Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Notes[edit]

Hi! I wanted to drop you a quick note. So far your draft looks good. My main thing to mention would be to use caution when making blanket statements and make sure that the source is the best possible source for this. With blanket statements it's definitely a good idea to attribute it to the source along the lines of "According to So-and-So" or "In a 2014 article in the Washington Post So-and-so stated that". This lets people know who made the claim, which is especially good when you're dealing with any topic that's even remotely controversial and as such, may have other challenging a general/blanket claim. Good work so far! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:18, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Shalor! We will definitely keep this in mind! Estech01 (talk) 19:44, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
