Peer Review: Droughts in California

Peer Review by james_duguid1 It might be a better approach to use the primary sources linked in the civileats.com article themselves instead of citing a food website. I think this would increase the credibility of the addition. Instead of the author being “Unknown” for the USGS Water Science Center source, you can use the USGS as the author. You should also look at the other sources you have listed as “Unknown” in your bibliography. I like your idea of creating a separate sub-section that has information on both adaptation and mitigation. I would not call this section “solutions” however, as adaptation and mitigation are not solutions (strictly speaking) to the problem. I would call it “responses” instead. I would also say that if you are trying to quote someone or refer to a policy launch, press releases are an adequate source. I agree that if you are looking for objective analysis of performance or impacts, press releases aren’t the best source. James duguid1 (talk) 00:28, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
