Welcome![edit]
Hello, Juliapharmer, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, especially your edits to Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/Kent State University/Political Economy (Fall). I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some tips that you might find helpful:
- Link to other articles with [[double square brackets]]
- Here are some articles where you can practice adding links to other articles. When you've got at least two blue links in the article you can remove the code {{Dead end|date=Month year}} from the top of the page.
- Add pictures from Wikimedia Commons using [[double square brackets with|thumb for thumbnail|Left, right or center so it knows where to go|a meaningful caption|alt=a description for blind people]]
- Example [[Image:Chocolate chip cookies.jpg|thumb|right|Wiki biscuits are guaranteed zero calories! ]]
- Click here for an exercise in adding images to articles.
- Now you know how to add pictures to Wikipedia, why not add your own? This shows you articles that are near you. Is there one without a picture or where you could take a better one? In many countries modern buildings are still copyrighted, but not in the UK and some other places. This is the upload page on Wikimedia Commons.
- Add headings with ==double equal signs==
- If an article has sections two editors can edit different sections simultaneously without edit conflicts. Four or more sections and you get a table of contents.
- Here are articles where you can practice adding sections when you've finished splitting an article into sections you can delete {{sections|date=Month year}} from the top of the page.
- ===subheadings are similar===
- When you add information to Wikipedia please summarize things in your own words, and tell us where you got the information from in the following format <ref>[The webpage, book or magazine you are citing, a description, the word "retrieved" and today's date]</ref>
- If you find unreferenced information on Wikipedia that you consider dubious or unlikely, first try to reference it yourself. If you know it is wrong, correct it, if you can't find a source then {{fact}} adds the famous [citation needed]. If, after a week no-one has referenced the information, feel free to remove it.
- ''Double single quotes'' gives you Italic and '''triple quotes''' Bold.
Many Wikipedians organise themselves by subject area, we have hundreds of WikiProjects ranging from Arts to Zoology, and I'm sure there will be ones that fit your interests. A good place to look for them is Category:WikiProjects by topic, alternatively the talkpages of articles you are interested in may have links to relevant Wikiprojects.

Review of published content for political economy[edit]
Great job with your article. Everything you added to enhanced the article overall. I can really tell you went into the facts and pulled things out to help the wiki article. I enjoyed your statements citing the U.S census. I also like how almost anything you add is using numbers and stats. This shows you are just stating what is present and have no bias in your writing. The only thing that might be considered to have bias would be when you said “Cleveland demographics on the levels of education tend to be on the lower side”. This is not quite biased but when you say on the lower side, what is that in comparison to. I would just state the percentage and not give it a comparative statement unless you compare it to another education statistic. The other thing I would change is the way the census titles are bolded in the demographics section. It seems off and does not match the format from the rest of the article. The info in these sections is good, just make them headings instead of bolded titles in a section. You could also match the bolding at the beginning of the article so that it has the same formatting as yours. These are really nitpicky things and other than those things I can't find anything that is wrong or bias in your article. The only thing I could think of to add is perhaps a zoning map of the east Cleveland area in the households section. I think that could really improve the reader's understanding of your article. Overall though great work! Heres and site that gives some maps! http://www.eastcleveland.org/departments/building-housing/maps/
