Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Asagarcia, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.
I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Feedback request
[edit]Hi. Adam is off today, but I'm sure he'll see this tomorrow. In the interim, is there something urgent I can help you with? Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 22:35, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

[edit]Hi, Asagarcia. I took a look at your draft. I need your help with a few things and then I think I can get this ready for the mainspace.
- You have references listed at the end of the page. On Wikipedia, we use inline citations, so a reader can tell which claim came from what source. If I wanted to verify a claim I'd have to read every source in the draft. I've added a citation here so you can see what I mean.
- This is a good biographical narrative for Shepard, but wikipedia articles are written and structured differently from those types of essays. See our handout on editing biographies for a good sense of the tone changes you'll want to make.
Let me know when you've updated the citations and I can help edit the article to match for tone. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:52, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
