Peer Review

Hi! This was posted to the talk page for The Book of Unknown Americans. Peer reviews are supposed to be posted to the draft talk page ( User talk:Gemaavila/sandbox).

Wow! I really want to read this book! I like that your lead section is easy to understand and the information that you share there was so good, I already made up my mind to read the book then. Your article has a very clear structure and is concise and neutral, which I know can be challenging! But I think you did a great job. If I would make any suggestions it would be that maybe you could add information about the author Cristina Henriquez, I would be interested to know how she was inspired to write the story. I was also wondering if maybe you would want to add the Best Books of 2014 and 2014 novella of the year to the top, unless Development and Publication History moves down and you could put it there? I like that your sources are able to give some fun opinions and exciting language, that was a good idea! I look forward to seeing the page when you are all finished! And to have a conversation about the book too. Great job! Graiperins ( talk) 05:27, 4 November 2018 (UTC) reply

I've moved your comment here since I wasn't sure if this was a review of the live article or meant for the draft at User:Gemaavila/sandbox. Shalor (Wiki Ed) ( talk) 18:56, 5 November 2018 (UTC) reply

Notes

Hi! My only notes here would be to add more sourcing to help back up claims and to also maybe flesh out the article a little more here and there. I've added a few to a "further reading" section, but there looks to be quite a few out there - you may have to look more specifically at academic and scholarly sources. Your university's research librarian would be able to help you find more in your academic databases. If you can't go in person (which hey, can happen), you can always chat with them here online. Offhand though, I don't see any major issues and most of this is just going to be tweaking that you can do just as easily do once the article has been moved live as you could in your userspace.
