About WikiRandy (aka Randy Fisher), MA, OMD

Currently, I am consulting with the Intersol Group in Ottawa, Canada on virtual Collaborative Engagement for Teams. I also consult to the International Centre for Open Education / OER Foundation, in New Zealand.

I have 15+ years of experience in stakeholder engagement, project management, coordination and implementation and coaching. I also have expertise in OD / Change Management, E-Learning & HR/Performance Improvement, Marketing and Communications. In particular, I am an expert in Building Sustainable Projects, Communities and Networks with Web 2.0 social networking, MediaWiki and collaboration tools (blogs, wikis, Skype, discussion groups, etc.). I have an MA in Organization Management and Development, Fielding Graduate University, California. My thesis: Primal Needs Gone Digital: Educators' Motivations in an Open Wiki Environment, 2009.

I am an elected member of the WikiEducator.org Community Council, the governing body of the largest formal education wiki in the world (12,000+ users in 120 countries). I am also an advisor to Amarok Society, which educates poor mothers and children in Bangladesh.

Attribution

When someone uses some work that I've created, I'd like to be notified about it on my User Talk/Discussion Page. I would also like that you attribute it to Randy Fisher, in a place of prominence equivalent to how prominent it features in your work! Thanks... Note from Wayne

I would suggest using the licence statement on the home page, with a note that all sub pages are licensed accordingly. Then a discrete footer template on each page. The Creative Commons site will have have wording and display options. One of our technical and policy tasks is to sort out license policy and technical adaptations to make this easier to manage and attribute the license.

Presentations

Learning MediaWiki Skills

  • Suspend your judgment – about where you think / feel you should be in terms of mastering this stuff.
  • Refresh your screen when you visit a page – to make sure that you have the latest version
  • Observe and reflect on changes you see in the wiki – (i.e., when I go in and make a change, look at the code ~ i.e., what I’ve done….)
  • Do not ignore the great Resources in this community: tutorials and people.


Templates

Simple Table Syntax

WE is running a simple table extension (formerly called tabbeddata) that makes it "simpler" to add data to a table.

To make a table that uses commas for separating columns and <return> for the rows, try:

Hi Hello Yes
Bye Good Night No

Please find information on the syntax and examples
