General Editing

  • Creates heading by copying the heading from other parts of the article
  • Refers to NTOC as subtitles and modules
  • NTOC makes sense
  • Adds external link using dialog without any issues
  • Chooses the next step as "publish" instead of "preview"
  • Not sure what "minor edit" means
  • Constant uses publish instead of preview
  • Uses preview below the editor instead of the preview tab
  • Finds interface much simpler than expected

Discussion

  • Expects discussion board and comments from various contributors in "Discussion"
  • Goes silent looking at two huge templates
  • Tries again for the Washington DC article

Template Interaction

  • Goes to a table instead of the infobox capsule
  • After guided to the capsule, opens it up using the link, and successfully edits the population
