I stay at home and look after the children http://denali2013.org/teachers-section/ domperidone motilium In 2012 Gardner formed two teamsรขยยnow called Growth and Core Featuresรขยยto try to reverse the decline by making changes to Wikipediaรขยยs website. One idea from the researchers, software engineers, and designers in these groups was the รขยยThankรขยย button, Wikipediaรขยยs answer to Facebookรขยยs ubiquitous รขยยLike.รขยย Since May, editors have been able to click the Thank button to quickly acknowledge good contributions by others. Itรขยยs the first time they have been given a tool designed solely to deliver positive feedback for individual edits, says Steven Walling, product manager on the Growth team. รขยยThere have always been one-button-push tools to react to negative edits,รขยย he says. รขยยBut thereรขยยs never been a way to just be, like, รขยยWell, that was pretty good, thanks.รขยยรขยย รยญWallingรขยยs group has focused much of its work on making life easier for new editors. One idea being tested offers newcomers suggestions about what to work on, steering them toward easy tasks such as copyediting articles that need it. The hope is this will give people time to gain confidence before they break a rule and experience the tough side of Wikipedia.
