Hello, Kaw289, 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.

Hi! What type of message are you getting? Can you send me a screenshot of what you are seeing to shalor@wikiedu.org? Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:20, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Offhand I think you may be running into issues with proxy links. By this I mean that the URL has your university name in it. So for example, this would be a proxy link:
www.vcu.jstor.org/stable/10.7560/771086
I can't remember exactly how JSTOR configures their links but this is fairly close to how it's set up with most links. With some links you can just remove the school name to shorten it to something like "www.jstor.org/stable/10.7560/771086", however this isn't possible with all of them. With the others you may need to do things a little differently, like using the DOI if this is available. With JSTOR, they should have a permalink available in the listing. Definitely still email me if you have questions. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:26, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I did some tweaking on your draft, predominantly for formatting and style reasons. I think you've done a good job here, considering that sourcing for this is harder to find since a lot of it may not be on the Internet. My main note would be to continue to find sourcing to flesh out the article. I think that these could be usable sources, but I'm not able to access them fully: [1], [2], [3], [4]. I did add the last one, as I was able to see enough to see that it's usable, but not enough to really use it to flesh out any information.

As far as peer reviews go, I didn't see any offhand - I'm going to assume that there weren't any done yet by the others. You may want to talk to your instructor to see if she could give you input as well, or if she knows of someone you can ask in specific. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:37, 10 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
