Welcome!

[edit]

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

  • You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 05:13, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Feedback request

[edit]

I got your request for feedback, so I took a look at your sandbox. It's a good start, but a few things that need doing

  1. Only the article title should be bolded
  2. You used numbered references. These are almost impossible to maintain in the long run. Please use inline references instead.
  3. Each statement in the article needs to be directly connected with a supporting citation
  4. Only proper nouns should be capitalized (although abbreviations like BI can be as well). Section headers should use sentence, not title capitalization - only the first word should be capitalized.
  5. Any term that the average reader might be unfamiliar with should be linked. That way readers can find out more about the topic.
  6. Wikipedia articles don't have introductions, they have lead sections. Please see pages 7-9 of the Editing Wikipedia brochure. You should have received a hard copy from your instructor, but just in case, I have linked to it above.
    (When replying to this message, please include {{ping|Ian (Wiki Ed)}} in your response, to ensure that I see your reply.)

Follow up

[edit]

Per above

  1.  Done
  2.  Done
  3. Any content after the last reference in a paragraph is effectively unsourced.  Not done
  4. Didn't even try[1]  Not done
  5. Only a few terms are linked.  Not done
  6. Changing the name of the section doesn't change it into a lead section.  Not done

You still haven't done most of what I asked you to do last time. Please do those things before asking me for additional feedback. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 22:03, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
