We just added our first @localwiki entry for the Emeryville page which is a brief history behind Landregan Street which was renamed Horton in the early 2000s. The page is open for any amateur historian to edit and add their own entries. localwiki.org/emeryville/Lan…

Yknow what's been a blessing while working on the WIPs set in a fantasy version of my home town? LocalWiki. Whoever put all those pages on there is committed. Even if I heavily side eye some of the things it says, it's overall a great resource #writing #worldbuilding

This is why I have developed assignments focused on @localwiki and Wikipedia. See @WikiEducation for some great project examples. wikiedu.org/ nitter.gq/pfeltenNC/status/94067…
Provocative framework: renewable vs disposable assignments. With disposable assignments, students throw away their work after it's graded. With renewable, the student work persists because it has value to someone beyond the class. nitter.gq/susmcgowan/status/9406…
