Evidence based assessment
Hi Eyoungstrom!

Your clinical resource Evidence based assessment appears to be well-developed and ready for general learners! Would you like to have it announced on our Main Page News? --Marshallsumter (discuss • contribs) 20:34, 25 June 2017 (UTC)

DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/3HKB4
Hi. I saw you created DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/3HKB4 with the content - could you explain why? I'm not sure what purpose it served, and your summary of "fixed link" was a bit confusing. I deleted the page, since it looked like a test page, but if you want it restored I can. Thanks, --DannyS712 (discuss • contribs) 06:36, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks! You are right, it was an accident -- I was trying to add a link from the phone, and created the stub instead. Marking it for deletion was on my list of things to do this weekend. Much appreciated!

Helping Give Away Psychological Science
Is there something about the recent additions to Helping Give Away Psychological Science that could be added to News? This is an excellent use of Wikiversity that we'd like to recognize and encourage. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 14:29, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

Just checking again on a news announcement, either for Helping Give Away Psychological Science or for Evidence-Based Assessment. Highlighting these resources may encourage others to use Wikiversity for their efforts. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 15:03, 13 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi, Dave, yes, I would like that. I am sorry I was slow to respond. It's been challenging to figure out how to navigate the COVID situation and the changes in teaching format, plus dealing with some other major stresses and life events in the outside world. I am way behind on a lot of projects as a result. If you are still game, than maybe we could do something in December? Much appreciated! --Eyoungstrom (discuss • contribs) 11:24, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

Helping Give Away Psychological Science/nnnn
Wikiversity naming conventions try to refrain from including sequence numbers in page titles. The recent group of HGAPS subpages all include a not-obviously-related number of some type. Can these pages be renamed? -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 21:30, 4 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi, @Dave Braunschweig! Thanks for reaching out about this! I apologize for the departures from convention. I am going to provide some context here, and ask for help problem solving, or for permission to leave this as is for the rest of 2021 as an experiment. Rationale to follow quickly. I am going to post it here tonight. Big thanks, Eyoungstrom (discuss • contribs) 23:24, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay, this is going to be a long reply! But I want to give you a big picture and some details as fast as I can on-Wiki.
 * I know that we have talked once before (around Father’s Day) a couple of years ago, and that would be the fastest way to talk this through, but I also understand that you want as much as possible to be documented on Wiki.
 * A blend might be great -- quick conversation to explain and agree on a solution and parameters, and I will document On Wiki (or we both can document -- you will be faster).
 * Key detail-- We see these pages as a workspace for teaching projects. When the content matures, we will rename the pages or copy and paste material to a more polished-looking page with a conventional title.
 * Options I know about that have considered but don’t think will work:
 * Put it in a sandbox:
 * This is the apparent solution to the experienced Wiki editors. The problems: these pages are a bridge that is connecting the students with consultants who have no Wiki experience. On ::the Discuss page, there are links to GoogleDocs (which are much easier for consultants to edit). There are corresponding numbered pieces off Wiki (an OSF.io project, a Slack Channel, a ::Google Drive folder, working agendas and goals and project milestones). So this is the link connecting outside experts with “inside wiki” experts (like you!).
 * Put it in draft:
 * The number is key for establishing the linkage between the different platforms. We would still want to have the number featured prominently in the page name. Draft also complicates some of the other aspects of editing.
 * Put in user sandbox
 * hard for others to find, and violates etiquette to have other people editing in a user sandbox.
 * That was the thought process that led to my creating these in mainspace on Wikiversity, but only in a specific location (under the /Helping_Give_Away_Psychological_Science page) so that they are not causing havoc. Furthermore, my intention was not to link them anywhere within Wikiversity where teaching resources are in use. Essentially, I am having a set of “unlisted” pages that connect project management resources outside Wiki with a specific location and set of resources inside Wiki.
 * The teams have varying numbers of contributors involved (1 to 20ish), and only a handful of people involved with HGAPS have accounts on *all* of the platforms involved (Wiki, Slack, OSF, Google Suites for nonprofits).
 * Creating these “bridge” pages is organizing a set of portals for the “connector” people to be able to communicate with experts like you inside Wiki, as well as teams with little or no Wiki editing skills on the outside.
 * We are putting the links to the GoogleDocs, etc. on the Discuss page (hidden in plain sight), so you or other people could follow the links to see the activity off-wiki (much of which would not be interesting or useful to document on Wiki, anyway), but this could be valuable for increasing transparency.
 * I am using some of these numbered pages to try to connect 5 teams of students in an Econ 325 class taught by a different faculty member with a few experienced Wiki Editors to have their class projects be easier to move onto Wiki (commons and Wikiversity, most likely). They are doing a four week sprint that will be done by Thanksgiving. It’s too compressed to teach them how to edit while they are doing their main project, but this hybrid is building a connection for these to migrate to mature and cleaner looking products in December/January (when the Econ 325 students will have graduated or at least finished this class).
 * There are a lot of logistics and moving parts.
 * We can delete or rename all of these in December, but it would be a huge help if we could leave things as they are until Thanksgiving, with my promise that we will only do this in one location, and only for the purpose of building “bridges” between distributed teams with mixed skill sets.
 * I would be glad to evaluate with you and anyone else in December to debrief, figure out lessons learned, and codify best practices going forward.
 * LMK if anything else would be helpful. Super open to meeting via Zoom -- I would love to be able to show you what’s happening outside of Wiki, and how we are trying to connect everything. I would like to record any such Zoom, put it on YouTube, and link it to the Wikiversity page as another way of building a connection and sharing more of the off-Wiki activity as transparently as I know how inside Wiki.
 * VERY open to suggestions or ideas. My email is eyoungstrom@hgaps.org if you or anyone wants to reach me that way.
 * Big thanks -- you are the keeper of the flame for Wikiversity, and I am realizing that and I am grateful for all you are doing.

 * Thanks for the detailed explanation. It would be helpful if there was a comment at the top of the Talk page introducing the resource as HGAPS project nnnn and described a bit more about the project and/or timeline, etc. Other than that, yes, leave the pages as is and rename them once the project is complete. Going forward, I wonder if putting such pages under an HGAPS/Draft/ or similar heading would help differentiate work in progress from active resource pages. Thanks for your consideration! -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 16:29, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Excellent! We could move them all to the location you suggested now. A page move creates a redirect so that the external links to the Wikiversity page would automatically redirect, right? If that's the case, I will take care of it by Tuesday, and will update the SOPs no later than next Thursday.
 * It will be intriguing to see how this works; it's an experiment, for sure. I don't know what your academic schedule is this fall. I am very much in "scramble mode" until after Thanksgiving, but then things should lighten. Let me know if you would be willing to debrief together -- I would be grateful for any time or consultation you might be able to squeeze in. Very best regards in the meantime! -- Eyoungstrom (discuss • contribs) 17:02, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
