It seems that you decided to replace a short (stub) article (buried valley) that was in need of expansion. Your approach was to simply delete the existing referenced content and replace it with your content and references, but totally ignoring Wikipedia style. Your first paragraph was all in bold and was not an introductory section. Your content was referenced, but contained no links. You failed to use proper sections and had zero links to other Wikipedia pages. Study the links in the welcome message above and try again by integrating the existing content and references with your new content. Make that effort and I or others will work to improve/fix where needed. But just deleting existing content and replacing with an unwikified mess most likely will be treated poorly. Good luck with your class :) Vsmith (talk) 03:07, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
