This user is a student editor in Wikipedia:Wiki_Ed/Oberlin_College/GSFS_101_(Fall_2017).
Student assignments should always be carried out using a course page set up by the instructor. It is usually best to develop assignments in your sandbox. After evaluation, the additions may go on to become a Wikipedia article or be published in an existing article.

Welcome![edit]

Hello, Tesr1208, 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.

Kamala Harris[edit]

Hi - I wanted to let you know that some of your content was removed from the article on Karmala Harris by Mx. Granger. Their comments basically stated that some of the content was not backed up by the source material, which made the content original research as you were drawing conclusions based on source material. Be careful, as things like "Despite her role in the Norsworthy case, Kamala Harris maintains her reputation as a champion of LGBT rights" could be seen as original research or a personal opinion as some may not agree with this. Also, some may view the "despite her..." part as a bit of a pointed statement. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:52, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
