Article to improve: Freedom of Movement
I believe this article could be improved in a few ways: - Some restructuring: Section names are somewhat awkward, and I feel that the regional sections should be organized geographically, not alphabetically as some are not single countries. - The regional sections need to be expanded significantly and I feel some have some NPOV issues, I will seek to address as many of these as possible. - The history section seems disconnected from the rest of the article, I will attempt to make it more coherent.
Some sources I intend to use for this include:

I welcome any comments or suggestions on the issue!
Article to Improve: Human Trafficking in Mexico
I believe this article could be improved in a few ways:
- The lead section is very long (3 paragraphs) and addresses information that could be moved to and expanded upon in other sections of the page. - Almost the entirety of the article is drawn from a single U.S. State Department report on the subject. - There is a lack of variety in sources for the information included. - The structure of the article mirrors that of the report rather than organizing information in order of relevance to readers - Various topics of interest and relevance including impunity and the southern border are completely excluded
I intend to improve this article using some of these sources:

Introduction to contentious topics
You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template. Bbb23 (talk) 14:23, 28 November 2023 (UTC)

Message about edit reversion.
I am moving your message here so that topics in my talk page aren't mixed up, since you replied to my prior conversation with another user:
Hi - you just deleted my edit on Hovertravel, where I added the Estonian hovercraft service. Why? 193.40.12.10 (talk) 16:20, 12 January 2024 (UTC) Arcendeight (talk) 16:22, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Hi there! I hope you don't mind my moving your comment here. To answer your question, I was probably a bit hasty and should have taken the time to re-do it for you. The primary issue with your edit was your inclusion of the link to a rival company in the text. I'll go ahead and add your content back while including your source as a citation (which you can do by clicking the quotation mark icon, since I see you're using the visual editor), so you can see what I mean. We don't generally include links like that in articles because it clutters the page, makes it unreadable, and is not encyclopedic in style. All the best Arcendeight (talk) 16:26, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Ah thanks - yes, I was just about to re-edit the link to be a citation when you vanished it... I could see I'd not done it properly. Cheers (from someone who lives in Estonia and will actually take this hovercraft trip on 20 January because I want to show my teen daughter what this mode of transport does!) 193.40.12.10 (talk) 16:32, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Oh my! I'm sorry for jumping the gun before you had the chance, in that case! And thank you for following up :) Hovercraft are super cool! I hope your daughter enjoyed the ride; I've always wanted to ride one myself. Warmly Arcendeight (talk) 16:34, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Bridget. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Sevana, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Bridget (talk) 21:19, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Bridget, I'm glad you stopped by! I think you may have made a mistake and intended to revert the prior edit. My own was simply a grammatical correction of incorrectly spelled words! I'll drop a message on your talk page as well to alert you, as I assume you would like to revert that prior edit by an IP. Please do let me know if I'm wrong!
