Welcome!

Hello, Jaunarra, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:16, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

Notes

Hi! I have some notes for you and the group:

• I added an infobox and a brief lead section to your draft.
• The citations need to be made in-line, to show what source is backing up which claim. It looks like one of you added an in-line citation - they should be formatted like this.
• Make sure that you are only summarizing what is explicitly stated in the source material, as it's important to avoid original research. We cannot make our own conclusions and associations when it comes to articles. This is probably one of the largest differences between Wikipedia and other forms of writing, so it can be a little odd to get used to at first.

If you're citing something from a source, make sure that you attribute it to the person making the claim, along the lines of something like "So and So states".

I think you're doing well so far, so a lot of this is just being careful to stick to the way that Wikipedia writes and sources its articles. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:03, 15 October 2019 (UTC)
