Content deletion

A new user has repeatedly removed significant content from this article, but without explaining why. I've restored the content for now. Kaldari (talk) 21:03, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Updated content October 2018

My undergraduate research class is currently working on a project about women in feminism. Part of that project is to provide an updated Wikipedia source for each leader we are presenting on. Angela McRobbie's page isn't as up to date as it could be, considering some of the descriptions cited her last book as "The Aftermath of Feminism". Her page will be fully updated by October 30th, so I would greatly appreciate if the changes I made were left alone. I do apologize for not having a previous explanation. I am only using Wikipedia for this class project and I'm not familiar with how everything works. I will be making various changes to Angela McRobbie's page over the next couple of weeks, and I will be sure to have it as accurate as possible with all references included. Please be patient with me. Thank you!! AccurateMaster17 (talk) 21:28, 11 October 2018 (UTC)AccurateMaster17[reply]

As noted in my edit summary, this isn't how Wikipedia works. By all means improve the article byremoving out of date or irrelevant content and by adding up to date and relevant content. But please do this piece meal with full explanations in edit summaries, or, even better complemented by a narrative here so that we can all understand what you are doing. When writing on any talk page, please also sign your posts using 4 tildes "~~~~". Thanks Velella ^{Velella Talk} 21:20, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the response. I sincerely apologize for the mistakes and errors. Our professor didn't give us a full breakdown for the rules of Wikipedia, so I am struggling. From now on I will review any changes that are made to make sure they are done correctly. AccurateMaster17 (talk) 21:28, 11 October 2018 (UTC)AccurateMaster17[reply]

Not a problem. I am still struggling after 13 years here! The up-side is that if you are open and share what you are doing and engage with the community, you may get others helping you out and contributing, if you are lucky. Good editing Velella ^{Velella Talk} 21:30, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
