[edit]

The aim for the content is in the right direction. I think the font you used was a bit too big for what we are trying to accomplish on a wikipedia page. I used closer to a size twelve font and it seemed to fit a bit better. You may also want to check out the help button on our wikipedia dashboard so you can format it in the right way. That will make it look more professional.

I think your article did a great job of introducing the reader to Yeni y Nan. You had some good, solid sources that will help with the credibility of the wikipedia page. Yeni y Nan were very amazing artists who used body art as a medium to express themselves and I think you showcased that really well so far. I like how you begin with the three common themes in their artwork, this allows for the reader to get a taste of what their artwork is without reading the entirety of the article. I was impressed with the fact that that was not their real names and I thought that was a nice "fun fact" to include. I was also impressed with your writing style, you did a good job of introducing the topic in an unbiased tangible way.

I would suggest, like I said earlier to make the font smaller, and to also structure it as if it was the real wikipedia page. I actually had trouble with figuring out how to make it look like the real thing, but then I asked for help on the Wikipedia dashboard and that helped me format it correctly. We actually have a designated person assigned to our class named Shalor and she can help you with any questions you may have. It is definitely an advantage that we have her here to help us with this project. She has sent me how to guides that have helped me format my page.

I would suggest formatting it to show their real names in the introduction box, and also include all of the other fun facts about them such as their: nationality, ethnicity, spouses etc. I would also suggest citing each sentence directly, that will make it more credible and easier to follow where you got your information from. This makes it more credible. For me I had trouble finding multiple credible sources, but if you cite each sentence correctly with where you found the information then it should not matter how many sources you get. If you go in the top left hand corner there is a tab that says "Templates" and then you can highlight the sentence you want to cite and then you can cite it directly after that specific sentence you wrote.

Once you get the formatting down the information should flow easier. I think you are on the right track in regards to the info, but just the formatting will make a huge difference when reading it.

Like I said, I think the most important thing to change would be the formatting and citing sources. Once you are on the right track with that it should be easy to put all the information into your page. Maybe take another look at the training modules, that also helped me. I know they may be boring at times but if you sit through them they will show you the correct way to do things.

I found that my article may need to flow a bit better as well, I am having trouble coming up with fluid and important categories for my wikipedia page, and since you do not have any titled "categories" that makes it easier for you to be creative in how you structure the page.

I really like how you incorporated the "Notable Works" section because I think that is important for any artist on wikipedia to have. Yeni y Nan are well known for a reason so I think it is very wise to include a notable works section. I would also suggest adding in where their work may be showcased/exhibited. You could make a section called Publications/Exhibitions (Whatever you see fit).

Take everything I said with a grain of salt, I think you are on the right track and just need to fine tune the formatting.
