Hello, Sulaimankarim, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian 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.

Community health center edits

[edit]

Hi @Sulaimankarim:. I've just undone the content you recently added to the Community health center article. Please don't worry, as your text has not been lost and can easily be retrieved for further editing through the article's history.

There were a couple of issues I noticed, firstly that you seemed to have copied it straight from your user sandbox, but hadn't taken the time to properly integrate it into the article - you left the sanbox template, so text appeared at the top of your section as if it was a sandbox page. You also included the "References" section from your sandbox, even though the article already had a References section at the bottom (the formatting and order of the sections was therefore slightly messed up). These are very minor issues and I would have just fixed them myself, however I also think the text you added wasn't appropriate for this article.

In my opinion it reads more like an essay or news article than an encyclopaedia article, but even if it is a good fit for wikipedia I think it is going into too much detail about the very specific conditions in the US for this article, which is supposed to cover community health centres across the world (which obviously varies a lot!). There is a United States section to the article, where your addition might have fit in (rather than its own separate heading), but I think a better location might have been the Community health centers in the United States article, which is referred to as the "main article" at the start of that section.

If you do add the text back to wikipedia, I would consider how it integrates into the rest of the article (e.g. existing content, structure and headings). Hope this makes sense, and please don't be discouraged from editing, these are just my thoughts as one fellow editor. Beevil (talk) 14:17, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
