Vijay Prashad

I think your edits are a step in the right direction, but I think you need to familiarize yourself a bit more with wikipedia. Two main things: 1) You need to summarize Prashad's work, not just paste in a large section of one of his articles. Shorter block quotes are fine, but the entire section can't simply be a quote from one of his articles. 2) Be careful about colloquial language. Wikipedia articles should read like encyclopedia articles.

I deleted your section on Socialism not because I don't think it's appropriate to include, but because it was only a quote. I initially tried to summarize it but I don't know enough about his writing on socialism to write a section from scratch.Chris902 (talk) 01:36, 24 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
