April 18th Assignment

Possible articles for editing:

1. Decorah Beach, Wisconsin

There is nothing on the Talk page. On the main page, the only information is the geographical info. I would add see if I could find historical information about this location, things to do, tourism, etc.

2. Sizzling Sixteen

This is a book by one of my favorite mystery authors. There are "multiple issues with this page": the information relies too much on reference to primary sources, relies on a single source and doesn't meet Wiki's notability guideline for books. So I would see what I could do to help resolve the "multiple issues".

3. Victory Motorcycles

This page has a "multiple issue" problem as well. It states that the current page is written like an advertisement. There is too much personal reflection. I will try to see what other motorcycle manufacturers' pages look like and see if I can address the concern with this page.
