Article Contribution Review

[edit]

Hi,

Here are some things I found when reviewing the contributions you made to your chosen article.

Consider changing the wording when describing the relationship between parents and boomerangers; by saying “relationships are better kept when” it may come off as being persuasive rather than neutral writing.

You did a good job explaining the term “boomeranger” and the generations which it’s applied to.

Double check your grammar; I noticed you often wrote parents house rather than parents’ house.

In the intro of the article it states that this phenomenon is found in a western culture. Later in the article, you make a comment about young adults from many cultures not paying for expenses after moving back home with their parent. Maybe try to clear this up but changing the wording/being more specific about what “many cultures” you’re referencing (are these only western cultures?).

Other than that, your contributions looked great! Let me know if you have any questions for me.

Thank you for your recent contributions, such as Boomerangers. Getting started creating new articles on Wikipedia can be tricky, and you might like to try creating a draft version first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary, with less risk of deletion. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including Your First Article and the Tutorial. You might also like to try the Article Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. I have moved the text to Draft:Boomerangers for now. Calton | Talk 09:45, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
