Hi Koalakid15, here are some thoughts about your draft so far:
- Your citations are not done correctly. For a refresher, I've inserted a GIF, or you can review this training.
- Try varying your sentence structure somewhat (
Others were brought to Masterpiece Gardens, a tourist attraction in Lake Wales Florida in the 1960s to enhance tourism, growing to as many as a thousand in the 1980s. Others were brought to Hawaii. Other examples around the world include the introduction of the Common brown lemur to Comoros
- Wikipedians love verifiability. In general, the thought is that pretty much everything should be cited. If multiple consecutive sentences come from the same source, though, then it is acceptable to cite the source once at the end of the consecutive sentences. That means you shouldn't have any section or paragraph end without a citation, as some of yours do
- You have a consistent misspelling. The term is Ethnophoresy
- Is your definition at the beginning correct? Other authors define it as "the dispersal of animals to other regions through introduction or translocation by humans", not specifically limited to primates
- If you want to keep the scope the same, you instead create an article titled "Primates as introduced species" or something like that.
- For creating sections/section headers, instead of trying to manually create them by adding bold face, when in edit mode, you'll want to
- Highlight the text "Impacts"
- Remove boldface
- Go up to the top toolbar where it says "Paragraph"
- Click the dropdown menu and select "Section"
- You should consider the structure of this overall. Wikipedia articles should have a lead up top (think of it like the abstract). The lead is everything that comes before the first section title, and it summarizes the rest of the article. Try exploring articles like the well-written Invasive species for examples of article structures. If you had to subdivide your subject into distinct sections, what would those sections be? What themes are prevalent?
