Notes
[edit]Hi! I reviewed your draft and had some notes. My main two notes would be that this needs more sourcing to back up claims and to make sure that you don't write in a too casual tone.
Be careful of things like "most commonly" without sourcing it very well - this is a phrase that I'd directly attribute to a person or organization, such as "according to This Person, although the terms space age and space race are most commonly believed to have began on October 4, 1957 with the launch of Sputnik 1 by the Soviet Union October 4, 1957 with the launch of Sputnik 1 by the Soviet Union, they actually...". Terms like revolutionary should also be attributed to the person making the claim.
With sourcing, make sure that you're using the best possible source and also check to see who is writing the source, who published it, and so on. You also don't want to rely too heavily on one source, even if it's a good one, as a variety of sourcing would help ensure that the article has a good depth of coverage.
I hope that this helps! I think that you have a good start here! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:43, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
Hello! After reviewiing your draft I just want to start off by saying great job so far. Your page is on its way to be a great one! The one piece of advice that I think you should look into is adding more information under Elon Musk's Space X. This seems to be a very hot topic in todays world between a wide variety of age groups. There is ton of imformation you could add so do some more research and make sure you add sources! Good Luck! User: Blakec25 —Preceding undated comment added 19:27, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
