I'm practicing contributing images and media files. I found this image of an adorable kitten. It looks like the one I saw outside my house earlier this evening. So cute!


Ivan Navarro Article Evaluation

[edit]

After reviewing our artist’s wiki article, here are the topics that I think we need to work on:

Introduction/Overview - currently it is concise & sourced. It could be lengthened and add another resource, but is acceptable as is. The training module says the overview should be detailed, clear, and easy to understand.

Life - this section could have more information and sources. There’s plenty of info on his life and background. We should also mention how his life experience reflects in his work. The training module says we should include balanced content. I think his life should have more information because it is the most important aspect. We should include other topics, but only mention essential details.

Add sections for significant pieces - I think each of us should select a piece that stands out to them. One, for example, could be the piece at the Nelson. Add a photo, describe the piece, summarize the meaning, and provide sources. The training module says we should have several headings and subheadings that are arranged chronologically or by themes.

Keep in mind - we should maintain a neutral tone & include plenty of reliable sources cited throughout the article and references section.

Evaluating Content

[edit]

I think everything in the article is relevant to the artist. Many points are briefly touched on, which can cause them to seem out of place. The points need to be elaborated on and sourced to appear more relevant. One thing that I find distracting about the article is the amount of run-on sentences. Overall, the article needs more information on each work and exhibition.

Evaluating Tone

[edit]

The article has a neutral tone, even in the artist quotes. I don't see any heavily biased claims. Nothing is overrepresented, simply because the article is short.

Evaluating Sources

[edit]

All of the links work. Each link supports the claims. The article lacks reliable sources. The sources seem neutral and factual, however we cannot only use articles found on the internet. The references section will benefit from adding books found in the Nelson's library and other scholarly sources.

Miscellaneous Training

[edit]

Paragraph: Set the style of your text. For example, make a header or plain paragraph text.

"You can also use it to offset block quotes."

A : Highlight your text, then click here to format it with bold, italics, etc. The “More” options allows you to underline (U), cross-out text (S), add code snippets ( { } ), change language keyboards (Aあ), and clear all formatting ( ⃠ ).

Links: Highlight text and push this button to make it a link.[1] The Visual Editor will automatically suggest related Wikipedia articles for that word or phrase. This is a great way to connect your article to more Wikipedia content. You only have to link important words once, usually during the first time they appear. If you want to link to pages outside of Wikipedia (for an “external links” section, for example) click on the “External link” tab. [1]

Cite: The citation tool in the Visual Editor helps format your citations. You can simply paste a DOI or URL, and the Visual Editor will try to sort out all of the fields you need. Be sure to review it, however, and apply missing fields manually (if you know them). You can also add books, journals, news, and websites manually. That opens up a quick guide for inputting your citations. Once you've added a source, you can click the “re-use” tab to cite it again.

  • Bullets: To add bullet points or a numbered list, click here.

Insert: This tab lets you add media, images, or tables.

Ω: This tab allows you to add special characters, such as those found in non-English words, scientific notation, and a handful of language extensions.
