I have a mission for you girls!

Can we fix the Wikipedia page for lolita?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolita_fashion

It lacks information, decent sourcing and basically anything that could be useful to someone interested in the fashion.

I know, I know, someone who likes and is interested in lolita should be willing to go out of their way to do proper research; I agree and am certain it is true in most cases... but what of those who do not? Be it artists or inexperienced cosplayers, there are many who would definitely benefit from having a reasonable amount of information at their fingertips.

The most important information i think that needs to be inserted into the page are:
> the most defining characteristics need to be clarified
I believe this might prove helpful in curbing the association with fetish and sissy dresses, also. Things like the silhouette and information on it's importance
> expanded information on each style and derivatives
> examples of lolita-inspired styles
Here is a chance to disassociate with the non-lolita more thoroughly. If you feel particularly catty I am sure someone could write a well-referenced account of why Lolita is not the same as a certain musician's "adult-baby" ideal

More than anything else I feel like the page needs far more in terms of resources for the uninformed..
