Notes

Decided last minute to add extra sections that I felt were necessary to Eva's importance as an artist.

Sections

Do you have any sections you'd like to add to this article? Does the information seem helpfully and lucidly divided up to you? Remember, "outline" doesn't refer to how you're going to carry out your work; it refers to how the information will be presented on the Wikipedia page. Hope this make sense? Please ask if you have any questions. Aolivex (talk) 16:05, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Adding structure to Eva Hesse

Hi Altb478. I've made some small changes to your draft. In order to structure your biography like this or this (for an example with no explicit structure outside the prose), think about progressing through the most important facts for a reader, right from the first sentence.

When you land on an article for someone you haven't read about before, you'll want to know their name, about when they lived and what they are known for. Right off the bat. You'll see a lot of wikipedia articles have "ledes" or introductory sections which summarize the basic details of the article. In almost every lede, you'll see the first few sentences to the same kind of work.

Start with that, then proceed to important works or her career or her personal life as makes sense in the article, but I think starting out with those basics and letting the article hang on that will help.

Also you don't need to have individual sections (I created them by starting a new line and adding ==Header text== (rather than bolding them). You can write a short, correct and comprehensive (as the sources allow) biography of someone in a few paragraphs, without breakout sections for "career" or what have you. On the plus side, if writing it that way works for you, you can always add in sections later as the article is expanded. I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.
