Looking for an article...
Hi, User:Beckalinageorge! It looks like you are interested in writing or editing an article that looks at a specific 'coming of age' phenomenon in a non-US cultural context. Is that correct? Coming of age has already been pretty extensively developed, as has Okuyi. Genpuku and GuanLi, however, have not been extensively developed. With our visiting sociologist this year at Drake coming from China, GuanLi might be a good Coming of Age ritual to explore. Cheers! Prof.Vandegrift (talk) 05:05, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

Cool topic direction!
Hi Beckalinageorge! Your topic direction of looking at different coming of age rituals across the globe will be super interesting! I am excited to see how your article develops! HBov (talk) 08:33, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

Your proposal
Hi, Beckalinageorge! I am very impressed with the thoughtful analysis you made of the Genpuku article. Your discussion is specific, demonstrates understanding of Wikipedia, and has a thoughtful sociological consideration of why the article matters. Please make sure that you have sources to be able to work on this. I do not yet have a sense of sources you have found on the topic. I look forward to reading the bibliography. As you post sources, please write a bit about what each source says and how it contributes to your potential revisions. What do you have, and what are you still looking for? Ideally, you could also inform a reader how the sources you end up with will shape the revision plans you mention in your proposal.

Please post your intentions to edit on the article talk page.

Very nice work! Cheers, Prof.Vandegrift (talk) 02:39, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

Sources feedback
Hi, BLG- In this review of your sources, I was looking for 3-5 sources total, correct formatting, the use of scholarly sources and the incorporation of global perspectives. You have chosen scholarly sources, although I am not sure from your list what information you plan to draw from each. Your next step is to create an outline of the proposed revisions and write your revisions up in your sandbox. You will also need to identify and use doi numbers for all journal articles and correctly format all sources for Wikipedia. You can do this as part of your article revisions in your sandbox.

I look forward to reading your first draft!
