Hello, RLSenter, 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.

Hello. I am just introducing myself as I learn to navigate Wikipedia. Have a great evening. - Leighton Dumas Wilander2244 (talk) 22:08, 20 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

WN Bibliography Entries

edit

Stern — You write well. Avoid editorializing — "this is particularly interesting" — and just be factual. In fact, you might eliminate all adverbs — "surprisingly". Try to be a bit more specific about the article's relevance to WN. Be sure you italicize all book titles.

Tanner — Again, all book titles must be italicized. Sounds like an informative article; focus on WN in your summaries, perhaps giving a bit more information. Generally well done. I'm looking forward to your additions to the main WN article. —Grlucas (talk) 12:14, 8 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

WN Addition

edit

Good work. The information you added has improved the overall article, and that's the idea. However, be careful in composing your references. Be sure you have all the necessary information (you missed the year) and that you actually put your source in the bibliography (I did this for you). You'll get all that as you continue to edit. Again, well done. —Grlucas (talk) 12:51, 14 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Just a quick note, have a look at WP:MOS. The punctuation that normally goes inside quotations marks, like the comma and period, actually go outside on Wikipedia. (I know, it annoyed me at first, too.) —Grlucas (talk) 23:00, 4 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

AAD Bib Entry

edit

Good work here. You have something for Tanner's work. Be sure to include specific page numbers (see my example entry) so making use of your post will help edit the article. —Grlucas (talk) 12:01, 19 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

OK, well done. Go ahead and add something to the AAD article now. —Grlucas (talk) 20:17, 19 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

AAD Edit

edit

Good addition, but are you sure it's in the best spot? I think you could add more, too. What about McKinley? —Grlucas (talk) 15:38, 2 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

WWVN Edit

edit

Nice work on Glenn. The Village Voice should be italicized; verbs should be in the present tense; and after introducing the critic, using just his last name will suffice. The second sentence is a bit awkward, too: "highly favorable"?

The Kaufmann addition is good, but a bit sparse. —Grlucas (talk) 22:36, 5 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
