Spirit Cave mummy

Hi - I see you used one of our articles as a source. We can't do that as our articles aren't "reliably published". See WP:VERIFY. For this subject we need academic sources. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 15:01, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review

Hi! This is Sarah W. with my summary of your peer review. There are more details here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Lbaloga/Spirit_Cave_mummy/Tranquillitatis317_Peer_Review

I think overall this article is off to a good start. There are a lot of ways to go here and a lot of information that can be added. I think the sources need revisited, especially the allthingsinteresting.com and the oldest.org ones. The sources they pull from seem viable, but the articles themselves do not. I think there are probably some great sources out there since the article was last updated, I'd consider searching jstor or google scholar to find more. I think that the sections are good, but maybe writing them as more paragraph and explanation than hefty sentence points would make it easier to follow and understand. (like explain a bit the area found, or the tech used in locating, the couple and their history). The image you're adding is awesome, and fits in all the things that wiki requires of them.
