Choosing an article

I looked at the articles you listed on User:Rantang7136/Choose an Article. My preference would probably be for First Historical Archives of China (because it's *so* underdeveloped it seems like it should be easy to improve or Hainan cuisine because it strikes me an extremely important topic that weirdly only has two sentences of text (!!!) plus a long list of dishes. Like, it's has a lot of information but it has nearly no text. Both would be very easy to improve.

It seems like you are moving forward on the Peter Hessler. It's developed enough that I guess that it will be more difficult to raise a quality class since it's very clearly a Start-class article, not a Stub. But really, I trust you to be able to take any of these articles and do great stuff with it. So it's totally up to you. —mako ๛ 07:41, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your feedback! I decided to go with the First Historical Archives of China as you suggested. Rantang7136 (talk) 23:18, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
