Smithsonian Institution Archives Edit-a-Thon and Meetup!

Who should come? You should. Really.
	She Blinded Me with Science: Smithsonian Women in Science Edit-a-Thon will be held on Friday, March 30, 2012 at the Smithsonian Archives in Washington, D.C. This edit-a-thon will focus on improving and writing Wikipedia content about women from the Smithsonian who contributed to the sciences. It will be followed by a happy hour meetup! We look forward to seeing you there!

...and if you do not live in the Washington, D.C. area, please forgive the intrusion and you can delete this invite! Sarah (talk) 04:47, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia: check out the Teahouse!

Hello! Aoa24, you are invited to the Teahouse, a forum on Wikipedia for new editors to ask questions about editing Wikipedia, and get support from peers and experienced editors. Please join us! Sarah (talk) 17:01, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

edits to your article

I will send you a Word doc with the actual edits but I will say a few words here to complete my homework. I think that you have a lot of good material but you need to unpack it more. Just from what you have you can create/break up the paragraphs into more paragraphs once you get more information. I think you should address the life of a student athlete. You can have a heading for "Life of a student athlete" then address whether you will talk about big time or both big and small and then you can have subheadings for basketball and football since those are the two that you stress.

Hope this was helpful

I hope you are not too stressed out about your assignment now. You're doing great! A kitty makes everything better.
