Welcome!
[edit]Welcome Jfinlay8 (again!) to both Wikipedia and to COM482! You picked a great article in Visual metaphor and it seems is lots of room to improve. It seems like you have already made a little progress over on User:Jfinlay8/Visual metaphor. In any case, I'm looking forward to seeing watching the article develop over the next week. It seems like you're off to a good start. —mako๛ 14:25, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
Assignment #2 Intro
[edit]Hi Jordan- It's nice to meet you! I'm Toshie also taking COM 482. I didn't do a part of Assignment #2 where I was to practice communicating through Wikipedia, so this is my contribution :). I'm a senior majoring in Communications with a minor in Entrepreneurship. I hope this quarter is off to a great start for you! I'll see you around.

Feedback on your draft
[edit]Greetings Jfinlay8!
I just took a look at User:Jfinlay8/Visual metaphor. I think it looks great. I love the photos as well and I love that you found a free version in Commons already. I made a few edits to the article.
I had a few suggestions:
- Considering moving the "Rhetorical Uses" up first and then "Advertising Uses" afterward. It seems like the latter is superset of the former so it would make sense to introduce them in that order.
- I added a [citation needed] tag to one place. In general, you've added a bunch of new statements/facts/etc. That's great, of course! Each of these needs a reference and some don't have them. I assume this is because you have multiple facts that are supported by a single reference. If so, you can add it for the first claim/fact/sentence and then add a second citation to the same thing when you refer to it later.
Once you've done a final pass to clean up some of this stuff, please go ahead and move your changes over into the live version. I think with another pass, you'll be in really great shape! —mako๛ 18:59, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
