Should I also wrap in quotation marks?

Also all known imperial powers have also exercised colonialism. Therefore, I will edit colonialism as an essential attribute. Olliedixon148 (discuss • contribs) 15:04, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Good point Ollie. This is not obvious and tomorrow we will discuss different forms of imperialism and see to what extent it is colonialism. I would say that colonialism is the "settlement" form of imperialism but that imperialism is not always colonialism as it can take more subtle forms. So, I would support colonialism as a non-essential attribute. I will come with examples around the Monroe doctrine vs. the good neighbour's policy. If you can, try to come to the session with real-world examples that support your view. Evarenon (discuss • contribs) 16:08, 30 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Caroline and Muyao, you have copied and pasted the definition from Britanica encyclopedia without citing. This is plagiarism. Please produce your own definition or else you need to properly cite your sources Evarenon (discuss • contribs) 15:53, 30 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Please have a look at your definitions overall and try to make a coherent parapgraph out of them. It still looks too much like separated unrelated bits. Evarenon (discuss • contribs) 16:01, 30 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Leewenyi, your contribution is not a definition, it is an answer to a research question about the impact of imperialism in education. Coudl you please displace your paragraph in the section of discussion and relates it explicitly to a research question? Evarenon (discuss • contribs) 16:06, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
