Hi! I'm a student working to build content on Wikipedia content for a course. I'm looking forward to working with others, so let me know if there's anything I can work to strengthen. --Jcgrim (talk) 17:41, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Jcgrim, 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.

Note
[edit]Hi! I saw that you were planning on possibly editing the article on women in conservatism in the United States. I wanted to give you a head's up that this is a fairly controversial topic, both on and off Wikipedia. As such the page needs to be very carefully approached, as you need to make sure that your changes or additions are worded as neutrally as possible and have the strongest possible sources. If you add something and the content is removed, make sure to discuss the topic on the article's talk page and resolve any concerns before re-adding anything. Essentially, you can definitely still edit the page, but a careful touch needs to be applied and it's also a good idea to post on the talk page prior to adding anything, to let people know what you plan on doing. It may be better to focus on a single section that really needs work than the entire article, to be honest. That'll be far less pressure than trying to tackle an entire large article.
It looks like your sources are all academic and scholarly, which is excellent - these are often the strongest sources out there. I'm also definitely a good resource for this as well, as I can help review your work and let you know if something needs to be tweaked or changed - especially as some words and phrases are innocuous outside of Wikipedia and could come across as non-neutral on the website. I hope that this all helps! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:49, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
