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.

class evaluation
[edit]Hello, I'm your peer reviewer for class. Vera Mae Green looks good. I think you could add in more links to other wiki pages. Maybe expand on what exactly a Carribeanist is. On the ABA website http://aba.americananthro.org/vera-mae-green-1928-1982/ there's a list of her work and it may be worthwhile to look them up online and get a better feel for her expertise and areas of interest within Carribbean cultures. Also the information in the sections you have now area bit repetitive but I think with more research that should no longer be so apparent. Bd7941a (talk) 20:24, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
External links
[edit]Hi, I just wanted to let you know that external links should be placed at the bottom of articles, not at the top.★Trekker (talk) 09:47, 14 February 2017 (UTC)
