editHello, MTTorres, 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.

A kitten for you!
editGreat start, Molly. This is definitely a good article to consider for the course project.

editHello, I'm GorillaWarfare. I noticed that in this edit to Pubic hair, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. GorillaWarfare (talk) 19:24, 7 April 2018 (UTC)
Hi MTTorres! I saw your edit to Media and gender, and thanks for paying attention to that page. However, I'm concerned that your edit removed a ton of content from the original (30,685 bytes, according to the diff), some of it well-cited and relevant to the topic. I would definitely encourage you to re-add your changes, but perhaps try to do it a bit more gradually and without removing useful content -- keeping in mind of course that if something is not germane to the topic it's appropriate to remove it. Your content is preserved in the article history here if you need.
A couple other things: we try to structure articles here sort of like traditional encyclopedia articles, and starting a page with "This page explores the relationship between today's growing media and its relationship to western concepts of gender..." is not really the tone we're going for. Also, this article should ideally be global in focus—it might make sense to split out an article on Western media and gender, but if you do that it should be identified as such by the article title.
