Gender aspects of globalization in China

edit

Just so you know, the content that you contributed to at Talk:Gender aspects of globalization in China, which was deleted as the talk page of a nonexistent article, has been restored and moved to User talk:Dagypt/Gender aspects of globalization in China. -- Ed (Edgar181) 19:59, 19 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Your contribution to the draft

edit

I am looking forward to seeing your section today. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 17:40, 2 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

That's a good start, but you'll need more content, and to add wiki hyperlinks. Also, you should merge your draft with drafts of your other group members (currently here). You should be working on the same article, not on separate ones. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 17:15, 3 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
Good job with your edits here, but you should try to incorporate your edits into your group article here first. Then your group article should be moved and replace the article you just created. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 23:08, 5 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Regarding your fixes to the article: good job, but some of the things that were struck out haven't actually been fixed, so I've unstruck them. If you have questions about those points, feel free to ask. Cheers, Nikkimaria (talk) 15:16, 9 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Re your questions: copy-editing means checking for style and grammar problems. The best way to do this would be to read it out loud or to get someone else to read it out loud, as editing the same page for a long time can make it difficult to catch style errors. Encyclopedic tone is a widespread problem in student-created articles, which tend to be either overly academic or too conversational. You want to avoid arguing points, inserting opinions/emotions, making judgments, using too much jargon or colloquialisms - in short, present the facts in a neutral way (like an encyclopedia) instead of presenting a point of view (like an essay), and do so using appropriate language.

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
