Hello, Kimberlyguzman23, 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.

Notes

Hi! I have some notes for you:

  • Wikipedia doesn't indent paragraphs, so this is why the first paragraph looked like it did.
  • This reads too much like a reflective piece on the topic. You want to avoid having a conversational or too casual tone. You also don't want to use phrases like 'insanely' or anything that could be seen as slang or a point of view term, as these can be subjective to the reader or may be seen as too casual or even difficult for some readers to understand.
  • Another issue is that not all of the topics you have under the interpersonal relationships (IR) banner really pertain to IR, at least in the traditional sense. Marketing and law enforcement are also already covered in the social media article in other sections, here and here. The existing section on IR focuses on the relationships between one person and another, so information about the relationships or interactions between an entity or organization with specific people would not fit here.
As far as the catfishing goes, there is merit in mentioning this here - however this should be more general. There's no need to mention the television show or film, as these will be in the main article on catfishing. I would instead phrase the content something like this:
Misrepresentation has become an ongoing concern for social media users. Catfishing, where people create false identities to deceive others, has risen in prevalence and some victims of catfishing have reported that they sent their catfish money or other items.
Basically, what you want is a very short overview of what this is and perhaps some information about the sociological or psychological aspect of things.

I hope this helps! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:47, 25 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
