Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also 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 useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 15:13, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Couple things I see

Hi Acburke1, I noticed a couple things when looking at your sandbox. (1) Section headers should have sentence case (capitalize the first word and proper words only). (2) Wikipedia uses logical quotation style - you'll need to pull the periods/commas out of the quotation marks (which is probably opposite what you are used to doing).
