Notes

Hi! I have some notes:

Offhand you're off to an excellent start with your draft. It's pretty neutral and has a lot of information. The main issue that I see is that the article needs more sourcing to help back up claims and establish notability, especially sourcing that is independent of Dr. Helper. Now I did see that you are/were scheduled to hold an interview with Dr. Helper, but I must warn you that interviews or emails between the editor and individual are typically not seen as something that can be used because they can't be verified in the way that Wikipedia wants. This goes over it a little.

That said, I think that this is still a very good start! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:12, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

After reviewing your draft I want to start off by saying that you are doing a wonderful job so far! To be honest it wasn't exactly easy to find mistakes within the draft other than adding a few more sources to back up claims that are being made. I'm not sure how incorporating interviews into your piece works completely so I would ask our professor or the person working with us on Wikipedia! minor fixes. Great start. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blakec25 (talk • contribs) 19:13, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
