The Black Speculative Arts Movement (BSAM)
I do not wish to discourage you from contributing, but phrases like "The movement is an aesthetic and originative practice which meshes African diasporic cosmologies with technology or science for the purpose of interpreting, engaging, designing, and ultimately altering reality to re-imagine the past, the contested present, and to act as a driving force with which to shape the future through a speculative lens." qualify as word-salad verging on WP:PROMO. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia requires articles to be not only stated neutrally, but also to be intelligible to the average reader. Kleuske (talk) 21:35, 28 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Ha, "word salad". Okay. The sentence is a bit long, I will break it up and put it in layaman's terms. Also, just to save you messaging me repeatedly, it was my understanding that this "sandbox" is a practice space. I am currently working on the article and will make many edits/changes before I publish. Thanks. Christinamonique93 (talk) 21:38, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * It is a practice space. The above is a bit of constructive criticism, trying to prevent a well-meaning beginner from drifting off into the academic wastelands of freshly minted neologisms and excessive adjectives. Just to save you some disappointments down the road. Kleuske (talk) 21:43, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I am just as critical of opaque academic jargon as the next guy. As I said, this is a running draft. Thanks. Christinamonique93 (talk) 21:49, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Ok. Have fun. Kleuske (talk) 21:49, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Also, I'm not sure what happened but it seems I have just tried to edit the bit you provided constructive criticism on & it seems I am not able to.
 * This is the message I am getting:
 * "Someone else has changed this page since you started editing it, resulting in an edit conflict."
 * I'm just practicing & this is making it harder. ha. Christinamonique93 (talk) 21:51, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia is a collaborative effort and User:Drmies decided to lend you a hand. You can check what's going on by pressing the "History"-tab. Don't panic. It's mostly harmless. Kleuske (talk) 21:56, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I would have waited until I was done writing/editing if I had known the collaboration began in this practice space. As I said, I'm mostly trying to figure out how to use this interface. Christinamonique93 (talk) 21:58, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Do you mind instructing me on how I can see what that user helped with? Christinamonique93 (talk) 21:59, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Go to the page in question and press the "view history"-tab. Then select the versions you want to compare (using the radio-buttons) and click "diff" (difference) link and it will show you the changes made. (it looks like this). Kleuske (talk) 22:03, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Awesome! Thank you! Christinamonique93 (talk) 22:04, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Draft:Black Speculative Arts Movement (BSAM) into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — SamX &#91;talk · contribs&#93; 17:48, 26 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi,
 * I just deleted what I copied and pasted, it was just the date the show ran from, a list of the artists and a quote from the exhibition's linear notes. Thanks for the heads up. Christinamonique93 (talk) 18:29, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
