Welcome! edit

Hello, Anantvis, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian 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. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 12:59, 11 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Feedback edit

Hi. Can you give me some more information on what you're trying to do? I'm guessing that your draft is in this section: User:Anantvis/sandbox#Modified_Article_Section_(_To_be_)? Is the part in bold at the end just a note to yourself?

I can't say whether a source would be appropriate unless I know which source and which statement. Without them, I don't know enough to answer your question. Could you do that and leave me a note on my talk page when you're ready? Thanks. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:10, 12 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

OK, it looks good overall. The Associated Press is a reputable newswire service, so I think it's a perfectly acceptable source, although better sources probably exist (it's always worth trying to track down scholarly sources). Beyond that, I'd say you should copyedit your work - for example, there shouldn't be spaces before periods, and you use "it's" in one place where you should use "its".
You should also add links to other Wikipedia articles. Topics and terms that are likely to be unfamiliar to the average reader should be linked the first time they appear in the article. For example, there's an article about the Marine Mammal Protection Act. Link to it. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:44, 17 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

You have an overdue training assignment. edit
