*UNI Edits continues to gain popularity and impact - keep up the good work! [[Special:Contributions/134.161.250.110|134.161.250.110]] 17:37, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

*these are amazing! [[Special:Contributions/134.161.249.254|134.161.249.254]] 21:01, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

*Students would be hard pressed to find another opportunity to practice research skills; learn a great deal of information; impact the information space in a positive, meaningful way; all way meeting new people and having a lot of fun.

-My students have consistently reflected that they had no idea Wikipedia was such an important resource AND that they are able to provide REAL research to a worldwide public so easily. For example: [http://radicalteacher.library.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/radicalteacher/article/view/517 "Democratizing Knowledge: Using Wikipedia for Inclusive Teaching and Research in Four Undergraduate Classes"]

*This is a great way to encourage community on a university campus. [[Special:Contributions/134.161.29.221|134.161.29.221]] 18:11, 27 August 2019 (UTC)

*This is a vital program to bolster students' information literacy skills. Without this program, I would not have known the complexity of Wikipedia or contributed 200+ edits.

*This is necessary intellectual work with an important educational component. [[User:Jim.oloughlin|Jim.oloughlin]] ([[User talk:Jim.oloughlin|talk]]) 19:51, 11 September 2019 (UTC)
