For my assignment, I'll be editing the Impression Management page under the subtitle "Profiles on social networking sites." I plan to insert links to other Wikipedia pages, rewrite sentences that are copied from sources, and introduce social media usage statistics. I’ll also add some information on how college aged individuals use social media for impression management. Sources include:

[1]College Students' Motivations for Facebook Use

[2]Social Networking Sites and Risky Health Behavior

[3]Social Media Fact Sheet

[4]College Student SNS Identity Manipulation

Drafted Contributions

Insert this as the first sentence in my section: Social media usage among American adults grew from 5% in 2005 to 69% in 2018.[3] Facebook is the most popular social media platform, followed by Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter.[3]

Insert this into the third paragraph: College students are motivated to use Facebook for impression management, self-expression, entertainment, communication and relationship maintenance.[1] College students sometimes rely on Facebook to build a favorable online identity, which contributes to greater satisfaction with campus life.[1] In building an online persona, college students sometimes engage in identity manipulation, including altering personality and appearance, to increase their self-esteem and appear more attractive to peers.[4] College students also use Facebook to promote risky behavior, such as alcohol use.[2] As a form of impression management aimed at building recognition and acceptance among peers, college students may create posts that present risky behavior as signs of achievement, fun, and sociability.[2] Since risky behavior is frequently deemed attractive by peers, college students often use their social media profiles to highlight instances of alcohol use and unhealthy eating to gain approval.[2]

Delete this sentence because of plagiarism and outdated SNS: "Social networking sites like MySpace, Facebook, and StudiVZ are popular means of communicating personality."

Reword this sentence because of plagiarism: "Recent theoretical and empirical considerations of homepages and Web 2.0 platforms show that impression management is a major motive for actively participating in social networking sites." Change to: Social media users are motivated to actively participate in SNS from a desire to manage their online image.
