Peer Review: There's tons of good information here, and it looks like there's a citation for each fact. Great. Also, good work on linking to other relevant Wikipedia pages in your text. Some of the citations themselves seem irregular, being the same size as the text, and not superscript like other citations on Wikipedia. This may be a formatting/technical error, but should probably be fixed before it goes live. Should there be a citation for "youngest member of the society was Christopher Abbey (15)"? The style of the history paragraph would be good for an essay on the topic, it may be a bit less suited to an encyclopedia. Overall, it seems like it should be condensed, probably by leaving out information that is less important to the topic, distilling it to a few critical points. You could also break the history up into a subsection or two, which would make it much more digestible. The history portion sort of overwhelms the article as it stands. Plenty of room for improving the other sections to match, though! Evanmayer1 (talk) 17:48, 6 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]


Peer Review for L5 Colonization: Hi Jacob, nice work! The information that you have so far provided for L5 Colonization is both extensive and easy to follow, and as such I would consider that to be the hallmark of a good Wikipedia article. However, it is a bit concerning that you have as of yet not included any references for any of the claims that you have made in this article. Additionally, the lack of links to other articles that are pertinent to your content on this page, ranging from broader topics like NASA to the wikipedia page of Gerard O'Neill, while not necessarily concerning, would certainly be useful in contextualizing the importance and theories associated with L5 Colonization with other figures and institutions that are tangentially related to the topic. As a minor note, I think your L5 Colonization section here does a great job of introducing the subject, but it does not warrant its own section heading. Instead, you should make this section the introduction to the article, and then have the History, Significance, etc. sections come after it. Other than that, I think you did a pretty good job!

Peer Review for L5 Colonization: Hey, this is nice. However, I'm not sure if it would be better to make a new article, or to merge this information into the already preexisting article. This would make a good "Background" section, or "History" section. VjiaoBlack (talk) 19:03, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
