Thanks for editing schools in Massachusetts...
Hello! I looked at what you did at Charter School (Massachusetts). This is how Wikipedia is supposed to work, with the addition of statements followed by citations.

Just for background and context, you might like to check the viewership page for this article to see that between 500-1000 people check this content monthly. I use this kind of information to plan how much work I should consider investing in changing the article.

Jumping into the article itself, it seems likely to me that this article has not been copyedited. There is bloat in the article, probably because one writer contributed a chunk of this, other writers added other parts, and no one has smoothed over the mix of all this information. At this point more information could be added, or the article could be copyedited, cut, and rearranged. In any case, there is a lot of source material to examine here.

Beyond this article, look at the bottom of the page to the "categories" to see that this article is a member of Category:Charter schools in Massachusetts. In that category, all the charterschool articles are being developed. The long term best case for all of these is that what is common to all of them is put into this general article, with this article linking out to all of them and all of these sub-articles linking into this one for context.

If you have interest in going deeper then you can message me on-wiki or write me through the course mailing list. I am here! Thanks for participating in the class and contributing in the assignments.  Blue Rasberry  (talk)  17:51, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
