I plan to update and add to the lead section of the article. The article mentions how they recently were involved in a violent confrontation, so I want to make sure to elaborate slightly on that and make sure that part of the lead section has been updated. I want to add sources for the 'Politics' paragraph of the article because it has no external or internal links in it. Also check grammar in the article and make sure everything makes sense. Review the sources and delete any unsourced material. The article has a lot of references for such a short article, so I question if they're all being used. Those are all the edits I plan to make on this article.

proposal feedback
Thanks for sharing your proposal. This seems like a solid, substantial plan. If you're going to add Wikilinks, I suggest reviewing Wikipedia's guidance on that before you start.

Please let me know if you need any help evaluating sources or working with the Wikipedia formatting. -KS (DeerJerky (talk) 21:43, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Reflection on my first edit
Editing an article for Wikipedia was really fun, even though I couldn't find too much to edit on the article. On line 19, I edited proper spacing to a sentence that made the article look unprofessional. On line 30 I edited a sentence that didn't have a period at the end of it. On line 69, I fixed a sentence that said "Mbarikam or Ikam or Teekum" and changed it to "Mbarikam, Ikam or Teekum". Just some minor grammar edits i thought could improve the article. Lastly, I edited the "Politics" section of the article and found a source for that entire paragraph. It looked like the entire paragraph happened to be copy and pasted from that website onto Wikipedia or vice versa (reference 7 is the source). When I made my proposal I thought editing would be less complicated than it actually was. Things that looked wrong in the article didn't end up being wrong once I went in and tried to edit the article. Once you got into the editing portion of the page, it looked very overwhelming. But you got the hang of it once you started working with it. After doing this assignment it really opened my eyes on how easy it is to change an article in Wikipedia. It was very quick and easy, which is kind of scary because anything can be edited. Learning how to cite and article for Wikipedia was interesting. Overall, I had a great first experience editing for Wikipedia. And I can't wait to do more 'advanced' edits in the future if needed.
