Hi from Dr. V
editHi, Heather! We will have to work hard to find you a good article to edit. What can you find that interests you from a global perspective that is not psychology? Psychology has a strict standard for editing that is better to avoid! We can talk more in class. Prof.Vandegrift (talk) 04:31, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
Project Idea
editI like the general idea of the laws and youth, it sounds interesting. But would you be able to get enough research for how that affects youth on a sociological way?
Your proposal
editHi, HR-
I think you have a good idea to consider a new article. This will be an intensive task. Can you start right away to be thinking about an outline? What about using the structure of the Labor rights or Unfree labour but building it around the issue of child labor laws?
How will you connect this with the Child labour page?
I do not yet have a sense of sources you have found on the topic. I look forward to reading the bibliography. I think one good edited volume or encyclopedia article written on the topic would be a great help. Also, check out the International Labor Organization's website, and a new article by Jessica Taft. As you post sources, please write a bit about what each source says and how it contributes to your potential revisions. What do you have, and what are you still looking for? Ideally, you could also inform a reader how the sources you end up with will shape the revision plans you mention in your proposal.
It's time to get to work - this has great potential! Prof.Vandegrift (talk) 04:26, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
Sources feedback
editYou have chosen sources that look like they have high potential to provide you with valuable information. The CATO institute source will help you present a NPOV. Do any of these sources have a historical component, which you say in your proposal you will discuss? Please fix the typos and formatting problems in your sources. Kayla can help you with this if you need it. Prof.Vandegrift (talk) 17:36, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
