Great work![edit]

Hi, Mhxelamh! You have put together a very strong proposal. You have identified an important topic, as well as an article that needs some work. The sources look like a good set of references to start with. Have you looked for any books on the topic? This could help you jump start your work, too. Keep up the good work - I look forward to reading a draft of your edits soon. Prof.Vandegrift (talk) 15:29, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A pie for you![edit]

Sandbox feedback[edit]

The lead in paragraph of your article reads a lot like an essay and not quite so much as an encyclopedia. Eliminating the names of sources used is an easy fix for adapting the style of the article.

I see that you're making connections between violence in youth in the student section. However, I think that it is also important to consider that not all youth are in school. How can you work youth into other sections of the article and expand the definition of youth beyond that of only students?

In the trafficking section, I think the article would benefit from a quick explanation of trafficking or a hyperlink to the trafficking wikipedia page. Just so those unfamiliar with the term will know what the rest of the section is in reference to.

Do youth see benefits from being in gangs in Guatemala? Are there social and economic ties that make gangs seem like a good idea to many?

Good! I see you've started a see also section. As you move forward, remember to keep adding articles to the list.
