Hello, Takkygirl1153, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam 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.

Review of Wiki Outline:

1. There is definitely a lot a lot a lot of information. What we discussed in class about having the very general summary then going into all the specifics would be a good way to form the article. Be careful that the sources are going to be very biased, just from the nature from where they are coming from.

2. Changes include everything we mentioned, consider making it more reader-friendly for those who are uninformed.

3. Most important thing needed is to look at the article big picture. Be able to structure the article first, before diving into each specific topic. This will help you avoid being overwhelmed with all of the information you want to include.

4. What I learned is that I need to research my topic more. The passion you have for this topic has kind of pushed me to want to learn more about my own topic, in order to make my article the most helpful for others as possible.

If you have any other questions please feel free to ask, sorry if this review wasn't too descriptive. Corbin Apple (talk) 17:28, 19 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the feedback in my sandbox. I will be sure to incorporate the discussion of defining what is made in the USA in my reflection and potentially in the talk page of the existing article. I am going to point out the parts that could use further work, beyond what I am doing to the article. Farley.ty (talk) 16:47, 21 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hey Alessandra, thank you for your comments! While I do not think I necessarily need to add the background of overtime (because the Overtime article I link to does this), I will definitely incorporate the differences in the industries and hoe some are more demanding of long hours than others. Also, thank you for the link to that article, I will absolutely include that in either the counter-argument section or in another section. Corbin Apple (talk) 17:26, 21 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
