An article you recently created, Gender Analysis of 'What He Is', is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello Liz. I am currently working on this article as an assignment for a gender studies course. As part of this assignment we are expected to submit our peer reviewed article in the mainspace. I appreciate your feedback and will make the necessary adjustments to get my article up to Wikipedia standard. Thank you. Bright Sparks29 (talk) 23:08, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid Wikipedia has zero tolerance for original research, nor does it tolerate coursework kimono main article space.

Your Wikipedia peers are reviewing it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gender Analysis of 'What He Is'. I am, afraid your class peers, pleasant people that they may be, have no relevance to Wikipedia.

Is this a formal Wikipedia Education course? Please ask your tutor to contact Wikipedia:Education noticeboard in order to regularise this project and for you to save your marks and grade. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 15:23, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps you can tell the teacher who set this assignment that it is unwise to get one's students to post to Wikipedia as an assignment without first getting enough experience of editing Wikipedia oneself to know what is acceptable and what isn't. This one absolutely isn't. JBW (talk) 15:51, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I left some recommendations on the talk page for your classmate - definitely check them out! ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 13:02, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any chance that you could explain to us at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Undisclosed Jamaican school writing project what is going on? Uncle G (talk)

I just wanted to reassure you—per your comment—that absolutely, you are not to blame for recent events. Don't tell them I said this, but if anyone is to blame, it's your lecturer  :) and, after all, we all have to do what our lecturers tell do we not. But Wikipedia has certain minimum requirements and expectations for its content, and your institution is not the first (and will certainly not be the last!) to assume because Wikipedia occasionally claims to be an educational resource, therefore it must equal free webhosting for them As you and you8r colleagues have just found out, it is not. Best of luck with your studies, and your future career on Wikipedia—don't be put off by this little contretemps! SN54129 17:08, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• You are definitely not to blame! Let me know if you want to do any editing on Wikipedia - I can definitely help by giving you advice and pointers! I don't want you to be soured to all of this! ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 15:00, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
