What?

I'm not very clear on what happened to this article. Some help cleaning it up so I can actually decipher what's going on? 137.99.32.223 (talk) 03:01, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Regarding this edit http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Feature_story&curid=6866893&diff=459620860&oldid=459620726

I have reverted this addition a third time. I am sure it is an attempt to make a genuine contribution to the encyclopaedia but unfortunately it smacks far too much of a personal opinion. To be an acceptable part of the article, it needs to cite some sources for the points it makes - journalism textbooks, for example. See WP:VERIFY for information on the reasons for this; WP:CITE for information on how to cite sources; and WP:NOTESSAY. Thanks. Barnabypage (talk) 13:03, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Adding new sections?

Thinking of adding additional paragraphs to the article that support the structuring of a Feature Story. Ideas include: "Transforming Ideas into Features" and "Obtaining Reliable Resources." These sections would contribute to the direction and purpose of writing a feature effectively. I have accumulated some reliable and relevant sources to support these potential sections.
