Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~)
at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}}
on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.Draft article at User:Lumeigpo/sandbox/Ignacio Barsottelli
editHello, Lumeigpo. I wanted to let you know that I have made some edits to User:Lumeigpo/sandbox/Ignacio Barsottelli, since you asked for help at the Teahouse. Specifically, I removed some peacock terms and promotional language. I hope it's clear to you how the new phrasing is more neutral, simply reporting facts about Barsottelli and his organizations without praising them.
I also made some formatting changes. One to note is that in reference citations, authors are listed as Lastname, Firstname
rather than Firstname Lastname
. Another is that when a reference's title is given in ALL CAPS, it is generally preferred to change it to Title Case in the citation.
There are now a number of messages like [citation needed] in the article to guide you in what further changes are needed. The YLA website is marked as an unreliable source because it is a primary source — as much as possible of the information in a Wikipedia article should be cited to references that are secondary sources like books or newspaper articles.
I also left you a couple of notes that will only show up when you are editing the page; they are enclosed in HTML comments like so: <!--This is an example of an HTML comment.-->
Note that I only edited up through the section Activism and career: Early years. I may come back and help edit more of the article if I can find the time, but you should try to address the issues I have raised in the whole of the article, not just the sections I edited directly. Thank you for joining Wikipedia, and good luck with your first article. Feel free to ask for further assistance at the Teahouse. —GrammarFascist contribstalk 08:53, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
