you took action. what did you do when you heard? | U | 5 | 4 | 4.6 | 1374 | Male |
well, i initially sat with the information. i've done a lot of learning and listening regarding the residential school system over the past several years, so- | N | 2.8 | 3.4 | 3.4 | 1374 | Male |
... so unfortunately, my first reaction wasn't one of surprise. | X | 2.8 | 2.8 | 3.2 | 1374 | Male |
but shortly after that i thought to myself, i should check the wikipedia page because when news like this breaks, regardless of the nature of the story- | F | 2.8 | 3 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
... most people are inclined to check the internet and see what they can learn about something- | N | 3.2 | 3.2 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
... and wikipedia is no different | N | 3 | 3.6 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
so i visited the page for the kamloops indian residential schools. | N | 3.8 | 4.4 | 3.6 | 1374 | Male |
i was happy to note that there was a page already in existence,- | H | 2.8 | 4 | 3.6 | 1374 | Male |
... but, unfortunately, it was rather brief. | S | 2.8 | 2.8 | 3.4 | 1374 | Male |
why did you care that there'd be a page with info on it? | O | 4.2 | 3 | 5 | 1374 | Male |
i've been editing wikipedia for about 10 years on and off,- | H | 4.4 | 5.2 | 4.6 | 1374 | Male |
... both personally and professionally. and i know from experience that- | H | 3.4 | 4.6 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... regardless of how you personally or professionally feel about wikipedia as a resource,- | N | 4.6 | 4.4 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
... people use it. people tend to refer to it as an entry point into a topic if they need a quick answer to understand what something is. | N | 3.4 | 3.6 | 4.6 | 1374 | Male |
... examples that are cited in wikipedia pages in turn gets- | N | 3.8 | 4 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
so i know from experience that people are visiting these pages. | N | 3 | 3.6 | 3.4 | 1374 | Male |
my first thought is often to check the page and see if there's meaningful and accurate information available there for people to take in. | X | 3 | 3 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
and so there wasn't meaningful information on this page, really. | X | 3.6 | 2.6 | 4.6 | 1374 | Male |
what was available online, both in the truth and reconciliation commission reports- | N | 3.4 | 3.6 | 4.4 | 1374 | Male |
and i started thinking about what type of information would need to be available on the page in order to- | X | 3 | 3.2 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... make it useful for people trying to understand what the school was, but- | X | 2.6 | 3.8 | 3.2 | 1374 | Male |
... that also consisted of looking at whether or not any survivors had spoken about their experience at the school,- | N | 3.8 | 3.6 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... whether or not any indigenous activists or thinkers had written about the particular topic. but- | N | 3.4 | 3.4 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
and then kind of assessing where i could start contributing to the expansion of the page. | X | 3.4 | 4.2 | 3.6 | 1374 | Male |
part of the answer for me is that i've done a lot of learning and listening to indigenous people,- | N | 3.4 | 4.2 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
... thinkers, writers. a few years ago i took a class at renison, implications for settler canadians, with regards to reconciliation. and the instructor, kelly laurila,- | N | 2.8 | 4 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... did a really amazing job of imparting the fact that educating ourselves as settler- | H | 3.6 | 3.4 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... canadians is only one part of the process. | N | 3.8 | 4.2 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
the work really comes with translating what you've learned into action. | N | 3.4 | 3.6 | 3.6 | 1374 | Male |
and so for me, that looks like editing wikipedia. when i think about really overwhelming and daunting topics like the residential school system,- | O | 3.8 | 3.2 | 4.4 | 1374 | Male |
... i think it's common for people to ask what i can do. | N | 3.8 | 4 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
and for me, that answer was taking stock of what i already know how to do, things i- | N | 3.6 | 3.4 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... already know, things i'm comfortable with, and that was editing wikipedia. | H | 4 | 5 | 4.8 | 1374 | Male |
and i used wikipedia as an outlet for sharing and passing on what i've learned. | H | 4 | 3.8 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
... mid thirties before i really realized what it meant to live on native land,- | S | 2.8 | 2.8 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
.. alogonquian territory. i did not know that until years after i had left ottawa. | S | 4.4 | 3 | 4.6 | 1374 | Male |
i really did not understand the depth and structural nature of the racism and colonialism that exists in our country. | S | 3.2 | 2.6 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
i am the descendant of settler canadians on both sides of my family. | N | 4.2 | 4 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
i come from people who came to canada to settle and to colonize- | N | 3.6 | 4 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... without any reason to have it other than just how i look or how i sound. | X | 3.4 | 3 | 4.4 | 1374 | Male |
and so the course at renison really helped me put some of the bigger puzzle pieces together in terms of understanding that it's possible to carry a lot of feelings- | N | 4.4 | 3.6 | 4.4 | 1374 | Male |
... at once. it's possible to be proud of where you come from- | N | 3 | 3.2 | 3 | 1374 | Male |
... but also really sad and devastated by- | S | 3.2 | 1.8 | 3 | 1374 | Male |
... some really heavy truths. and i hope- | S | 4.2 | 3.6 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... that finding ways to put what i've learned into action can inspire and encourage other people to think about the skills they already have and how they can be- | H | 4.2 | 5 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
yeah, i know. it's sort of like one of the nerdiest things about me. | H | 3.4 | 4.2 | 3 | 1374 | Male |
i'm really fortunate working in the archives and also in the library to have access to a wealth of information- | X | 3.4 | 5 | 4.6 | 1374 | Male |
... to make personal connections between archival records and people's everyday lives. | N | 4 | 4 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
i started with editing the kamloops page by thinking critically about the current state of the page and where it needed to be. | X | 3.8 | 5 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
from there, i did a search to determine what was available. and for me, when i'm working on pages related to the residential school system,- | N | 3.2 | 3.8 | 3.4 | 1374 | Male |
... i always start with the outputs of the truth and reconciliation commission of canada. | N | 3 | 3.6 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
they have a series of very readable and accessible reports that do an incredible job of pulling together a lot of historical information. | N | 4.4 | 5.4 | 4.8 | 1374 | Male |
it's very much like writing a term paper or writing a biographical summary,- | H | 3.4 | 4.6 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
... which is where i pull on my archival training to do this type of work. | N | 3.6 | 4.6 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
a lot of what we do in the archives is looking at a wealth of information and- | X | 3.2 | 4 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
... coming up with a digestible summary. | N | 2.8 | 3.6 | 3.2 | 1374 | Male |
and when you think about wikipedia or the purpose of an encyclopedia, that's- | O | 4.4 | 3.6 | 4.8 | 1374 | Male |
... something digestible that hits all of the key points. | S | 3.2 | 3.2 | 3.4 | 1374 | Male |
[inaudible 00:07:17] it's creating one for the first time or contributing to something that already exists- | N | 2.8 | 3.6 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... isn't currently answering for me. and i go about trying to answer those questions. | X | 3.4 | 4.8 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
one of the issues that people have with wikipedia is that sometimes it's not terribly reliable and- | O | 4.2 | 2.6 | 4.4 | 1374 | Male |
... that's because anybody can edit a page, pretty much, on wikipedia. | X | 3.6 | 4 | 3.6 | 1374 | Male |
no, i'm actually really happy to report that there were a lot of different editors working on the page- | U | 4 | 4.4 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
... and i completely confirm and agree that there are problems with people editing the page- | S | 3.2 | 3.2 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
... you will. however, the vast majority of edits that happen on wikipedia are in good faith. | N | 3.4 | 4.4 | 4.4 | 1374 | Male |
there are mechanisms in place to ensure that anybody who's editing for vandalism purposes- | O | 3.8 | 4 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
... quickly. and, ultimately, when multiple people are working on a page- | N | 3.2 | 3.6 | 3.4 | 1374 | Male |
... so, for example, i might focus on historical overviews because that's- | X | 3.4 | 3.8 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... my particular area of interest professionally, as an [inaudible 00:08:21]. | H | 3.8 | 4.8 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
wikipedia also really encourages consensus and discussions, so- | X | 3.8 | 4.6 | 4.6 | 1374 | Male |
... every wikipedia page has a talk page and- | N | 3.8 | 4 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
... that's where editors can go in and have back and forth about what they think should be happening on the page. | C | 3 | 3.6 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
and in turn, i make changes to other people's work that maybe they disagree with.that's the nature- | H | 4.2 | 4.8 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
... of wikipedia is that it's open to everybody and we're theoretically all working towards the same goal. | H | 4.2 | 5 | 4.4 | 1374 | Male |
it's inevitable that there are going to be more of these sad discoveries. | S | 3.4 | 2.4 | 4.2 | 1374 | Male |
in fact, the cowessess first nation of saskatchewan announced recently that they found 751 unmarked graves on reserve land. | N | 3.4 | 3 | 4.4 | 1374 | Male |
i think they're doing a great job. and i didn't immediately see how i could contribute- | H | 2.2 | 3.8 | 3.8 | 1374 | Male |
... so i've been focusing in on some of the smaller schools that are also conducting searches. | N | 3.6 | 4.4 | 4 | 1374 | Male |
i've been creating pages for schools that- | N | 2.8 | 4.4 | 3.4 | 1374 | Male |
... there is still a wealth of information about them. and part of that is that i- | N | 3.2 | 3.8 | 3.2 | 1373 | Female |
... so i've worked on pages recently related to the birtle industrial residential school- | N | 3.6 | 4.2 | 3.6 | 1373 | Female |
... the st. boniface school. i was working on one this morning for the shubenacadie residential school,- | N | 3.6 | 3.4 | 4 | 1373 | Female |
... which was the only school that operated in the maritime. | U | 2.4 | 4.2 | 3.6 | 1373 | Female |
so the nice thing about editing wikipedia is that there's no right or wrong way to do it. | H | 3.4 | 4 | 3.4 | 1382 | Male |
you can do that if you have half an hour and you want to draft a new section of a page. | N | 3.4 | 3.4 | 4 | 1382 | Male |
so i'm basically right now just trying to dedicate any of my editing energy to residential related schools- | O | 3.2 | 4.6 | 4.6 | 1382 | Male |
... because this topic isn't going away. | S | 3.4 | 2.6 | 4 | 1382 | Male |
and if the number of graves that have been found to date continue to play out at other school locations- | N | 3.6 | 4 | 4 | 1382 | Male |
