Welcome![edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, Jbracale, 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]]
  • 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.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this adds your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, visit The Teahouse, ask me on my talk page, or ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome!

Welcome![edit]

Hello, Jbracale, 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.

Draft notes[edit]

Hi! I wanted to weigh in on your draft. So far it looks like you have a good start! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:23, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I also wanted to give some constructive feedback for your draft. I think it is a very good start, but there should probably be more information outside of just the quotes from your sources. A summarization of what you are quoting is probably preferred over the actual quotation unless it is pertinent. This can also help you analyze and write more to meet length requirements.

Hello[edit]

I looked over your report here and it seems you're trying to edit your partner's user page. Instead, make your edits in your own sandbox (click here) to make and save your edits. I think it's some sort of WikiEd project but new users are tripped by this filter to prevent vandalism, until you're confirmed (doing the TWA is a great way to learn and also get confirmed on this project). Good luck and happy editing! :) Feel free to raise any questions on my talk page (click my signature!) --QEDK () 17:11, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Draft[edit]

Hi! I went to review your draft but I wasn't sure which part of the sandbox is your draft or if everything is - let me know which parts are on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:31, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notes[edit]

Hi! Here are my notes:

  • This needed an intro section, so I added the intro from the existing article. Feel free to tweak it as needed.
  • This could use more sourcing, especially secondary independent sourcing if possible.
  • I would change up the section on Jia Gaojian to be about the history of the directors of the CCTB, rather than on one specific director.
  • This could use a general going over for grammar and such.

Hope this helps! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:22, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jbracale/sandbox moved to draftspace[edit]

You must create a true article title for the version that will be visible to general Wikipedia readers. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 21:13, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
