Welcome!
Hello, Butterfy215, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. Yes, I like this assignment for an experience. I am very thankful for the exposure!

Assistive technology
Hi! It looks like your addition was reverted by, who wrote "Revert large changes that introduced a lot of advertorial and POV material about assitsive devices relevant o nly a narrow range of impairments." Basically, it looks like there was too much of a focus on vision impairment, as it looks like all of your additions focused specifically on that, which puts undue weight on the topic of assistive technology for blind persons as opposed to someone who may be impaired because they are crippled, have lost a limb, mental impairment, or so on. You also gave a lot of specific information about devices, including links to the product pages and price points - this is what made things seem like an advertisement for these items. All of this also goes into a lot of detail that isn't really necessary on Wikipedia, as it tends to take a very general look at things and only mention specific items if they are notable. (IE, if a certain app is notable enough for an article then it may be worthwhile to mention it briefly.) I hope that this helps! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:09, 11 December 2017 (UTC)


 * (Pinging too) Much of that material could probably be used to start a new separate article about assistive devices for visual impairment. That would probably be a far better use of your time and sources, but do take care not to promote specific products.  Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 07:03, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Oshwah. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Impossible Dreams seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   14:56, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
