[edit]Hello, CoopStine42, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; 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.

The Standing Rock Sioux and the Politics of Sacred Space. moved to draftspace
[edit]Thanks for your contributions to The Standing Rock Sioux and the Politics of Sacred Space.. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it reads like an essay, and needs formatting to comply with the Manual of Style. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. ~ Eejit43 (talk) 23:54, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
Your draft
[edit]
I'm sorry I didn't get back to you in time yesterday. I've moved your draft back to your sandbox.
Unfortunately, as it stands, what you have created isn't a Wikipedia article, it's an essay. While there may be content that might help improve the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation or the Dakota Access Pipeline protests articles, an article like "Land is Life: The Standing Rock Sioux and the Politics of Sacred Space" would never exist on Wikipedia.
I've linked to the Editing Wikipedia brochure. Please have a look at pages 7-9 to get a sense of what a Wikipedia article should look like. Then figure out what's missing from those other two articles, and see if you can improve them.
Also remember that everything you add to Wikipedia needs to be tied directly to a reliable source. After the statement, there should be a source. You can use a single source to support several sentences in a row, if it supports everything you say in those sentences, but you need to have at least one source per paragraph, and you shouldn't have any text after the final reference in a paragraph (because that content is effectively unsourced).
