[edit]Hello, Sbenson13, 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 say you're a student, so I'm giving you a break and explaining why I reverted your edits to this article.
(1) The vast number of small edits you made were either totally unnecessary, being cosmetic in nature, or broke Wikistyle, such as that we do not capitalize section titles after the first word, except for proper nouns.
(2) The major change you made, the "Impact of Disney" section, was rife with misinformation, mischaracterization, and information that had nothing to do with Disney per se. Disney's coming to Broadway did indeed had a strong effect both on the district and on the type of material (primarily musicals) presented there, and not everyone agrees that the effect was completely positive. There is a section to be added there, but it needs to be tightly focused on Disney and much more sharply cited than the one you added. I suggest before you add anything else major to the article, you run it by other edtors on Talk:Theater District, Manhattan.
Please see WP:BRD and do not restore your edits without getting a consensus to do so on the talk page. Thanks. Beyond My Ken (talk) 21:00, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
