Hello, Mland19, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam 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.

Your recent edits

[edit]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 14:46, 19 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Death Wish Coffee

[edit]

Hi Mland19. I've taken a look at your draft.

  • I'm not sure what's going on with this section. References on Wikipedia are generated by inline citations and the reference list is built out automatically. There's no need to order references yourself or maintain the numbering. I've renamed that section for now, eventually you'll want to convert all those links to references and remove the section entirely (as it won't be needed--each reference used will be listed automatically in the section above it).
  • A lot of the draft reads like promotional copy. A Wikipedia article will not normally include a detailed product breakdown nor extended coverage of a super bowl commercial (even if it was important to the subject). Remember, a wikipedia reader isn't interested in hearing the dramatic story of how some company succeeded. They're interested in learning neutral, factual information about that company. They are also not looking for product information or similar content, because they can get that more easily from the company's website and the like.
  • Take a look at some existing pages on businesses (I've tried to find coffee roasters to keep things roughly similar) for context: Stumptown Coffee Roasters, Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea, La Colombe Coffee Roasters. None of these articles are perfect, but the style and structure are roughly what you want to shoot for.

I hope this helps, Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 11:03, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
