Good start, Marykate1! You do have a few formatting problems here. You don't need to include both regular text and a Wikilink linked to the same text in your writing. Simply make a Wikilink of your chosen text. Also, you only need to add your signature and time stamp one time when you make changes, not to every line. I need it just to get a general sense of what you completed your work, and it's something you'll also do when you post to article talk pages. Beyond that, any of these actual topics will work for you, but you'll need to consider of you want to work on the authors articles, articles on specific works by those authors, or both, in order to meet the requirements of the essay. You may have a bit more trouble working with Thomas Jefferson as an author, since he is much better known as a politician. Your contributions should stay more-or-les literary, and not purely historical or political. Dunbar will probably work best for you, probably because his article is the least developed and you will therefore have the most opportunities to contribute here. However, the ultimate topic is still up to you! Good luck! Nadinecross78 (talk) 18:26, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
