Louisiana State Penitentiary
Welcome to Wikipedia! I'm going to take a look at your edits to Louisiana State Penitentiary. If I encounter any issues I'll let you know WhisperToMe (talk) 01:59, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * So far your edits look good! As long as the material reflects the sources being cited, and as long as you add new sources whenever you are citing something new, it's good to go! A few things:
 * 1. About this edit - Make sure to re-cite the source when making a new paragraph break, since the info comes from the same source. Something like this. - Another example
 * 2. Fixed a minor spelling error - If "Unknown Prisoners" is a proper name, it will help to have it in quotes so people know that - Add space
 * 3. About the barriers - Varnado (2003) describes them as "long poles"... as in "Stop signs on the end of long poles keep cars from entering or leaving the prison grounds without the approval of the guards keeping watch and who manually raise and lower the poles to allow cars through the gate." - It may be helpful to state "poles which act as barriers" or something like that. If Angola uses a new type of barrier, it should help to find a new source which states what kind of barrier is used.
 * 4. as for this, nature preserve should be uncapitalized here since it's a common noun, not a proper noun
 * 5. Thanks for catching the "as of that year" mistake I made regarding the outcamp building fire code violation. I meant to say 1993.
 * It also may make sense to try to do multiple edits in one session, so there aren't as many entries in the history log.
