Student assignments should always be carried out using a course page set up by the instructor. It is usually best to develop assignments in your sandbox. After evaluation, the additions may go on to become a Wikipedia article or be published in an existing article. |
Welcome!
editHello, JD Johns, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.
I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Feedback
editNice work on your draft. I made a few edits to get things in line with Wikipedia's style manual. Check my edit summaries for more details.
The main problem is that you have no inline references in your work, so it's essentially unsourced. When you copied the text from the Cipollone v. Liggett Group, Inc. article, you must have copied it without first hitting the edit button. As a result, the formatting wasn't preserved. If you go back to that article, you can copy the references over one by one, but you need to click edit first. For your additions though, you'll need to add proper references. This isn't optional.
Without references, I can't give you proper feedback. Let me know once you've gotten to that. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:12, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
