Draft notes
[edit]Hi! I have some draft notes for you:
- Make sure to avoid terms like renowned, as these tend to be point of view terms and are seen as non-neutral, especially as they can be subjective to the reader. They can also come across as promotional, even if this wasn't your intent. It looks like this was the only term, however it's important to watch out for this.
- You should only bold the title in the lead sentence. It's generally unnecessary to bold other things when they show up for the first time in the article, unless they are particularly noteworthy.
- With tenses and periods of time, make sure that it's written in the past tense. Also avoid vague points of time such as "recently" since this is something that can become quickly outdated. It also poses an issue of updating, as there's not always a guarantee that someone will come and update it past that point.
- This needs coverage in independent, reliable sources. All of the sources are primary. While these can back up basic details, independent and reliable sources are needed to show where the museum is notable. The museum isn't automatically notable for existing, so it's necessary to add secondary, independent sources like newspaper coverage.
I hope this all helps! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:30, 16 October 2019 (UTC)
