Welcome![edit]

Hello, Thousand9, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam 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.

My takeaway participating in WikiEdu Soc 3156/SheridanFord is learning about sociological imagination and studying about racism. Throughout this class, I felt that racism is the most recurring and prevailing theme of inequality. My sociological imagination has both evolved and improved because this course pushed me to examine, question, and to think about inequality at a macro and micro standpoint and to look at the bigger and the smaller scale in society.

Watch your paraphrasing of verifiable content in published articles.[edit]

Hi @Thousand9, it's your instructor from WikiEdu --sheridanford (talk) 21:53, 30 January 2017 (UTC) I was reviewing your significant edit to "Prison" and was startled by your edit here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Prison&oldid=760706937 You mischaracterized the actual content of the article you cited <https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/criminals-need-mental-health-care/>. So, I reverted your edit manually and made a more accurate edit in the healthcare section you might want to read. The revert won't show on your WP dashboard but this is one of those make a mistake and learn from it moments.[reply]
