Welcome!

Hello, Andrewcharlesbsu, 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.

Hello,

I moved a page your wrote to User talk:Andrewcharlesbsu/Social Construction of Gender, as you had put in in as a category, which is not what it was, but it looked more like a note-to-self. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 03:02, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Drafts

FYI a category such as Category:Wikipedia Contribution DRAFT is not the place to develop draft articles - I've moved the text there to your sandbox (and tweaked a bit of the styling). 149.254.234.173 (talk) 23:16, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Social construction of gender

Hello, and welcome. Thanks for your edit to Social construction of gender. It has a bunch of problems, but I think they are fixable, so I didn't remove your edit. Here are some of the chief points that need attention:

reads like an essay; Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, it's not like writing stuff for school; just find what reliable sources say about the content you want to add, and distill it into your own words
referencing style - thanks for adding Berkowitz comments here and there. But check out the rest of the article, for how the citations are done there, and then imitate them. See also Help:Footnotes.
wikilinks - read up on linking to other wikipedia articles, and add some links if and where appropriate. (You can even add red links to articles which ought to be here, but aren't.)

There are other issues, but taking care of these three will improve your entry, so please start with those. When you are done, you can {{ping}} me (like this: {{ping|Mathglot}}) and I'll have a look if you want, or ask your Wiki Ed contact, Shalor. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 10:53, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
