Welcome![edit]

Hello, Kleisy, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian 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.

Your article[edit]

Hi. I moved your article back to your sandbox because it wasn't ready to move live yet. It's now at User:Kleisy/sandbox.

I've linked to the handout on writing about books. It will be helpful in improving your draft. For example, an article about a book should include several of the following

  • A lead section that summarizes all the major points in an article (this is required)
  • Background
  • Summary (which you have)
  • Genre
  • Analysis
  • Publication
  • Reception

It also needs to be based primarily on secondary sources. You can use the book itself as a source for a summary of its contents, but you need additional sources for the rest of the article. You need those sources to demonstrate that the book is notable, that it's worth writing a Wikipedia article about.

Let me know if you have additional questions. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:47, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
