Collectively, 43 students edited 43 Wikipedia articles. Student contributions were reviewed by classroom peers, topic experts, and the Wikipedia community. Following the class, the Wikipedia articles edited by the students were accessed more than 22 million times by Wikipedia readers. The authors of the paper argue that students met learning goals by editing Wikipedia, and that Wikipedia is an efficient way for anyone to share information with a large, relevant audience. </p><p>The research is significant because Wikipedia continues to gain popularity as a source of medical information among health-science professionals and students. Having a Wikipedia editing case-study in a medical school is especially pertinent because readers use the information to inform healthcare decisions. </p><p>Historically, many Wikipedia outreach projects have focused on reporting Wikipedia participation. This study highlighted the impact to readers by tracking <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Pageview_statistics" title="Wikipedia:Pageview statistics">Wikipedia pageviews</a> of the articles edited by the students. Although a comparison to other publishing channels was outside the scope of the study, the paper does provocatively ask if a student-written article "garners over 100,000 views/ month, might those edits constitute the greatest contribution to the medical literature in that student’s nascent career?” </p><p>Following this paper’s publication, the authors make the following calls to action: </p><p>First, they would like Wikipedians to support instructors in considering class projects that include student Wikipedia editing. When an instructor and students can accept the time involved in the Wikipedia Education Program, the students gain practical experience in new media publishing; Wikipedia editors access high-quality information to process; professors have the opportunity to guide text in their field of expertise that will be widely read around the world; the school gains prestige for making a real-world impact, and Wikipedia readers have access to improved information in Wikipedia articles. </p><p>Second, the authors would like ask whether any method exists which is more efficient to share general interest information than Wikipedia. Right now, Wikipedia’s significance is broadly doubted in education, publishing, and the media. Despite the doubts, perhaps no other organization reaches a larger or more relevant audience than Wikipedia in medicine, or any other field for that matter. Are there other reputable authorities who will make their readership metrics public for comparison? <small><a href="/wiki/User:Bluerasberry" title="User:Bluerasberry">LR</a></small> </p><p><span class="anchor" id="Saintonge"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Ray_Saintonge_(Eclecticology)_dies" data-mw-thread-id="h-Ray_Saintonge_(Eclecticology)_dies-signpost-article-title"><span id="Ray_Saintonge_.28Eclecticology.29_dies"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Ray_Saintonge_(Eclecticology)_dies-signpost-article-title"></span>Ray Saintonge (Eclecticology) dies<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Ray_Saintonge_(Eclecticology)_dies-signpost-article-title"></span></h3></div> </div><div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="signpost-sidebar" style="width:300px; float:right; padding-left:20px;"> <figure class="mw-halign-center" typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Ray_Saintonge_at_Heathrow_Terminal_5,_2011.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Ray_Saintonge_at_Heathrow_Terminal_5%2C_2011.jpg/300px-Ray_Saintonge_at_Heathrow_Terminal_5%2C_2011.jpg" decoding="async" width="300" height="484" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Ray_Saintonge_at_Heathrow_Terminal_5%2C_2011.jpg/450px-Ray_Saintonge_at_Heathrow_Terminal_5%2C_2011.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Ray_Saintonge_at_Heathrow_Terminal_5%2C_2011.jpg/600px-Ray_Saintonge_at_Heathrow_Terminal_5%2C_2011.jpg 2x" data-file-width="850" data-file-height="1371"/></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> <div style="clear:both; padding:5px; padding-top:10px; width:290px; font-size:0.85em; color:#4D4D4D; line-height:1.35em;">Ray Saintonge in 2011.</div> </div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1248130340"><div class="wp-signpost-block"> <table class="cquote pullquote" role="presentation" style="margin:auto; border-collapse: collapse; border: none; width: auto;"> <tbody><tr> <td style="width: 20px; vertical-align: top; border: none; color: darkgray; font-size: 40px; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-weight: bold; line-height: .6em; text-align: left; padding: 10px 10px;">“ </td> <td style="vertical-align: top; border: none; padding: 4px 10px;">After a courageous battle with cancer, my loving husband, my best friend, and a wonderful father passed away peacefully yesterday morning.

Raymond Michael Saintonge, better known to many Wikimedians as <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/en:User:Eclecticology" class="extiw" title="wikt:en:User:Eclecticology">User:Eclecticology</a>, died at the age of 73 on September 12, 2016, with his family at his side. </p><p>True to his username, Ray impacted numerous facets of the Wikimedia world in a wiki career of 14 years. His local newspaper in <a href="/wiki/Richmond,_British_Columbia" title="Richmond, British Columbia">Richmond, British Columbia</a> published a <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/tricitynews/obituary.aspx?n=raymond-michael-saintonge&pid=181488244">death notice</a>, and many Wikimedians learned of his passing through a message posted to Facebook (not publicly visible), and republished to the <a href="https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-l/2016-September/085149.html" class="extiw" title="mailarchive:wikimedia-l/2016-September/085149.html">Wikimedia-L email list</a>, comprising a short message from his family in English and French. </p><p>Ray first edited Wikipedia in February 2002, with a series of additions to the <a href="/wiki/Library_of_Congress_catalog_scheme" class="mw-redirect" title="Library of Congress catalog scheme">Library of Congress catalog scheme</a> page. Making more than 1,000 edits in his first month, to topics as varied as chess, Shakespeare, indigenous peoples, as well as service pages like disambiguation and talk pages, he had clearly found a platform that facilitated exploration of his varied interests. His <a href="/wiki/User:Eclecticology" title="User:Eclecticology">English Wikipedia user page</a> still carries a barnstar, awarded in 2011, for his contributions to <a href="/wiki/The_Cambridge_Modern_History" title="The Cambridge Modern History">The Cambridge Modern History</a>. Ray was among those credited by Andrew Lih, in the acknowledgments for his 2009 book <i>Wikipedia Revolution</i>, as among "those who gave special insight on the community". </p><p>But Ray didn't stop with Wikipedia; according to his several user pages, he was involved with the launch of Wikisource, and was Wiktionary's first bureaucrat. Over the years, he <a class="external text" href="https://tools.wmflabs.org/guc/?user=Eclecticology&blocks=true">accumulated 36,000 edits to 62 Wikimedia sites</a>. His early and ongoing engagement was cited in a <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/wiki/foundation/121471?search_string=eclecticology;#121471">2008 email discussion</a> building the case for registration of the Wikimedia trademarks in Canada. One illustration of the breadth of Ray's interests was his work on the "Authors lists" for the site <i>Canada's Early Women Writers</i>, a project based at the University of Alberta, where his detailed work is in evidence in the discussions at the bottom of <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://ceww.wordpress.com/authors-lists/authors-in-process/">the initial page</a>. </p><p>Ray <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania/Frequent_attendees" class="extiw" title="meta:Wikimania/Frequent attendees">attended</a> each of the first ten annual Wikimania conferences, beginning in Frankfurt in 2005. He shared this distinction with just seven others. Colleagues praised his unwavering attendance, his pleasant manner, and his insights in <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/wiki/foundation/739710">their comments on Wikimedia-L</a>. </p><p>Ray's <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Eclecticology" class="extiw" title="meta:Special:Contributions/Eclecticology">contributions to Meta Wiki</a> reflect his ongoing interest in the policies and organizational structures of the Wikimedia movement. For many years he was a valued <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://markmail.org/search/?q=from%3A%22ray+saintonge%22">participant in mailing lists</a> such as Wikimedia-L (previously known as Foundation-L). He ran for a seat on the Wikimedia Foundation's Board of Trustees in 2008; his <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/Board_elections/2008/Candidates/en#Ray_Saintonge_(Eclecticology)" class="extiw" title="meta:Wikimedia Foundation elections/Board elections/2008/Candidates/en">candidate statement</a> offers a glimpse into his background, his personality, and his philosophical views relating to Wikimedia. He mentioned his career as a tax consultant, and his volunteer work in his son's school district; and described himself as a "manic" book collector and a "clutterholic". He emphasized his interest in governance issues, and in the importance of grassroots leadership and the autonomy of Wikimedia projects. He expressed concern about technical obstacles to editing, and advocated for chapters taking a leading role in decentralizing Wikimedia's organizational structure. In 2014, he added his name to a <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Letter_to_Wikimedia_Foundation:_Superprotect_and_Media_Viewer" class="extiw" title="meta:Letter to Wikimedia Foundation: Superprotect and Media Viewer">letter to Wikimedia Foundation leadership</a> (which I wrote), reflecting his ongoing interest in less centralized control. </p><p>Ray's interest in governance and politics never pushed aside his core appreciation for sharing knowledge, or his drive to connect with colleagues. A moment recalled by <a href="/w/index.php?title=User:Benoit_Rochon&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:Benoit Rochon (page does not exist)">Benoit Rochon</a>, a colleague at Wikimedia Canada who was visiting Ray's home, reveals that passion: Ray, with eyes sparkling, handed Benoit the oldest book he has ever held in his life. <a href="/wiki/User:Llywrch" title="User:Llywrch">Llywrch</a>—himself no stranger to the challenges of an unusual username—recalled Ray sharing his own amusement that nobody could pronounce his username. </p><p>Ray served on the Chapters Committee from 2010 to 2013, during which time it changed its name to the <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Affiliations_Committee" class="extiw" title="meta:Affiliations Committee">Affiliations Committee</a> (AffCom), and adjusted its scope. It was during Ray's tenure on AffCom that I made his acquaintance at several conferences; we shared a hotel room, and several enjoyable conversations, during the 2011 Wikimania conference. Ray and his colleagues on AffCom grappled with governance issues that continue to the present day, as <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2016-09-06/News_and_notes" title="Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2016-09-06/News and notes">covered in the previous edition of the <i>Signpost</i></a>. </p><p>In 2011, Ray joined the Board of Directors of Wikimedia Canada, where he served for several years.

The division's baptism by fire came in the first days of the Battle of the Somme, where it captured the strongly held Mametz Wood at the loss of nearly 4,000 men. After a distinguished record during the first world war, it ceased to exist by March 1919, but was reformed in 1939. It was never deployed overseas as a division, having been restricted to home defence duties around the United Kingdom. In 1944, it was disbanded and than recreated as a training formation. In this form, the division completed the training of recruits, who were then dispatched overseas as reinforcements.

Le Guin, published in 1969. The novel follows the story of Genly Ai, a native of Terra, who is sent to the planet of Gethen as an envoy of the Ekumen, a loose confederation of planets. Ai's mission is to persuade the nations of Gethen to join the Ekumen, but he is stymied by his lack of understanding of Gethenian culture. Individuals on Gethen are "ambisexual", with no fixed gender identity. This fact has a strong influence on the culture of the planet, and creates a barrier of understanding for Ai. The novel became immensely popular; in 1970 it won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards as the year's Best Novel, and established Le Guin's status as a major author of science fiction.</li> <li><b><a href="/wiki/Chicago_Pile-1" title="Chicago Pile-1">Chicago Pile-1</a></b> <small><i>(<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Chicago_Pile-1/archive1" title="Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Chicago Pile-1/archive1">nominated</a> by <a href="/wiki/User:Hawkeye7" title="User:Hawkeye7">Hawkeye7</a>)</i></small> was the world's first nuclear reactor to achieve criticality.

It was built by the Manhattan Project's Metallurgical Laboratory at the University of Chicago, under the west viewing stands of the original Stagg Field. The first human-initiated, self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction occurred in CP-1 in 1942 under the supervision of Enrico Fermi, who described the apparatus as "a crude pile of black bricks and wooden timbers". In 1943, CP-1 was moved to Red Gate Woods, and reconfigured to become Chicago Pile-2.

She was originally built for the Austro-Hungarian Navy as the name ship of the <i>Enns</i>-class river monitors. As SMS <i>Enns</i>, she was part of the Danube Flotilla during World War I, and fought against the Serbian and Romanian armies from Belgrade to the lower Danube. After World War I she was provided to the newly created Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, and renamed Drava. She remained in service throughout the interwar period, but was not always in full commission due to budget restrictions. During the German-led Axis invasion of Yugoslavia in 1941, Drava spent six days shelling airfields near Mohács in Hungary and fought off a small flotilla of Hungarian gunboats. Later she was attacked by Junkers Ju 87 Stuka dive bombers of the Luftwaffe. The anti-aircraft gunners on the ship claimed three enemy aircraft, but nine of the Stukas scored hits. She was raised and scrapped by Hungary during their occupation of parts of Yugoslavia.</li> <li><b><a href="/wiki/Candaules,_King_of_Lydia,_Shews_his_Wife_by_Stealth_to_Gyges,_One_of_his_Ministers,_as_She_Goes_to_Bed" title="Candaules, King of Lydia, Shews his Wife by Stealth to Gyges, One of his Ministers, as She Goes to Bed"><i>Candaules, King of Lydia, Shews his Wife by Stealth to Gyges, One of his Ministers, as She Goes to Bed</i></a></b> <small><i>(<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Candaules,_King_of_Lydia,_Shews_his_Wife_by_Stealth_to_Gyges,_One_of_his_Ministers,_as_She_Goes_to_Bed/archive1" title="Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Candaules, King of Lydia, Shews his Wife by Stealth to Gyges, One of his Ministers, as She Goes to Bed/archive1">nominated</a> by <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Iridescent" title="User talk:Iridescent">Iridescent</a>)</i></small> is a 45.1 by 55.9 cm (17.8 by 22.0 in) oil painting on canvas by English artist William Etty, first exhibited in 1830. It shows a scene from the Histories by Herodotus, in which Candaules, king of Lydia, invites his bodyguard Gyges to hide in the couple's bedroom and watch his wife Nyssia undress, to prove to him her beauty. Nyssia notices Gyges spying, and challenges him to either kill himself or Candaules as a punishment; Gyges chooses to kill Candaules and to take his place as king. The painting shows the moment at which Nyssia, at this point unaware that she is being watched by anyone other than her husband, removes the last of her clothes. The painting was immediately controversial, and perceived as a cynical combination of a pornographic image and a violent and unpleasant narrative, and it was condemned as an immoral piece of the type one would expect from a foreign, not a British, artist.</li> <li><b><a href="/wiki/Title_TK" title="Title TK"><i>Title TK</i></a></b> <small><i>(<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Title_TK/archive2" title="Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Title TK/archive2">nominated</a> by <a href="/wiki/User:Moisejp" title="User:Moisejp">Moisejp</a>)</i></small> is the third studio album by American alternative rock band the Breeders, released in 2002 by 4AD in the United Kingdom and Elektra Records in the United States.

As a young man, he belonged to a group of Jewish friends who are today known as the Whitechapel Boys, many of whom later achieved fame as writers and artists. Though less radical in his use of language, he has been compared to his more renowned Whitechapel friend, Isaac Rosenberg, in terms of diction and verbal energy. Aaronson's poetry is characterised as more post-Georgian than modernistic, and reviewers have traced influences from both the English poet John Keats, and Hebrew poets such as Shaul Tchernichovsky and Zalman Shneur. In total, he published three collections of poetry: <i>Christ in the Synagogue</i> (1930), <i>Poems</i> (1933), and <i>The Homeward Journey and Other Poems</i> (1946).</li> <li><b><a href="/wiki/Ride_the_Lightning" title="Ride the Lightning"><i>Ride the Lightning</i></a></b> <small><i>(<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Ride_the_Lightning/archive2" title="Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Ride the Lightning/archive2">nominated</a> by <a href="/wiki/User:Retrohead" title="User:Retrohead">Retrohead</a>)</i></small> is the second studio album by American heavy metal band Metallica, released in 1984, by the independent label Megaforce Records. The album was recorded in three weeks with producer Flemming Rasmussen at the Sweet Silence Studios in Copenhagen, Denmark. Although rooted in the thrash metal genre, the album showcased the band's musical growth and lyrical sophistication. Instead of relying strictly on fast tempos as on its debut <i>Kill 'Em All</i>, Metallica broadened its approach by employing acoustic guitars, extended instrumentals, and more complex harmonies. The album received positive response from music critics, who saw it as a more ambitious effort than its predecessor. It peaked at number 100 on the <i>Billboard</i> 200, and sold half a million copies by November 1987.

In this event, a game update included a new character that could inflict a "corrupted blood" disease that damaged characters over time. It could spread to nearby characters, but was not intended to spread out of the area where it was introduced. A programming error allowed the disease to spread, and it caused death and mass mayhem for a week.

Of course, the fact that this event got more views than the 15th anniversary of the <a href="/wiki/September_11_attacks" title="September 11 attacks">September 11 attacks</a> (#4) does not mean the this virtual plague got more worldwide attention.

But we as a culture, and perhaps as a species, can't handle that. So instead we shine lights on specific examples particularly deviant or prurient in their details, dubbed "media friendly", allowing us to shelter in our moral outrage. And boy did the murder of poor JonBenét Ramsey give us the chance to do that. JonBenét was a product of that strangely American industry, child beauty pageants, which, with their overly made up contestants made to look like living Barbie dolls, gave her murder a slightly paedophilic cast despite having no proven connection to her murder. And with the media having anointed her as their icon of shattered innocence <i>du jour</i>, it is unsurprising that, with the approaching 20th anniversary of her death, the media have again chosen to anoint themselves the sole arbiters of truth and justice in her murder. Several television specials accounting the details of her death or offering new "evidence" have been shown or are in development, but the clear driver of views for this list is <i><a href="/wiki/The_Case_of:_JonBen%C3%A9t_Ramsey" title="The Case of: JonBenét Ramsey">The Case of: JonBenét Ramsey</a></i>, a <a href="/wiki/CBS" title="CBS">CBS</a> "documentary" that aired on Monday and Tuesday this week. Unlike the more cautious (rational) approaches taken by other networks, CBS decided to flat out name their chosen suspect, JonBenét's then nine-year-old brother, Burke. Needless to say, they're now getting threatened with defamation suits, and in the ensuing lahar of speculation, people turned to Wikipedia for clarity.

Titles are now sorted according to the <a href="/wiki/Unicode_collation_algorithm" title="Unicode collation algorithm">Unicode collation algorithm</a> (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T136150" class="extiw" title="phabricator:T136150">phabricator task</a>). The most noticeable change is that characters which differ only in <a href="/wiki/Diacritic" title="Diacritic">diacritics</a> are now sorted together. Also, <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgCategoryCollation#Numeric_sorting" class="extiw" title="mw:Manual:$wgCategoryCollation">numeric sorting</a> is now supported, closing a <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T8948" class="extiw" title="phabricator:T8948">10-year-old bug</a>. This should, in many cases, alleviate the need for custom keys to be defined using the <a href="/wiki/Help:Magic_words#Behavior_switches" title="Help:Magic words">DEFAULTSORT behavior switch</a>. </p><p>It took approximately a week to regenerate all of the sort keys for English Wikipedia. During this time (29 August to 6 September), sorting in categories was unreliable, prompting reports and discussion in several threads on the technical Village Pump (<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_149#Sorting_in_categories_unreliable_for_a_few_days" title="Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)/Archive 149">now archived</a>). One remaining issue is that hyphens are now sorted before commas. This means that hyphenated surnames are sorted earlier if articles use DEFAULTSORT keys of the form "Surname, First name". For example, sorting <a href="/wiki/Jessica_Ennis-Hill" title="Jessica Ennis-Hill">Jessica Ennis-Hill</a> (sort key "Ennis-Hill, Jessica") before <a href="/wiki/Andy_Ennis" title="Andy Ennis">Andy Ennis</a> (sort key "Ennis, Andy"). The issue is <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T144634" class="extiw" title="phab:T144634">being investigated</a>. One proposed solution is to switch to using "Surname First name" in DEFAULTSORT keys. </p><p>Improvements to category sorting were one of the projects worked on by the WMF's <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Tech" class="extiw" title="m:Community Tech">Community Tech team</a>. The "<a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Tech/Numerical_sorting_in_categories" class="extiw" title="m:Community Tech/Numerical sorting in categories">Numerical sorting in categories</a>" proposal was <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/2015_Community_Wishlist_Survey/Results" class="extiw" title="m:2015 Community Wishlist Survey/Results">ranked #5</a> on the 2015 Community Wishlist Survey, having received 85 support votes. The new collation has also been deployed to Swedish Wikipedia, and may be rolled out to other wikis which agree to switch to the new sorting system. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="See_how_template_parameters_are_used" data-mw-thread-id="h-See_how_template_parameters_are_used-signpost-article-title"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-See_how_template_parameters_are_used-signpost-article-title"></span>See how template parameters are used<span data-mw-comment-end="h-See_how_template_parameters_are_used-signpost-article-title"></span></h3></div> <p>The <a class="external text" href="https://tools.wmflabs.org/bambots/TemplateParam.php">Template Parameters tool</a> is now available on <a href="https://iw.toolforge.org/" class="extiw" title="toollabs:">Tool Labs</a>, for viewing template parameter usage.
