Hello, Tuh18327, 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.

Hi! I brought in one of my colleagues to help me with reviewing the content and he brought up some good points:

With the study about Trinidad culture, were they looking at people from Trinidad and Tobago or just the Trinidad land mass? Some more information is needed about this, as the term Trini can mean both Trinidad and Tobago. It would be better to be more specific about who was surveyed for the study and if necessary, quote Miller on who was surveyed. The rationale for this is that if someone questions who is covered in the survey and the terminology, it can be easier to show that any uncertainty about the "who" is due to the researchers.

It would be best to avoid using colloquialisms on Wikipedia unless they're specifically mentioned in the source material - if so, then a note can be added along the lines of "The participants, who used the colloquialism 'Trinis' to refer to themselves,...". This would mark it as something they said as opposed to something we added ourselves.

Other than that the work looks good - a lot of this is just going to be factchecking and making sure that we're representing the study group as best as possible since the term Trinis - and even the term Trinidadian - can mean a lot of different things depending on the person.
