Moving your sandbox

Hello, you've initially created your sandbox in the wrong place (article space). I've moved it to User:AncientWeapons/tullus hostilius sandbox. Thanks! Darylgolden^(talk) Ping when replying 01:45, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Tullus Hostilius

Hi! I saw that you're editing this article - I wanted to drop you some notes:

This needs to be edited for tone, as you're using a very casual writing style. Avoid using point of view statements, such as referring to something as famous, as that can be a bit subjective to the reader. What's famous to one is obscure to another, after all. The word famous is also a bit loaded, as there's inherent value attached to the word that makes it non-neutral as well.

Avoid using "we", "you", and similar wording - Wikipedia uses neutral third person.

This needs more sourcing to back up claims, as there are large portions that aren't sourced.

Don't use broad, sweeping statements unless they're widely held as true and there is sourcing to back it up. Even then it's often better to either attribute this or to be more specific, as sweeping statements tend to be imprecise and vague.

I hope this all helps! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:24, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
