This page is a work in progress and I am approaching my subject in good faith

I’m a student at the University of Sydney, studying for an Arts degree. I am in a Wikipedia Education class, and I’m currently learning how edit and contribute to Wikipedia. My tutor is Airbubbles_451.

I am majoring in History and also doing a minor in Film Studies.

Please don’t bite me, I’m a newbie!

I’m a university student in a Wikipedia Education class, and I’m currently learning how to contribute to Wikipedia.
I am approaching my subject in good faith.

If you have any concerns or questions, my tutor’s name is Airbubbles_451 (talk · contribs). Thanks!

Paragraph: This helps you set the style of the text. For example, a header, or plain paragraph text. You can also use it to offset block quotes.

A : Highlight your text, then click here to format it with bold, italics, etc. The "More" options allows you to underline, add code snippets, and change language keyboards.

Links: The chain button allows you to link your text. Highlight the word, and push the button. The visual editor will automatically suggest related Wikipedia articles for that word or phrase. This is a great way to connect your article to more Wikipedia content. You only have to link important words once, usually during the first time they appear. If you want to link to pages outside of Wikipedia (for an "external links" section, for example) click on the "External link" tab.

Cite: The citation tool in the visual editor helps format your citations. You can simply paste a DOI or URL, and the visual editor will try to sort out all of the fields you need. Be sure to review it, however, and apply missing fields manually (if you know them). You can also add books, journals, news, and websites manually. That opens up a quick guide for inputting your citations. Finally, you can click the "re-use" tab if you've already added a source and just want to cite it again.

  1. Bullets: To add bullet points or a numbered list, click here.
  2. Insert: This tab lets you add media, images, or tables.
  3. Ω The final tab allows you to add special characters, such as those found in non-English words, scientific notation, and a handful of language extensions.

Practicing citations

Specifically, it will be used to explain Newtons concept of ‘revolutionary suicide’ as opposed to ‘reactionary suicide’. [1]

In this article Johnson argues that Newton sat in a tradition of conservative rhetoric and he and the Black Panther Party, which he lead, were not the quite the outside dangerous threating force portrayed in the contemporary media. [2]
