the encyclopedia, overall, it is good." It is however possible that the innate level of subjectivity within that statement is a source of confusion and conflict. In this section we will explore arguments for and against the strength and reliability of Wikipedia's 'social contract'.

The English Language Wikipedia does not have an expressed Community Social Contract setting forth the site's Vision/Mission Statement, mutually agreed-upon terms of engagement, or functional conflict resolution protocol. The Five Pillars have been overshadowed by a large number of additional guidelines which have evolved into confusing and conflicting rules over which editors often disagree and engage in escalating antagonistic recriminations.

On the English Wikipedia, breaches of expectations are typically first reviewed in Requests for Comments (example 1, example 2) and subsequently referred to ArbCom (example 1, example 2, example 3, example 4), which can take months to decide a case (if they take it at all). Most cases are not taken up (example). Alternatively, cases are referred to the Administrator's Noticeboard (example), where they are sometimes resolved and more often not.

Social contracts used by other websites
Functional social contracts exist when both the society and the individual have an understanding of prevailing norms that exist with a significant level of synergy. We will examine borderline cases in due course, however first it's worth looking at cases of a clearly functional social contract, and a clearly dysfunctional, or entirely absent social contract;

Two large technical communities that employ the Social Contract Model are the Debian GNU Project, and Google. Debian GNU has its social contract prominently linked at the top of the main page. Google has a social contract with its own employees, as describe in this NY Times story.

For a specific example of a social contract used in the 1990s by a small community (less than 100 participants), see the Blooming Lotus Forum Social Contract.

Nursing Study Guide

This Nursing Study Guide is intended to be just that, a study guide for nursing. The intended content is for students pursuing becoming Registered Nurses (RN). Limiting contributions to that perspective should make it simpler for RN students to apply what they read here. Nursing students pursuing a different credential are encouraged to create a similar resource, and a link to and from this one might enhance the studies of each if that becomes the case.

This is intended to be a study guide, not an all-inclusive text.

Content is grouped so hopefully content will be easily accessible to students whether taking Fundamentals, or Med-Surge, or Pediatrics, or Maternal health.

Talk:Beginners Music Theory

Wikipedia Contributions

 * The whole note is so named because in the most common time signature, one whole note lasts the entire measure. All other note values are named for the fraction of a whole note that they represent.

I tried to add the above information (not in so many words) to the parallel Wikipedia article. I was denounced in no uncertain times as promoting "Original Research" WP:OR and sent packing.

This is the kind of thing that makes experienced and knowledgeable people like me not want to contribute to Wikipedia. I teach music to young children. I'm always looking for simpler, easier ways to explain ideas to them. Young children often have no concept of fractions, but likening the whole and half notes to a "whole measure" or "half measure" seems to work well. Why would Wikipedia censor this idea?

More specifically, how can I convince the Wikipedian who censored this idea to accept it? Not as "true" of course - I have always honored the neutrality principle - but as "an idea" expressed by some authors writing about music theory. Is there a source for this, like The Complete Idiot's Guide to Music Theory By Michael Miller, that would be acceptable at Wikipedia, or am I just wasting everyone's time with something 'petty' like this? --Ed Poor 13:05, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Hello Ed, I am unfamiliar with the topic, but about "More specifically, how can I convince the Wikipedian who censored this idea to accept it?" Did you ask the Wikipedia participant on his/her talk page already that he should point you to the relevant guidelines/policies so you can also read it ? Convincing - I guess by discussing things out (e.g. on talk page or also usage of email). If you see there is no reasoning so far you can ask some other Wikipedians who contribute to that music page (see the version history) for their opinion. Erkan Yilmaz uses the Chat (try) 14:50, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Exclusive Editing
Hello Fellow Wikipedians, I've already put many hours of work into this project. I have a vision for how I want it to progress, so I'm hoping that this can be locked such that only I can edit it. (Naturally, I don't want my work to be messed up.)

Thanks, Donaldwpmiller (discuss • contribs) 19:21, 8 July 2018 (UTC)DonaldWPMiller 3:20 pm Eastern Standard Time on 7/8/2018

 * Please see Be bold. You can add this page to your watch list, and let us know if it is vandalized, but exclusive editing isn't an option. Just as you have built on the contributions of at least 15 other editors, you must expect and assume that others will build on your efforts. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 23:08, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

No. I am developing a course that I began from scratch and which was abandoned by fifteen other people. There wasn't much there, except by someone who got angry at Wikiversity and quit. Donaldwpmiller (discuss • contribs) 23:30, 8 July 2018 (UTC)DonaldWPMiller 7:29 pm 7/8/2018.

The last person who worked on this project did so TEN YEARS AGO! Donaldwpmiller (discuss • contribs) 23:44, 8 July 2018 (UTC)donaldwpmiller 7:44 pm EST 7/8/2018

Moreover, I don't want anyone be "bold" with my work. I don't want someone messing up my work. Donaldwpmiller (discuss • contribs) 23:47, 8 July 2018 (UTC)donaldwpmiller 7:47 pm EST 7/8/2018

@Dave Braunschweig Well, unless you let me know, I can't tell whether or not you were helping me or letting me know how vulnerable my contributions are. I went by one of your projects and saw the excellent idea of having the multiple pages and the flashcards. Donaldwpmiller (discuss • contribs) 00:13, 9 July 2018 (UTC)donaldwpmiller 8:13 EST pm 7/82018

 * The idea of multiple pages comes from Progressive disclosure. As the introduction to this resource already notes, the content needs smaller bites in order to be consumable. It also needed better organization, and likely still does, as there were multiple parts of different approaches intermingled. I've tried to break it down so that it is more manageable and easier to both edit and learn from. It may be that the homework activities can be combined with other lessons, or resequenced. They should certainly be renamed, as Lesson 1 and Lesson 2 aren't meaningful for anyone searching for content. Note that the external links to Google communities and Wordpress aren't consistent with External links. Those resources are designed to draw users away from Wikiversity rather than bring them here and keep the content free and open. Whether or not this is helpful depends on your perspective. If it's helpful, you're in the right place. If not, I recommend just working on Google and Wordpress. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 00:40, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

@Dave Braunschweig I emailed you yesterday with some useful suggestions. You emailed me back stating that you don't really have much contact with the administrators. Now, this. I don't see how this Wikiversity project can be morally justifiable when it has mostly been a waste volunteer's time since its inception in 2007. Having everything well organized is all very well and good -- after the developer (in this case me) comes to grips with how it should be structured. Projects don't just occur fully made, unless someone has the mind of a Mozart.

Even though Wikiversity has been around for over a decade, it is still "under development." https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity:Courses "This article is about the development of Wikiversity. Please help Wikiversity by adding your ideas about what Wikiversity should become, or what it should do." That isn't my fault.

I might also point out that one of the successes Wikiversity has listed is its course in Troll Sock Puppets. Yet even though it is a short page in length it is still incomplete, with all five parts of Part Three and Advanced Trolling in Part 4 being incomplete. https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/A_course_in_troll_sockpuppets

What's the point? Volunteers deserve to be warned in advance that Wikiversity is still under development and that the way in which it is structured, it never will be. (I thought of the idea of a locked project when I saw a discussion about it on an administrative page.)

Well, I haven't entirely wasted my time: I can make my own project, but Wikipedia gets the amount of traffic that justifies a good deal of invested time.

I've seen your page. You seem to be doing pretty well with your projects. So it is possible, for someone who is in a position to complete them, as you are.

Donaldwpmiller (discuss • contribs) 03:01, 9 July 2018 (UTC)DonaldwpMiller 11:01 pm EST 7/8/2018

 * There seems to be some confusion here. You emailed me yesterday about Wikipedia. As I indicated in my response, "I have no administrative connection to Wikipedia. I'm an administrator at Wikiversity." Also above you have mistaken Wikipedia criticism as Wikiversity criticism and then Wikiversity traffic as Wikipedia traffic. Wikipedia and Wikiversity are separate sites and separate communities.
 * Wikiversity will always be under development. Although many users come and go, the vision Wikiversity started with in 2005 has remained consistent. It is a place to create and host free learning resources and learning projects. As long as there is something new to be learned, Wikiversity will be under development. And as long as there is another perspective to be shared, all pages are open to editing. Users are warned at the bottom of each edit page, "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed by others, do not submit it."
 * I'm sorry that your vision of Wikiversity is inconsistent with our reality, but this is a place where users collaborate on content and build on each other's contributions. If that's not what you are looking for or comfortable with, it's best that you find out now so you can invest your time elsewhere. Best of luck to you. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 03:48, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

Nursing Study Guide/Nutritional Issues

Nursing care of Clients with Nutritional Disorders

Nutritional Standards to Promote Health include dietary recommendations, food guide pyramids for adequate nutrition. Nutritional assessment includes diet history, Anthropometric measurements (measurement of height and weight, assessment of body fat [body mass index]).

Obesity
Overweight means increased body weight for height compared to standard. Obesity is one of the most preventable health problems; it means at least 20% above upper limit of normal range for ideal body weight, due to excess adipose tissue. Obesity is adequately described by the amount of body fat. Morbid obesity has severe negative effects on health. Complications of Obesity

Complications related to obesity include diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary artery disease (CAD), Obstructive sleep apnea, depression and other mental health/behavioral health problems, urinary incontinence, cholelithiasis, chronic back pain, early osteoarthritis, delayeded wound healing, and increased susceptibility to infection.

Pathophysiology of Obesity
Pathophysiology of obesity includes excess calories stored as fat, which can result from excess energy intake, deficient energy expenditure, or a combination of both. The appetite is controlled by the central nervous system (CNS) and by emotional factors. Other factors contributing to the pathophysiology of obesity include hormones (thyroid, insulin, leptin). Two types of obesity are upper body (central) obesity with waist-hip ratio greater than 0.8, and lower body (peripheral) obesity.

Risk Factors of Obesity
Risk Factors for obesity include genetic, physiologic, physical activity, psychologic, environmental (fast foods, vending machines), sociocultural (family meals, rewards).

Obesity and Health Promotion
Include health promotion/illness prevention. Teach the potential consequences and complications. Teach the importance of eating a healthy diet, and that foods eaten away from home tend to be higher in fat, cholesterol, and salt, and lower in calcium. Reinforce need for regular moderate activity for at least 30 minutes per day, five or six days a week. Educate regarding diet and activity for children and adolescents, and continuing throughout adulthood.

Collaborative Care of Obesity
Collaborative Care includes diagnostics; BMI (20-2), anthropometry, underwater weighing, thyroid profile, serum glucose, lipid profile, cholesterol, ECG, treatment, and medications. Nonsurgical Management of obesity may include fasting, very low-calorie diets of 400 to 800 calories per day, novelty diets, diet therapy, exercise programs, drug therapy, OTC medications such as Meridia or Xenical, complementary and alternative therapies and treatments, behavioral therapy, food records which may help identify/eliminate cues that precipitate eating.

Surgical Management of Obesity may include liposuction, bariatric surgery, preoperative care, operative procedures, vertical banded gastroplasty, circumgastric banding, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

Postoperative Care of Obesity includes analgesia, skin care, nasogastric tube placement, diet, prevention of postoperative complications. Observe for dumping syndrome signs such as tachycardia, nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal cramping.

Nursing Care of Obesity
Nursing Care includes health promotion. Start early. Nursing diagnosis (ND) and interventions include possibilities such as the following:

Imbalanced nutrition: more than body requirements; identify factors contributing to food excess, establish realistic goals, assess knowledge and provide patient teaching, discuss how patient can implement behavior modification.

Activity intolerance; assess current activity level, after medical clearance plan an individualized program.

Ineffective therapeutic regimen management; discuss ability to incorporate change, help identify behavior modification strategies, plan ways to deal with stress and interruptions in regimen.

Chronic low self-esteem; encourage patient to verbalize feelings, set small goals, refer to counseling if appropriate.

Home care of Obesity
Home care includes lifestyle changes; recruit the whole family, establish realistic goals with non food rewards, identify an exercise buddy, expect failures and learn to deal with them, use community resources.

Malnutrition
Malnutrition may result from inadequate intake of nutrients, or may be caused by inadequate nutrition intake, impaired absorption or increased metabolic need.

Pathophysiology of malnutrition
Pathophysiology of malnutrition includes starvation (inadequate dietary intake; as it continues the body breaks down fats into fatty acids and ketones), acute stress which produces a state of hypermetabolism and catabolism (cells and tissue breakdown; increased energy expenditure and nutrients needs) protein and calorie malnutrition (PCM): both proteins and calories are deficient.

Risk Factors of malnutrition
Risk Factors of malnutrition include age, poverty and homelessness, functional health problems, oral or GI problems affecting food intake, chronic pain or disease, medications or treatment, acute problems (infection, surgery, trauma). Manifestations and Complications of malnutrition Manifestations and Complications of malnutrition include weight loss, wasted appearance, dry and brittle hair, pale mucous membranes.

Collaborative Care of malnutrition
The goal of collaborative Care of malnutrition is torestore ideal body weight, to replace and restore depleted nutrients. Laboratory Assessment of malnutrition includes BMI less than 20, hematology (iron, Hgb, protein studies, albumin below 3 mg/dl, serum cholesterol 160-200, other laboratory tests, total lymphocyte count reduced, serum electrolytes. Collaborative Care of malnutrition

Collaborative Care of malnutrition includes medications, fluid and dietary management, correct imbalances, enteral nutrition, parenteral nutrition.

Enteral Nutrition for malnutrition
There are different types of enteral products for nutrients, methods of administration of total enteral nutrition, and types of tubes (nasoenteric tube, enterostomal tube), types of feedings. Complications of total enteral nutrition include clogged tube, dislodgement, aspiration, fluid excess, increased osmolarity, dehydration, electrolyte imbalances.

Parenteral Nutrition for malnutrition
Parenteral Nutrition for malnutrition includes partial parenteral nutrition and total parenteral nutrition (TPN). Complications include fluid imbalances, electrolyte imbalances, glucose imbalances, and infection.

Nursing diagnoses and Interventions for malnutrition
Nursing diagnosis (ND) and interventions include possibilities such as the following: Imbalanced Nutrition: less than body requirements; assess client, provide rest, assess knowledge and provide teaching.

Risk for infection; monitor for infection, maintain medical asepsis, teach signs of infection and hand washing techniques.

Risk for deficient fluid volume; monitor for dehydration, measure input and output, daily weight, allow frequent, preferred fluids.

Risk for impaired skin integrity; assess skin, turn every two hours, keep skin dry and clean.

Nursing Study Guide/Eye and Ear Disorders

Eye and ear disorders Nursing Study Guide Eye disorders

2.7% are blind or low vision. Refractive errors are the most common, myopia at 25.4%, hyperopia at 9.9%. Cataracts are 17.2%, macular degeneration 7.6%, diabetic neuropathy 3.4%, glaucoma 1.9% Acute conjunctivitis

May be bacterial (staphylococcus, hemophalius, gonococcus) and is a medical emergency. May be viral (adenovirus is most common among adults, also herpes simplex). May be fungal.

Manifestations include redness, burning, pruritis, a gritty or sandy sensation, photophobia, tearing, and discharge. Associated manifestations include pharyngitis, fever, malaise, and lymphadenopathy.

Chronic conjunctivitis

Trachoma Chronic conjunctivitis may be caused by chlamydia trachomatis. It is endemic in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. May be transmitted via genitals during birth. Conjunctivitis may be diagnosed using culture and sensitivity testing, fluorescence staining, scrapings from conjunctiva, blood counts, antibody titers. Medications are specific to the causative organism; may include antibiotic, antivirals, antifungals, antihistamines, complementary/alternative therapy, eye irrigation, and saline compresses.

Nursing Care for clients suffering conjunctivitis includes health promotion, handwashing, sharing personal items (makeup, contacts), assessment, health history (symptoms, allergies, history of illness, any chronic illnesses), physical assessment (visual acuity, inspection, vital signs). Nursing Diagnoses (ND) for clients with conjunctivitis include the following: Risk for Infection, and Risk for disturbed sensory perception visual

Corneal disorders: refractory errors Corneal disorders include refractory errors, which include abnormal curvature of cornea; this is the most common visual acuity problem. Mypoia is "nearsightedness" in which the curvature of the cornea is elongated, and the image focuses in front of the retina. In hyperopia the curvature of the cornea is shortened, causing the focus of the image to be behind the retina. In astigmatism the curvature of the cornea is irregular, resulting in distorted vision.

Hi Unknown001! Please don't get disappointed that nobody responds to your suggestion. Sometimes it take longer time, but someone will respond eventually. To the photoshop issue: I am not sure about the sizes (you need to check) but as far as it is your work and you are willing to release it under GFDL license, I see no problem with uploading. But please note, that those images should have some educational content, or be part of some course or tutorial (in other words, you need to find some reason why to upload them here). You also might be interested in this link. I made a section at YouTube hunting project, just for you :). In case you are interested, you might help to collect the best videos here.

User:MandaG/Tutorial and lecture 6

WOHOO! No lecture today, discovered approx 15minutes after waiting for others to show...good times.

The tutorial however, still on!

The tutorial while not involving any activities that I've come to love so much was still of great interest. Jane Elliott is one scary lady! James said prior to watching the Blue-eyed Brown-eyed "experiment" (The Australian Eye)that we will either love her or hate her and I LOVE HER! She is the most frightening lady I can ever imagine sharing a room with but the experiment being conducted was, to me at least, awesome!

While I can see why people may be upset with the techniques of degredation and discrimination, I think the participants voluntarily entered the program and could just as easily leave and that assuming they were appropriately debriefed after the session there should be no long lasting detrimental effects. Whereas I think the participants will probably remember their feelings and experience for quite while. I found it interesting that many people in our tute were not impressed and while I think I would happily participate in such an experiment quite a few expressed their unwillingness, hostility or frustration with the experiment. The question I am interested in finding other people's opinions about is why no females left? From what I can tell they were given quite a bad time, particularly "Blondie" yet she stayed...The secind fellow would rather leave than raise his left hand. Any ideas or thoughts in why that may be?

Our thoughts were then shifted to the "Ghosts of Rwanda" movie. All agreed it was an atrocity and that it is apalling that politicians would play a technicality game on what genocide actually is. GENOCIDE for God's sake...if it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck its GENOCIDE!I know they say hindsight is 20 20, but I find it very hard to understand how the world let it go as far as it did but what stood out to me, even more than the blatant disregard for human life in Rwanda, was the outstanding courage displayed by those that stayed in the mess, chaos and destruction. I find it very uplifting that in the face of extreme human tragedy that there are still people who will stand up knowing the possible consequences to their own safety, and say this is wrong something needs to be done. I was also adverse to the idea of the "Truth and Reconcilliation" program, while understanding why it went that way, something about people who have killed not in self defence wondering the street does not sit well with me, perhaps something to do with me studying law?

Just checking this out...I have never used wiki before so I am exploring!

Hi Kristin, I have never used anything like this either but it is cool? It is going to be interesting working with everyone and learning how to use this. --Betsyl 21:11, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

I am just saying hi, im playing around with this page.

Please remember to use the in the edit window of this page so we know who the comments are coming from. Thanks!--Shannonhart 16:27, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I actually like this better than DB. It seems more personal and allows us to really work as a class.  Carolyn
 * Great - may I ask out of curiosity what DB stands for ? Thanks, Erkan Yilmaz uses the Chat (try) 22:03, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Erkan, DB refers to the Discussion Board in our Blackboard elearning environment. This is an online class that has branched out to wikiversity because of limitations in Blackboard.--Shannonhart 16:28, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Question: supposed to check in here also ?
I was wondering if we were supposed to check in here also. Could someone let me know!

Jonie Chavis Sept. 8,m 2008

 * Jonie, I just figured out how to do so, but we are suppose to check in here also. If you disagree with any of the definitions or want to add something to them to make the definition complete you should do so by tonight, or post it here in the discussion.  (AmandaB)

Questions or doubts about definitions ?
Our definitions have grown quite well. Does anyone have any questions or doubts about them before we start looking them up? --Shannonhart 16:29, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I think everyone has summited great definitions. We have such a different variety of ways to define each word, and I think its good to read what first comes to mind when each of my classmates think of these vocabulary words.  I do agree with Betsy on the word discipline and child, but in all I think the class has done great.  I added a little bit to a couple more words, and I cant wait to see all of the real definitions when everyone starts summiting them tomorrow! (AmandaB)

Child
I love the definitions for Child. Someone of small stature is good but couldnt that be viewed as an adult also? When I read that definition the first thing that came to my mind was dwarfs or little people. And if you think about it, Someone who needs to be taken care of could be an older adult also. But these are very good definitions. --Betsyl 07:13, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Betsy, I agree with you about the child definition. They are good definitions but could also mean adults! (AmandaB)

Discipline
I was looking at how someone defined discipline as how you handle a situation. I would think that is more of an action taken to correct bad behavior or to teach good behavior but I could be wrong. It just seems to me that (how you handle a situation)is to broad when defining discipline. However, discipline is certainly a situation and i guess you have to handle it. --Betsyl 06:57, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Betsy, I agree. When I read the word, I wondered if the "context" (one of our words!! HA!) was as in discipline of a child, employee, etc. or discipline within yourself.  This is definitely a broad term.  Carolyn

Normal
I think this is a hard word to define. What is normal to one person or group may not be normal to another.--Lisaz 14:55, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Good point. People's cultural identity is so different and varies in so many ways.  What may be normal to me may seem offensive to you.  For example, in Islamic culture, women are treated bad.  Although it seems harsh to me, to them, it seems perfectly normal.  Carolyn

I agree, it is like trying to define the word religion because there are so many different religions. --Betsyl 22:31, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Child
I argree with Besty, I thought the same thing when I read someone of small stature. I immediately thought of little people. Also, someone with, for example, Alzheimer's, needs to be cared for, but are they a child? Possibly mentally? This really gives you something to think about.--Lisaz 14:55, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Oops I think I forgot to log on when I added my dictionary definitions to the Wiki. I went back and added my name to the ones that I did. Sorry.

Learning
--Consandram 19:12, 18 September 2008 (UTC)I'm just catching on to wiki. Could someone tell me if the three new words are the ones by Besty in red. Consandra

New Words
I added the words acceptence, play, mainstream, and inclusion to the Wiki along with what I think the definitions are. Let me know what you all think. - LisaZ

Y'all have added excellent words! I just added family and adoption. I will be adding some more soon. ~AmandaB~

New Words
I added the words cognitive, influence, and variable chapters 1 and 2 in the textbook. I wrote what I think they mean. Let me know what you think or if someone wants to give an official definition, that would be great.--Lisaz 21:32, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

stereotype
I added this word and the definition to the Wiki.--Lisaz 14:33, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Lisa, I think this was an excellent word to add. So many people stereotype people and don't even know what it means! Great Job! ~AmandaB~

I added the words Puberty and Obesity to our list. Take a look at the definitions and let me know what yall think. Also add anything you can think of too. Thanks! ~Amanda B~

I'm adding the word intelligence to the word list. We start talking about this in Chapter 8.--65.191.196.83 23:05, 13 October 2008 (UTC)--AmyJ I only added what I thought the word meant so if anyone else want to take a shot at it before we put the definition go ahead.--AmyJ 23:19, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Amy, I think intellegence is a good word for the Wiki. I added my personal definition to yours--Lisaz 20:56, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Piaget
I added the word adaptation, assimilation, and egocentrism to the Wiki along with the definitions of what I think they mean. I came across these words in chapter 6. I would appreciated anyone eles's input :) Thanks--Lisaz 20:56, 19 October 2008 (UTC) My understanding for the word egocentrism would be a self-centered person. What do yoiu think? (consandram). I think this is true but I think it has to do with how a person uses their self-centeredness to make judgements on other people and cultures.  Does someone want to look this up?--Lisaz 01:58, 21 October 2008 (UTC)I looked it up in the back of our textbook it states: The failure to distinguish the symbolic viewpoints of others from one's own.--Consandram 22:29, 26 October 2008 (UTC)Without looking it up I would have put that egocentrism would be a self-centered person just like you said and it seems that basically that's what the definition states.--AmyJ 03:31, 27 October 2008 (UTC) I added what I thought for adaptation and assimilation and after posting I realize that for some reason my definition for both sound almost the same. For adaptaion I put you try to conform to your surrounding in order to fit in and for assimilation you change in order to be like everyone around you. I will give others a chance to put what they think and then maybe me or someone else can look it up.--AmyJ 03:31, 27 October 2008 (UTC) Thanks for responding to my words. I looked up the word egocentrism. I also added the word plasticity because one of the experts in the Child's Brain PBS video really stressed its importance on how children learn. I also added what I think it means. It would be great if you guys added to it or if someone wants to give an official definition. Thanks --Lisaz 01:46, 29 October 2008 (UTC) Hey, Lisa I just looked up the definition for plasticity and you were right it meant capable of being shaped or formed, nice job!--AmyJ 22:19, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

I know everyone is busy with field placement, but I wanted to add the word "ethics" to the wiki because Dr. Garder talked so much about it in the podcast as it petains to to what are our rights and what are are responsibilities. I thought he made a great point so I added it along with my definition. Thanks--Lisaz 04:50, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

I added the words Metacognition and Knowledge from Chapter 7. Take a look at the definitions that I added, and add to them please. Thanks! AmandaB
