VISUAL EDITOR BUTTONS

Paragraph: Set the style of your text. For example, make a header or plain paragraph text. You can also use it to offset block quotes.

A : Highlight your text, then click here to format it with bold, italics, etc. The “More” options allows you to underline (U), cross-out text ( S ), add code snippets ( { } ), change language keyboards (Aあ), and clear all formatting ( ⃠ ).

Links: Highlight text and push this button to make it a link. The Visual Editor will automatically suggest related Wikipedia articles for that word or phrase. This is a great way to connect your article to more Wikipedia content. You only have to link important words once, usually during the first time they appear. If you want to link to pages outside of Wikipedia (for an “external links” section, for example) click on the “External link” tab.

Cite: The citation tool in the Visual Editor helps format your citations. You can simply paste a DOI or URL, and the Visual Editor will try to sort out all of the fields you need. Be sure to review it, however, and apply missing fields manually (if you know them). You can also add books, journals, news, and websites manually. That opens up a quick guide for inputting your citations. Once you've added a source, you can click the “re-use” tab to cite it again.

Bullets: To add bullet points or a numbered list, click here.

Insert: This tab lets you add media, images, or tables.

Ω: This tab allows you to add special characters, such as those found in non-English words, scientific notation, and a handful of language extensions.

Kickapoo People


 * 1) Is the article's content relevant to the topic?

Yes, the article briefly details where the Kickapoo tribes originated and the history of their relocation until the present day.

2. Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?

I would say that there is a large amount of historical context that is absent from the article. Their relation to Tacumseh Sherman and their participation with the British in The War of 1812 is only mentioned in passing and seems to need expounding. Nothing of their cultural traits or tribal formation is mentioned. Very little is mentioned of the present day other than the reservations they live on.

3. Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?

The article remains neutral on all counts due to its lack of specifics regarding the tribes history.

4. Is the article well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic?

It is "well-organized" I suppose, but it is immensely brief on all counts. I have to believe that there is more to be discussed about the tribes culture than the latitude and longitude of where the tribes exist today.

5. How can the article be improved?

More detail about their involvement in Indian Removal and their roles in both the Battle of Tippecanoe and The War of 1812. Their spiritual leader Kennekuk seems an important figure to their history and I cant see why it isn't elaborated about in the article. Maybe everything about him has to be featured on his separate Wiki page? I don't know the rules on that exactly. The article needs to portray a more refined vision of this tribes role in American history.

Afrocubanismo

Under influential artists insert Alejo Carpentier, Marcelino Arozarena

Under "Origin of Afrocubanismo"

African Cuban artists involved in this movement were witnesses to the the Race Massacre of 1912 and subsequent squash of the Negro Rebellion by Cuba's army with assistance from the United States. During the massacre as many as two thousand Afro-Cubans were killed, many of them comparsas that the government feared were trying to integrate their mulatto heritage.
