Feedback on User:Yikes99/sandbox
[edit]Hi Yikes99, I have made some formatting changes to your sandbox. I think you should really trim down the "Publications" section. A Wikipedia biography is not a Research Gate profile or LinkedIn CV--it doesn't need to exhaustively cover everything an academic has ever written. I would narrow in on the most important publications. Which are the books? Which are the most cited? I would include no more than five total publications. Look, for example, at the very few academic publications listed on the article for Stephen Hawking, who is obviously very influential and popular. You'll also want to avoid euphemisms and figures of speech such as "work hard and play hard".
Other than that it looks pretty good, though. Once you've finalized your edits, please carefully follow these instructions for moving your work out of the sandbox. Thanks, Elysia (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:48, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
