The page Draft:Sarah Drasner has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appeared to be a direct copy from https://london.serverlessdays.io/speakers/sarah/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been be deleted.

Edits to Sarah Drasner Article By Zieg5065[edit]

Spelling & Grammar: Article looks like it has a great structure to it, however, there does not seem to be much material within the page. As far as grammar and spelling goes, there are only a few suggestions I have. First, head statement should be, "Sarah Drasner is the Vice President of Vue." Then go on to add her roles in the company, but leave the first sentence to only her professional title or why she is notable. "Sarah work as developer at Netlify, and a writer at CSS-Tricks" should read, "Drasner currently works as a developer at Netlify and a writer at CSS-Tricks." I would suggest replacing some of the "She also" statements with phrases like furthermore, additionally, and replacing "She" with her full name or last name - never use just her first name. Some of the sentences do not have a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence. The final suggestion I would change in the Career section is "Additionally, Sara is writer of SVG Animations book" to "Additionally, Sarah Dresner is a writer of the SVG Animations book." Looks like the name was misspelled, but again, do not just use her first name.

Bigger Picture Suggestions: I would begin by adding more content to your article. It seems quite bare for the amount of notable work Sarah Drasner has completed and I feel as if it is not being explained well enough. Another suggestion similar to this one is to add more sections and better organize the article. Categories like Acheievements, Education, Life, Awards, Publications etc. could all be added to your article. I like the information added, but it seems like the information added is very generic. If you wanted to learn about Drasner and you found this wikipedia article, would you learn everything you actually wanted to know about her? Regarding her work, it seems like both her past and current professional titles are being mixed up in addition to never ending. Im not sure if she is a Vice President, developer, writer, speaker, co-founder of web animation at Val, leader for emerging markets, manger for UX, and an engineer at the Trulia/Zillow Group all at the same time, but this should certainly be clarified so the reader can better understand what Sarah Drasner is currently doing or working on professionally. Furthermore, I would recommend adding more sources of information rather than using only one source for the reasons explained by the wikipedia trainings.
