Talk:Men's studies in the Caribbean

page created

I have created this new page entitled "Men's Studies in the Caribbean" as a part of a class assignment for a history course I am taking in University. This is my first experience with wikipedia so I hope my article is acceptable and look forward to any advice or critiques that might help my improve this article, or any others I may write in the future. Thank you in advance for your imput.--Irishhistoryfan (talk) 05:13, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi Irishhistoryfan, well done on writing this page. I need to ask why this page have it's own article rather than a sub section in Men's studies? If the field is still emerging it might be best to merge and redirect this page into Men's studies until the section becomes big enough for its own article. What do you think?--Cailil ^talk 18:35, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi Cailil, thanks! I'm glad it is up to par. I honestly wasn't sure which to put it under, especially given the fact that the men's studies article is shorter than this one I was writing. However, I think you are right and merging the page might be a better idea. I'll go read the corresponding help sections now on how to do this. Thanks for your imput!--Irishhistoryfan (talk) 04:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

I've done some work on this page, but it needs more. Be careful of writing in "essay style" - synthesis is original research (or original argument) and Wikipedia is not the place for that (see WP:NOR)--Cailil ^talk 21:43, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Issues

The issues I raised back in December '07 have not been addressed. The page is still in essay style, I'm still unclear why this emerging field needs a whole article of its own (rather than a section in Men's studies) and most troubling it needs better attribution. iF these issues cannot be addressed it will be summarized or shortened and merged to Men's studies--Cailil ^talk 22:34, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
