Hello, Barborale, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

Response

Hi! I have some notes for you:

• I recommended that one of your group mates working on this page create a section on feminist movements and groups in China, with specific movements and groups having a subsection under that main header. I recommend that here as well, so you two can work this out together later.

• Don't make any judgement calls on China such as "stressed how ignorant the Chinese government is about feminist movements". The goal of Wikipedia isn't to stress one viewpoint over another but to provide a general overview and let the reader decide. If this was in the source material then it must be attributed to the person stating this, to avoid it coming across as Wikipedia making its own opinion. You also want to avoid scare quotes around the words “criminal suspects. It's better to say that "they're still considered criminal suspects by the Chinese government" since that's more to the point and attributes the term.

Other than that, this is definitely a good start. It just needs some fine tuning. You may want to think about eventually expanding this into its own article in the future, if you're interested. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:00, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
