 A traditional essay is linear and without links. Traditional essays are written on separate pages and require the writer to use a step-by-step structure. The writer should not stray from this basic structure. Eliminating information that would normally be included in these structures could leave the reader confused and asking questions about information that should have been included. By researching a topic thoroughly a writer will have all the necessary information needed to write a efficient and informative essay. An essay should have a structure that includes all of the components below.
-*'''Introdution'''- the writer tells general information about a particular topic and the reason(s) why he has chosen it.
+*[[Introduction(essay)1 Introduction]]- This part encompasses the first paragraph. It will introduce the subject and will move from general to specific. The introduction can be the most intimidating part of the writing process. It is important for the introduction to remark clearly and pave the way for what is about to come. The writer should state the point and grab the reader’s interest in this paragraph.
-*'''Body'''- the main part of the essay, include the descriptions or explanations of what is given in the introduction details
-*'''Conclusion'''- the writer summarizes the information, gives the evaluation and make the final word what he thinks about the topic.[http://www.louisville.edu/~a0zait02/essay.html  traditional essays]
+*[[Body (writing)]]- This main part of the essay, include the descriptions or explanations of what is given in the introduction. The body should include at least 5 paragraphs, use a particular point of view, develop  the subject logically, and keep the reader's interest with detail. It should conclude by looking beyond.
+*[[Conclusion]]- The writer offers closure and summarizes or ties the essay together in this final paragraph. This paragraph should be brief and point beyond the limited scope of the esssay. The writer makes the final word and writes what they personally think about the topic.[http://www.louisville.edu/~a0zait02/essay.html  traditional essays].
