Hello, Maxsiskind, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam 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.

Draft additions

edit

Hi Maxsiskind. I've just got two minor comments on your draft additions to Catalina de Erauso:

  • Phrases like "recently" don't work as well on Wikipedia as you might expect, since the content of the article is expected to be constantly up to date. So any mention to relative dates or comparison to the present will eventually need to be updated where "since 1980" will be as true in 2040 as it is now.
  • Try to find some terms to link in your draft. I've added two, you may only need to add a few more.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you need a hand with anything. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:49, 14 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Peer Review

Hey, Max, this is Charlotte. I think what you have in your sandbox is really strong and well-written. I didn't see any glaring grammatical errors or anything. You might want to add more links to other Wikipedia articles, but other than that, I don't have much feedback to give. I don't know how long your article is, but just make sure it's meeting the minimum requirement (which I think was 700 words). Cmartlover (talk) 21:34, 26 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Max you have a well written piece. I do have two concerns though. The first paragraph of your piece is going to end a section already written or is it a sub section by itself? My other concern is that you cite one case or argument but has anyone responded to these claims? Usually when someone writes a piece like that there is a response from someone who is also researching that same person. If there is no such info then you can't put it other than that good work.

Hey Max I like what you've written. I notice you mention someone who says that there has been an effort to delesbianize her. I think it would be good for you to mention what efforts exactly those were as reading the book it only talks about her seducing women and never men like you mention earlier.
