Welcome
editHello, Bezzza and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students.
If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.
Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.
Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.
We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 01:59, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Fermiboson (talk) 05:30, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
Draft:Regina Gwynn
editHi @Bezzza, Thanks for creating the draft on Regina Gwynn. As you can see the work was moved to what's called the draftspace for it to be improved on. Currently the text has no inline citations, which makes it difficult for readers to verify factual statements in your article. Every statement should be followed by a supporting citation; if a group of sentences are all supported by the same source, you can place a single reference after all of them, but you need to have at least one reference per paragraph, and you shouldn't have any statements after the final reference in a paragraph. If you need a refresher on how to add citations, please consult this training module.
Also check out the criteria for reliable sources on Wikipedia. Currently the majority of your sources aren't considered reliable sources, and cannot go towards meeting the notability requirement. Remember you want to find sources that have a reputation for fact-checking, and that independent of the topic.
Here are a couple that you can use:
- https://thegrio.com/2022/05/15/stiffed-by-investors-ignored-by-recruiters-these-black-people-in-tech-create-support-for-themselves-and-others/
- https://lasentinel.net/womens-history-month-black-women-in-tech.html
I suggest finding an additional 2-3 reliable sources. Let me know if you have any questions. Brianda (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:30, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
