Hello, Powey 11, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with Wiki Education; 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.

Encyclopedic tone

I see you've added a new section to creativity recently. While it is written well overall, I still feel that I should point you to Wikipedia's guidelines on editorializing. Specifically, the encyclopedic tone is undercut by words such as "surprisingly" and "staggering". Remember, Wikipedia reports things in the most neutral, uncaring phrasing imaginable.

On a separate note, some of the linked sourced you've listed lead to dead pages, one of the Psychology Today ones at least.--Megaman en m (talk) 09:30, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
