Hello, AustinJames, 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.

After reviewing the wiki page "Theory X and Theory Y" I think there are many updates and additions that can be made to create a higher quality page. Below are the changes I think can be made.

- I think the introduction could be more precise. Specifically when talking about what each theory is based on.

- Under the Theory X tab - I don't like how the writer uses the word generally (we could flesh this out).

- I think having an example of a real world situation that each one of the theory's applies to would be nice to have, especially for the novice reader (this could be it's own section).

- I think the section "evaluate the workplace" could go into more detail - more about contingency theory. It does not say much or use any examples.

- I think there is room for improvement in the "McGregor and Maslow's Hierarchy of need relationship" section.

- One thing that has been brought up previously and one thing I agree with fully is the lack of sources. I think we can bring this pages rating up by finding reliable sources and adding accurate information.
