Wikipedia and Progress on the issue(freeCodeCamp)

Investigating Wikipedia’s pages

To be honest, I have not looked at Wikipedia very often because I am not familiar with either English or Western culture. However, I have found some errors about Korean culture on Wikipedia. I just haven’t thought about editing them, but I used to think it would be nice if someone did or perhaps it would be okay just to leave them as they are because no one would be interested anyway. I think this is the time to change my mind and try to edit as many errors as I can. (I already did some!🎉 And It was fun than I thoguht! See the contributions)

  • Closed an issue #37637
    • 💬 moT01
      ❝ Yes, translation PR’s are welcome without an issue - Here are the current Korean files - and there’s one open PR for a Korean translation as well. So maybe take a quick look at those.❞
    • 💬 raisedadead
      ❝ Please feel free to create a PR as directed.❞
  • Translating a document in Korean

  • Requested a pull #37707 and it was rejected
    • Corrected a possible typo in basic-javascript/nesting-for-loops.english.md
    • Because it was not a typo😂
    • 💬 RandellDawson
      ❝ It can be either waypoint or way point, but typically is seen as waypoint, so I think we can close this PR. Thanks for checking though. On a side note: It is highly recommended not to create PRs from your master branch. You want it to remain “clean” and only update it via the upstream master branch. You always should create a new branch from your locally synced master branch, push your changes to your fork and then create the pull request from the branch you pushed to your fork.❞   —

In the future

  • Going to submit a pull request once finished the translation

   

In-class Activities

We read two presentations in the class this monday - Open Encyclopedias and Unix Tutorial, Part 1: Basics and Commands. It was good to have time to know what is the wikidepia and unix basic commands and helped me to understand them better.
