Improving Cyberbullying
This is where I will come up with ideas to improve the article Cyberbullying with my partner, Taylor Talk about movies that have come out regarding social media Most common types of social media - where it happens the most, which social media site How this could be a crime - maybe harassment or abuse Cyberbullying prevention What can help cyberbullying?

Rough Draft
"Cyberbullying" has become common in today's world. Cyberbullying is when someone, typically teens, bully or harass others on social media sites. Cyberbullying allows bullies to easily and anonymously harass victims online. They do this by flaming, harassing, outing, exclusion, impersonation, and stalking. Though this form of bullying is not physical, it can be very traumatizing to the victim. The most common places where Cyberbullying occurs is Ask.fm, Instagram, and Facebook. On Ask.fm people can anonymously sign up and say anything hurtful things without people knowing their true identity. On Instagram, many females are "rated" and comments on posts can be negative. There are many harsh comments on "selfies" on Facebook which have contributed to the Cyberbullying epidemic. People cyberbully for the same reasons they bully - jealously, insecurity, etc. The call to action against Cyberbullying has become more prevalent. People have realized the dangers today behind social media bullying. There are movies out that are making people more aware such as Cyberbully or "The Duff". These films teach about Cyberbullying and makes those who could be affected more aware. Also, prevention efforts have begun in schools and online to prevent further bullying. Becoming more aware of cyberbullying, makes one more aware of the warning signs and what to do when cyberbullying is detected. Some states such as Florida, California, and Missouri have developed state laws against Cyberbullying. California has the Safe Place to Learn Act and also has a law that states "the use of an electronic device to cause someone to fear for their life" can be charged with a misdemeanor which can be punishable to up to one year in prison. In Florida, the "Jeffrey Johnson Stand Up for All Students Act" prohibits any type of bullying and does speak on cyberbullying. In Missouri, anyone who violently threatens someone over social media can be convicted with a Class A misdemeanor, but if the victim is seventeen years or younger,they can be convicted with a Class D felony. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Callie.davis22 (talk • contribs) 14:40, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

The information added is reliable and unbiased. I would discuss more about what people say when they are cyber bullying. Overall good but needs a little more information. Mycahhaynes (talk) 15:16, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the suggestionCallie.davis22 (talk) 15:35, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

Draft Review
You should add more information about what cyberbullying is and all the different ways people bully others online. There should also be more added about how cyberbullying is a danger to young people and how it affects them. You could discuss all the ways that cyberbullying can be prevented and how to spread the word about these preventions. Overall, this is a great draft. Skylarfogerty (talk) 15:17, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

Article Draft
Callie, You've got some good information in your draft. Be sure to cite each of your sources within the text. I'm concerned about the credibility of your sources--one is really just a blog and biased. You should find some more factual, and less biased information in articles from the databases. Also check your draft carefully for mechanical errors before your publish--small errors are hard to spot.JAirhart 20:00, 25 March 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Airhartcomp (talk • contribs)


 * Do I need to cite it in my draft too? I was just planning to cite in the final article. I am struggling with moving articles from the database to wikipedia. I haven't figured out how to exactly yet. Callie.davis22 (talk) 14:01, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
