It took my a while to figure out how to add pictures but I think the result looks pretty nice!
reference format
[edit]Be sure to get your references into proper citation format. The tutorials we used in class can help with this. The template in Edit Source makes it pretty easy, as does the Automatic function in Visual Editor. Aschuet1 (talk) 15:58, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
Things to improve on
[edit]Format/Genre
some overlap in some sections
Prose sometimes flattering tone awkward prose at times - first segment incorrect use of semi-colon A little repetitive under the pop culture and men and women's fashion. "When all designers had their take" -maybe remove Notability Good sources, delete the 2nd "Why Kurt Cobain was one..." if it's a copy
Verifiability Citation information missing in some sources
What's missing? Could explain last quote in 'Origins' Maybe mention TV and movies that were influential - explain "The Rachel" hair cut origin/why it's called that - is it part of grunge style?
Prose' -origins could use some more information -repetition of info in some sections
what is missing? -opening statement -too much direct quoting -pictures! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anettemgonzalez (talk • contribs) 00:49, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
What remains to be done?
[edit]I think more information on fashion designers who made grunge fashion popular back in the 90s and now would be nice to add. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anettemgonzalez (talk • contribs) 05:11, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
Another may be to expand on the Fashion from the 1990s, it was difficult to find information that was not from pinterest or an online store.Alyssacm (talk) 12:53, 24 April 2017 (UTC)Alyssacm
I would agree with Alyssa that it was difficult to find unbiased, reliable information at times. Marc Jacobs Perry Ellis Fashion Show came up more times than I could count but I was disappointed because I couldn't find an interview that held much content about his inspiration. Also, a lot of resources commented on women's fashion but men's fashion was forgotten. Our article is small, but a great deal of research and discussion went into it. I think this a good launching board for anyone else who shares a passion for 90's grunge fashion. Eespino1 (talk)

The result of the move request was: Moved. And I will hist merge it as suggested. — Amakuru (talk) 20:28, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
1990s Grunge Fashion → Grunge fashion – There are no other "Grunge fashion" articles and the topic is small enough for a single article to address all periods. "Grunge fashion" is currently a redirect to the Grunge music/subculture article. That main article is over 13k words, so I believe worthwhile for a separate fashion article, in line with Punk fashion. Reidgreg (talk) 21:42, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- Support per nom. Seraphim System (talk) 21:59, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- Support, but Grunge fashion has a substantial page history so I'm not sure what needs to be done there. – Joe (talk) 12:12, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- The histories of Grunge fashion and 1990s Grunge Fashion could be histmerged since the former's history is all pre-2010 and the latter's is only from this year. If this move request is successful, I urge the closing admin to do so. — AjaxSmack 14:50, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
- I was going to make the move as 4 people are for it, but per Ajax I'll leave it to an admin.L3X1 (distænt write) )evidence( 20:19, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
