Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 21:13, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
Excellent choice; that article is indeed in need of loving care :-)
You asked for advice on Talk:Kitchen. All right.
First thing is to get good references. That'll require some research; I don't have one at hand either. We'd need references on the history of the bed as well as on the history of the bedroom. The article Bed gives a nice overview, but, alas, no really useful sources. The various types of bedding may also be of marginal interest. One source I've found is Pascal Dibie, Ethnologie de la chambre a coucher, ISBN 2864243679 .[1] It's in French; I don't know if there's an English edition. The architecture department at your University should be able to help you hunt down useful publications; and the staff at your University library might also know where to look and what to search for. Or perhaps ask at WP:RD/H whether someone knows good sources covering this topic.
When writing the article, we'll have to keep in mind a global viewpoint. That complicates matters quite a bit; development in the U.S. probably differed quite a bit from Europe, or South America, or Japan.
One will have to be careful with generalizations; as always with homes, the development went differently and at different speeds for the rich and the common people. Kings may have slept under feather duvets centuries before these became common household items.
I would start improving the article by directly filling out Bedroom#History bit by bit. I would not prepare it all privately at User:Themustafa25/History of the Bedroom sandbox. Why? First, the Bedroom article is so small and poor, that you run no danger accidentally making it worse or removing bits someone else thought essential. Second, the chance that other people will join and help is much greater. Third, there's no hassle with merging a privately prepared version with the changes other people may make in the meantime at the main article. But ultimately it's your choice; if you prefer to work alone, do it in your subpage.
If you got specific questions or need more help, feel free to ask me. Lupo 08:58, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
