Emotion and the stockmarket
[edit]Hi, you appear to have initially submitted an article to the request for feedback page (changes link). I have now moved the article to your personal test page (User:Jinxedup/Sandbox). Without going into too much detail, the major issues that jumped out at me are: (1) The tone It is written in the style of a personal essay, and not in the third person with a formal encyclopedia page; and (2) It is missing sections, which help break up the material. Try to take a look at the links I've given you, as well as the advice at the your first article link above to help address these.
Also, since you submitted that article back in February and do not appear to have been back to Wikipedia since, I am going to propose that the article be deleted. It can be restored either by copying your changes from the above link, or by the contacting the person who deleted the sandbox page. If you have any questions feel free to contact me at my talk page. -Optigan13 (talk) 03:26, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
