Tree frog evolution[edit]

Hi Emery.86. I noticed that your addition to the tree frog article was removed with little explanation. I just wanted to give you some feedback on your additions, and some pointers to help you craft future edits that are likely to stick.

  • You didn't cite any sources. It's obvious from yoursandbox that you have sources, but that isn't apparent from your edit to the tree frog article.
  • Your additions are vague and non-specific. Saying that "The evolution of the tree frog is very vast and involves thousands of species" doesn't really say much beyond the fact that there are thousands of species of tree frog. All evolution is vast. Instead of saying that "There is a red eye tree frog..." or "Another tree frog in Australia..." be specific - what species is it - and (if possible) provided a wikilink to the Wikipedia article about that specific species.
  • You need to brush up on the grammar of the text you want to add before posting your edits
