problem mounting

The other day I resized a sda6 data. It was right next to sda 8 in
gparted so I shrunk sda8 and then expanded sda6. Everything worked
fine for several days but now I can not mount sda8 (upon which is
installed a copy of Mint).
sudo blkid
/dev/sda1: UUID="710733b8-8d16-482a-a633-b3fe276fa804" TYPE="ext3"
/dev/sda5: UUID="52f69d2b-db0b-485f-8c1f-85b633cea624" TYPE="swap"
/dev/sda6: LABEL="Data" UUID="d83e984c-2e40-4327-b958-13f4b3592907" TYPE="ext3"
/dev/sda7: UUID="1b541f32-d330-4356-8e6e-b042ad1c5665" TYPE="swap"
/dev/sda8: LABEL="side 2" UUID="0436101a-bd71-471e-ba13-241a8b0ec7de"
TYPE="ext4"
/dev/sdb1: SEC_TYPE="msdos" UUID="448A-715B" TYPE="vfat"
fstab does not show an entry for sda 8
# swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=52f69d2b-db0b-485f-8c1f-85b633cea624 none swap sw

# swap was on /dev/sda7 during installation

#dev/sda6
UUID=d83e984c-2e40-4327-b958-13f4b3592907 /media/data ext3 relatime,noexec 0
I think I just need to add UUID="0436101a-bd71-471e-ba13-241a8b0ec7de
but I need to add a mount point? And what else? Gparted shows no
mount point.
The error message I get when I try to open side 2 with nautilus
Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda8,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
I have read a dozen or so entries about this error and can not figure
out quite how to apply what I have read, all seem to involve different
circumstances.
Thanks for any help!

I know I need to go to linux school. I think that would be fun! Not
sure my geezer brain is quite up to it though.
