John Timmons' Peer Review[edit]

First off, I can tell that you are passionate and well-informed about prized-linked savings accounts. You describe PLSA well in your introduction. Also great job using citations and linking to other Wikipedia pages.

Regarding your introductory paragraph, it was well-written and informative, however it is really the only substantial paragraph that you have. Consider adding more length to your other sections to your article out; this provides for more consistency throughout your article. It looks like there is no shortage of information and content to provide about PLSAs with all of the links you listed on your page. Additionally, try to organize and structure your article better. Maybe each subsection can be for different types of PLSAs, or maybe one subsection can be dedicated PLSAs that had good affects and another section for PLSAs that did not. Also, your "United States" section should be in chronological order. For example, the American Savings and Promotion Act of 2014 that you reference should be discussed before you discuss the establishment of PLSAs in 2016. Furthermore, in your "United States" section I would not list the states in bullet point format. Instead, I would list them out in paragraph format using two-letter abbreviations; this takes up less undue space.

Like I said, you do a good job of describing PLSAs, but try to give more history on the topic if possible. Not only is providing history on the topic interesting, but it will also provide more context which may help the reader to better understand the concept. Overall, your article is a good first start.
