I visited the Agriculture article on Wikipedia and found three aspects worth commenting on, which are the citations in the article, the lack of several necessary sections, and the irrelevant sentence. I've noticed that many of Wikipedia's pages about Agriculture try to capture a global sense of how agriculture is used and how it impacts many of us. This page does mention some people that used agriculture like the Mesopotamians and Egyptians. That said, I know that agriculture has been used for thousands of years as mentioned on the page. I know this because it mentions how the ‘’Mesopotamians, wild teosinte, was bred into maize more than thousands of years ago’’. Scholars have offered multiple hypotheses to explain the historical origins of agriculture. This page also gave how many people around the world used agriculture and growing crops. An example in the page mentioned that the ‘’Sumerians started to live in villages from about 8,000 BC, relying on the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and a canal system for irrigation’’. Farmers grew wheat, barley, vegetables such as lentils and onions, and fruits including dates, grapes, and figs. ‘’The Egyptians used the Nile river for their resources to rely on grains such as wheat and barley.’’ The article could use an overhaul here, with more citations and reliable sources used in the article. If there are other sources beyond these, perhaps then an "external links' ' section could include some of these would be better for understanding. I remember learning about agriculture when I used to go to school in Iraq. My school used to be 5 minutes away from the Tigris and Europartes river looking out the window and the teacher told us how important this river is and it is. Overall, I'd rate this page as "okay."The information provided was good.

My Wikipedia activities

I use Wikipedia for definitions of words I am stuck on it benefits me a lot since English isn't my first language it helps me improve. It also inspires me to get some ideas for my projects, especially science I often struggle with that subject, it really helps a lot with improving my writing skills. I love reading books when I was little and learning about animals and wildlife. I love watching animals videos on National Geographic. If I end up working on content here over the long term, some sorts of things I will do are want to explore and learn more about Wikipedia and how it became this big that so many people use it every day.
