Redone the History Section

The previous history section was plagiarized and violated copyrights. It copied and pasted an entire article by author Mark Gordon with only one citation for the entire section and no direct quotes. The revised history section is organized with subsections, has reliable sources, and different unbiased information supported with citations. I added the key time period of cocacolonization, during World War II and during the Cold War. The section was very carefully researched and written with the five pillars of Wikipedia in mind.

Deleting Unrelated Sections

The Cold War and After the Cold War sections were repetitive to the in-depth information in the history section. The information had little citations and the sources that were cited were unreliable. The Marketing Significance section was also unrelated to cocacolonization and did not add to expanding knowledge on the term. The citations were unreliable in this section as well. By deleting them all, the article better meets the five pillars of Wikipedia, better explains cocacolonization, and has more reliable sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atmicalizzi5 (talkcontribs) 01:49, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

New Significance Section

I added a significance section to highlight different aspects of the word cocacolonization. It took on a new definition: the expansion of unhealthy American foods overseas. In medical journals, the term is used often. Also, cocacolonization is worldwide and there is a little subsection about how widespread the soda became. The section is cited and descriptive. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atmicalizzi5 (talkcontribs) 02:00, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

Pictures and another Reading

I added 2 more pictures to better illustrate cocacolonization around the world and show the vending machines used in World War II. I also added a related reading to the further reading section that people interested in cocacolonization can check out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atmicalizzi5 (talkcontribs) 02:11, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
