Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
 * Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers,  Butler Blog   (talk) 20:55, 30 March 2024 (UTC)


 * One important thing to point out is that what you've been trying to add at Chick tracts is based on primary sources and is essentially original research, which we don't do here. You need to use what is stated in secondary sources.  Please see the difference between primary and secondary sources.  That may help you understand why your edit has been reverted.

 * I see the previous paragraph:
 * Some tracts, like Let's Fly Away and The Throw Away Kid, portray the subject of child abuse. The earliest on the subject is Somebody Loves Me, which focused on a young boy being bludgeoned to death by a drunken guardian after not getting enough to pay on the rent.
 * This cites only primary sources, but I assume the difference is partly that I am wording things in a way that would make a secondary source necessary? Any way to go about this? Sorry, I am newer to this stuff. BagLuke (talk) 07:11, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
