Hi Diannaa. Thank you for your attention and input! This is a draft and wasn't aware drafts are analyzed also, thought was just for me to work on. On that, I'm well aware that section must be rewritten to be "information not content" according to Wikipedia regulations. It is only there for me to look at at this draft stage so I can think about rewriting in my own words, well before submission.

Thank you again for your interest and help! Amanda scott (talk) 15:41, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Amanda Scott
