College project

Hi, I am college student, and for one of my classes we are working with wikipedia as a medium. For my final, we are publishing content to wikipedia articles that we deem as having content gaps that we can fill. I was given "A Stolen Life", and plan on publishing changes in the coming days. Some of these changes are to create an analysis section, a genre section, and a publication section. I also added several points to the background section, and attempted to better modernize the article.

I have several proposed changes that are present on my sandbox, and can be cited using my annotated bibliography that is also present in my sandbox. I felt this page deserved to have a much more detailed page then what is currently there because of all the information that is present about Jaycee Dugard's kidnapping by the Garridos. There was a ton of information present about the matter. This article develops a lot of the underlying emotional aspects of what is an incredibly traumatic experience that on wikipedia hasn't been elaborated on, except for the actual physical kidnapping.----Will Prout — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wdprout (talk • contribs) 18:30, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Will. I have added a header to this section. Please note that content should be about this article subject, which is the book, and remember to include inline citations to reliable sources for any content you want to add. You can also sign your posts with ~~~~, which will include your username and the date automatically for you. Take care. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 01:42, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
