Wikipedia 
Wikipedia is, (at times) very simple. 
It does require a lot of thinking and patients especially if you like your work to be done well or for it to look professional. My first time using Wikipedia I was extremely lost. When I see a lot of words my mind tends to feel nervous. But, once you get used to it everything starts to make sense. Nevertheless, things are getting difficult just I asked for help ans I'am still confuse. In summation working with Wikipedia is not easy It requires hard work.

Something Special I Carry in My Purse
 Unlike people who carry extra supplies(pens, pencils), gum etc. I carry my bestfriend's memoir. My bestfriend (when she was alive) never left my side we were what you would call inseperable. We even worked together. When she passed with cancer 3 years ago. I promised myself I would always carry something that reminded me of her, so why not a better item than her memoir? To me it's like I still have her with me, she was like the little sister I never had. And I will always love her, This s\is why I carry her memoir with me at all times.

The Theme of 'The Fall of the House of Usher'
The Fall of the House of Usher” is the story of a sick man whose fears manifest themselves through his supernatural, sentient family home. (Sentient as in able to perceive things.) The story seeks through both physical and noetic (mental) illness, and the effect that such afflictions have on the people most proximate to those who are ill. One interpretation is that much of the seeming “madness” of the main character does turn out, in fact, to be the cause of authentically supernatural events. That is, he’s not insane – his house genuinely is preyed upon, and his sister authentically is back from her 'grave'. Another interpretation is that the madness authentically is a part of his imagination.

Wikipedia Topic:
The setting of the story 'Revelation' By Fannery O' Connor is on both a doctors office and a farm. In the beginning of the short story, the climax took place in the doctors office as Mary Grace lashed out on Mrs. Turpin telling her the following ;"Go back to hell where you came from, you old wart hog," Need I say that part of the short story was very interesting. The second setting is on the farm where Mrs. Turpin was in a deep ponder on whether her fear was true that what Mary Grace's said was the message of god.

The Fall of the House of Usher
 A character from The Fall of the House of Usher that I personally liked was the narrator who was tending/aiding Richard Usher (his boyhood friend). The narrator has a very descriptive mind, never bland to say the least. He seems to have a caring and understanding. While the narrator was with Richard he helped him bury his sister and he even tried to cheer Richard up. That's the image the narrator showed me and that's what left me captivated;he seems to be naturally kind.

Wikipedia Topic
 Mrs. Turpin, a Southern Belle, Christian and an egoistical lady. Mrs.Turpin is the exact example of the 'Wicked Witch of the West' never the less her character intrigued me. It's as if Mrs. Turpin is the 'Wretched Prom Queen' that no one would dare cross;thus, she would think as if she were what made the world go round. My favorite part of course was when Mary Grace set Mrs. Turpin in her place. She clearly needed a wake up call because in our world today we (some of us) do not accept being belittled or humiliated. All in all, I learned that we should recognize our place and keep certain things to ourselves.
