Recent Edit[edit]

Hello all!

I have contributed an update to this article by adding a number of things including a background, explanations for some key texts within the collection, an itemized list of the works included, and an addition of some new sources. The texts chosen are in no particular order, and since this work is rather new I was unsure which to include. If anyone would like to add more explanations for the various works, please do so.

I tried to include as much as I could from the original article. Although the edit history will show I deleted what was there, I originally copied the article into my sandbox and worked based off of the original published article. I also tried to use similar or the same sources as the person who originally made this.

If anything is out of order or needs to be fixed, please let me know or feel free to edit yourselves! My intent was to try and improve this article to the best of my ability. As a new Wikipedia user I'm still learning all the tricks, so I'm happy to change anything that's needed. Finally, I'll be adding in the cover for the book as soon as possible - I had a slight issue when trying to do that in my sandbox.

Hi, Jozettebelmont, and thanks for your efforts to improve the article!

It's fine for you to use your sandbox: don't worry about that. As you become more familiar with Wikipedia editing, you'll probably become used to editing articles directly (ideally, continuing to preview your changes before committing them). You will also likely find yourself making smaller, more granular changes with each edit: i.e. multiple small edits instead of one or two larger edits. This way, if you make a mistake that you later want to undo, or if another editor disagrees with a change that you made, then potentially that one change can be rolled back without affecting any of your other edits. In the meantime, by all means use your sandbox, and don't feel that you ever have to give it up altogether, either: the sandboxes exist precisely so that editors at any level of experience have a place in which to work on drafts and to try out unfamiliar markup or what-have-you.

Thanks again, and good wishes. It's great to have you aboard! Zazpot (talk) 22:57, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
