[edit]

Hello, Calliewright22-HCF22 and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students. Go through our online training for students

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Drmies (talk) 23:06, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please explain what this school project is, and who is in charge of it. Thanks. Just reply to this message and put [[User:Drmies]] in the address, so I know you answered. Thanks. Drmies (talk) 23:12, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Again, please explain what is going on--I would hate to block all the accounts at your college. If I do that, y'all will never finish your homework. And please tell your professor to get in touch with me. Drmies (talk) 23:21, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We are all supposed to update the page Calliewright22-HCF22 (talk) 23:29, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's not really what y'all are doing: there are things that are not going right. Please tell your professor to get in touch with me and/or with someone in the Education program, like User:Sage (Wiki Ed). Thanks. Drmies (talk) 23:32, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
can you please leave my edits Calliewright22-HCF22 (talk) 23:39, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I cannot, and I have had to revert a whole bunch of edits from your classmates. Wikipedia articles are not the place to practice, not without knowing what the requirements are for sourcing, for tone, and for content. For instance, the quotes, we do not typically include a bunch of quotes, not unless they are well worth citing according to secondary sources. You said "famous", but that those are famous needs to be proven. And then there's little things, things that are fixable, but we cannot be responsible for copyediting all the edits made by those students. So "Famous Quotes" is not really a good title for a section, and that Q should be in lower case, and book titles should be in italics--but above all, all content requires (really) secondary sourcing. In this edit there's an extraneous bullet point, punctuation is missing, there's no indication of who organizes this lecture and where, and there's no secondary source to verify this and prove it's worth mentioning in an encyclopedic article. All these things can in principle be fixed, but that is exactly why we have an educational program that teaches students those things. Your professor is not helping you by throwing you in the deep end. Drmies (talk) 23:54, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
