Community WME Quizzes

Post by vince1612
Hello everyone! :)

With the help of the WME Beta Pirates I've started the creation of Community WME Quizzes.

The idea is to provide a fun way to learn for editors, your username isn't required to take the quiz, you can just take it anonymously. At the end you will be able to see which answers were correct/wrong and why with links to the relevant Wazeopedia articles to help you learn more.

Because this is for everyone and as not to include or contradict local wikis content, the questions will only focus on what is available in the Global Wazeopedia section and which should be true and relevant for all communities.

Here is the very first quiz!

WME Quiz 101 - Editors' jargon
It's a short quiz about the most common abbreviations used by editors (MP, UR, WME...), things that a new editor would typically not understand if we used them in future quizzes. This should teach them the basics and let them know about where to find the Glossary to check the meaning of other ones.

I hope you'll enjoy ;)


[UPDATED LIST OF QUIZZES]

SO many abbreviations and it's a bit overwhelming when you're new. Thanks. Enjoyable quiz!

Very cool idea. If I may suggest, in the 2nd quiz, the question "Who can handle Place Update Requests" is a bit ambiguous. If 'handle' means 'close' then the set answer is accurate. If 'handle' means 'work on but not necessarily close' then the set answer is inaccurate.
