Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Not Overit, 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.

Peer Review

[edit]

First: there aren't a lot of citations especially in the earlier sections. Finding citations especially for the different theories would add a lot of credibility. Second: the UK is split into sections based on century, and then also their prime minister. You could do something similar with the US and Europe sections. Third: there's nothing for South/Central American, Asian, or African countries so you could add sections for them. Give readers a bit of insight into what other places consider reform and how they go about it. It could be especially interesting if other countries have different theories of prison reform. Fourth: the Advocacy Work section is very short. You could cite Angela Davis easily through either her book or her speeches. I'm sure there's any number of people as well you could add to the section, as well as expanding beyond the US if you choose.
