Peer Evaluation by Dan
[edit]Hi Abraham,
Education in Ghana
I think what you're going to add to the history section is really good. Thinking about the context in which education took place in the country adds great background, however I noticed you only used two sources throughout your addition to the page. While that isn't bad on its own and the sources look great, you have other good sources you could synthazise for information from you havent used yet. You also said about this artilce that it could use more sources and working links for much of the article, which would be another great thing to do for this article.
Community Education
You mention in evaluating the page that Community Education implies global community yet it only has listed examples from Wisconsin and the UK, so its great that you bring an example from Canada teaching about Community Education. You only have one sentence on it though and I think it could be expanded quite a lot, such as what the cirriculum is about and if it has been effective or not. I also think providing more global iniatives (UN, WHO, WB, etc) examples of Community Education would strengthen this page a lot. Your parent parciptation new section is good too, but it alsos suffers from not enough put into it, if you're going to make a new section you should develop it much more. Again like the last page you note that this one lacks sources, which would be a good thing to add.
You have really good ideas and starting places for what you want to add to these articles, but you need to develop them more. You talked about adding lots of sources to both the articles which I didn't see progress of on your talk page (you could have edited it onto mainspace and I'm just missing it so my bad if that's the case) and haven't developed your contributions to the fullest they could be. You also have at least 4 unused sources you found that I think would make really good contributions to these articles. Feel free to message me on canvas or Wiki if you have questions about my feedback. Dguar97 (talk) 21:58, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
WikiProject Africa
[edit]Hi Abraham Martei Martey,
I saw your work on articles related to Africa and wanted to say hello, as I work in the topic area too. If you haven't already, you might want to watch the WikiProject Africa talk page, which is a noticeboard for Wikipedia's Africa coverage. It's a great place to ask questions, collaborate, discuss style/structure precedent, and stay informed about Africa-related content. Take a look for yourself!
And if you're looking for other juicy places to edit, consider adopting a cleanup category or participating in one of our current formal discussions.
Feel free to say hi on my talk page and let me know if these links were helpful (or at least interesting). Hope to see you around. czar 13:13, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
Kim's Peer Review
[edit]Hi Abraham,
Dan mentions a lot of key points like making sure you have enough sources.
For your Area article, since you write about Canada under the Qualification section, you might consider what is being done within community education in the US/attitudes about it in the US. Moreover, I think the Qualification section discusses more about what qualifies teachers/programs to participate in community education rather than which instances of its implementations make it a qualified resource. However, this should deter you from including the piece about Canada. Instead you should elaborate on how exactly community education is valuable. Another question I have is its prominence in the US and other territories given that the list from “ Youth participation” seems very Eurocentric?
For your second contribution to the Area article, I think you should add more information. The sentence that you have right now, while excellent at capsulating everything, should have more background information as well. A new subsection should not stand alone with 1 sentence. I would change the grammar of your sentence as well to use a colon rather than semicolon! Perhaps you can add more on how and what parents can support financially and materially, how to foster communication between parents and schools, etc.
Overall, good job of contributing useful information to these already information-heavy pages and finding a hole in which you can inject yourself in! Kimdo1 (talk) 01:37, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
