Paragraph: This helps you set the style of the text. For example, a header, or plain paragraph text. You can also use it to offset block quotes.
A : Highlight your text, then click here to format it with bold, italics, etc. The "More" options allows you to underline, add code snippets, and change language keyboards.
Links: The chain button allows you to link your text. Highlight the word, and push the button. VisualEditor will automatically suggest related Wikipedia articles for that word or phrase. This is a great way to connect your article to more Wikipedia content. You only have to link important words once, usually during the first time they appear. If you want to link to pages outside of Wikipedia (for an "external links" section, for example) click on the "External link" tab.
Cite: The citation tool in VisualEditor helps format your citations. You can simply paste a DOI or URL, and the VisualEditor will try to sort out all of the fields you need. Be sure to review it, however, and apply missing fields manually (if you know them). You can also add books, journals, news, and websites manually. That opens up a quick guide for inputting your citations. Finally, you can click the "re-use" tab if you've already added a source and just want to cite it again.
Bullets: To add bullet points or a numbered list, click here.
Insert: This tab lets you add media, images, or tables.
Ω The final tab allows you to add special characters, such as those found in non-English words, scientific notation, and a handful of language extensions.
Peer Review
editHey Kara I read through your article and I found that you had a lot of really good information throughout your paragraphs and it looked like you cited your sources correctly
One thing you need to make sure to do is add a little more information to your article, it's a little short right now so you might want to add a little more information. One thing you could mention since your doing where they're found is maybe how they are being pushed out of many of their habitats, you could even refer more specifically to areas where they're protected and things like that.
you were very unbiased which is awesome
your grammar was solid for the most part, if anything you might want to change up your sentence structure up a little bit. Right now you have a lot of lists which can make something like this difficult to read, if you elaborated a little more on some of the specific parts in your lists, like maybe add why these turtles inhabit countries more than others. if you do this I think you'll find you have a much more in depth paragraph
Overall I found that you were off to a very good start, all of your stuff looked properly cited and you paraphrased the information well also. You have a lot of good information which I think can be exspanded upon as well.
feel free to message me if you have any questions
