Feedback on your article[edit]

Hello Isabellemaas, 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: I get the impression that the 1967 book is just a translation of the 1910 German book. If that is the case, the first paragraph of your article should be re-written. Focus on the original publication first, and in the last two sentences of this paragraph you mention the translation (as was in first sentence) + the last sentence. Please also mention the eight members who wrote the book in the first or second sentence of the first paragraph.
Links: Good start, but more internal links are needed! Please look for keywords in your article and link them to other Wikipedia articles. For example: "Goethe".
Headers: okay
References: Missing! Every Wikipedia article must have sources and references.
Context/timeframe: Missing!
How was the book received: Missing?
Other: Great you used an infobox!

I hope you can implement this feedback to your sandbox article before our next meeting. Thanks! Romaine (talk) 11:33, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Isabellemaas, 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: Thank you for the improvements made. However I am not yet fully happy yet, for the same reason as with my previous comment. If you want we can shortly talk about it today.
Links: Good, thank you for the improvements! But in an Wikipedia article we do not link to articles in other Wikipedias. If an article does not exist yet in the English Wikipedia, it becomes a red link and is good. This will promote the missing articles to be written.
Headers: I would suggest to change "Reactions" to "Reception".
References: Sufficient sources. Where possible I would recommend to also add inline sources (as references/footnotes). A small detail: add references behind the dot and no space between the dot and the reference.
Context/timeframe: Missing! If you have difficulty finding sources, please ask your teach/Odin for help.
How was the book received: Good, but if expanding is possible this would be welcome!
Other: Thank you for the section "See also".

Keep up the good work! Romaine (talk) 03:40, 17 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Isabellemaas, 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) 02:31, 1 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
