Feedback on your article
[edit]Hello Roseddo, Thank you for writing your article in your sandbox! I have read the article and would like to give some feedback to improve your article to Wikipedia standards and customs. I especially will look if it meets the quality standards we have on Wikipedia. I standard look for a series of subjects that need improvement or are okay.
- Intro sentence: You try to put too much in the first sentence. Use the first sentence to mention the medium, author, his profession, his nationality, publication date, place of publication. Use the second sentence (and following sentences) for telling what the book is about.
- Links: Missing!
- Headers: Please check other Wikipedia articles, do not capitalise full headers. And use for the headers == Structure == instead of === Structure ===.
- References: A good start, but please use more references.
- Context/timeframe: Missing!
- How was the book received: Missing!
- Other: Please remove all the bold text in your article, including in the headers. Only use bold in the intro sentence. The second paragraph reads too much like a book report. This is not a book report but an encyclopedic article.
I hope you can implement this feedback to your sandbox article before our next meeting. Thanks! Romaine (talk) 10:58, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
- Hello Roseddo, Thank you for improving your article! Last week we specifically asked to make sure you add sources/references to your article, because that is one of the most important parts of a Wikipedia article. We also wanted to make sure the intro sentence/section is ready. Let's see how it is going now.
- Intro sentence: Good.
- Links: Good start, but a lot more are needed.
- Headers: Thank you for fixing the headers, but not everything was fixed. I changed some strange look to normal headers. Not needed to write the S as capital s: "The 1920s and Sexuality".
- References: Sufficient sources, but more are welcome.
- Context/timeframe: Good.
- How was the book received: Missing!
- Keep up the good work! Romaine (talk) 03:16, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
Hi Roseddo, The image you had requested to be scanned has been kept (and not deleted) because it is too simple to be copyrighted. I just added it to your sandbox article. Romaine (talk) 02:34, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
