Candidate Articles edit
Income Inequality in the United States
I'd enjoy editing Wikipedia's page for Income Inequality in the United States. This is definitely a "start" article because it is lengthy but many sections require editing in regards to prose, grammar, and organization. Furthermore, this is a concept that interests me and that I know a good deal about. I'm currently taking a course on social and class inequality and therefore have legitimate sources to use while editing. This article has both organization and factual mistakes that I feel I could handle in an editing process.
I'd also like to edit the Economic Discrimination article. I'd consider this to be a stub article because Economic Discrimination is such a deep concept and the article is somewhat short. It has legitimate sources but not many and I feel it could benefit from the use of sources from the news and such. I feel this article is also relevant to our course work. The organization of the article doesn't need much work but the content could probably be expanded.
My third choice for this project is the article for the Library of Congress. Admittedly, I don't know a lot about the topic but I feel I could do the research to make the necessary edits. This is a topic that interests me. It's a start article that could use editing in regards to organization but also content and grammar. There are many discussions on the talk page and I could use those suggestions to make the edits.
Lastly, I'd like to edit the article for my hometown, West Roxbury, MA. I think the article is currently very short and there are facts and information that could be added or updated. It's a very old neighborhood with a lot of history that is not included. The demographics section is very short. There are also some questionable facts, such as Roxbury Latin being the oldest school in the United States. I obviously have a lot of prior knowledge on this topic and would enjoy editing an article that is so near and dear to my heart.
