Peer review: Hey there Danny! I really enjoyed reading your lead about Brigade and look forward to your new additions. SO far your lead is written very well and you have included sources already which is great. I look forward to reading more! Best regards, Raulcab ( talk) 02:31, 24 March 2018 (UTC).
Response to Raul's Review: Hi Raul! Thank you for your comments! Hoping to add many more citations, preferably more credible sources! :) Thanks and good luck with your article! Dannyticknor ( talk) 19:25, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi Danny! — Marchjuly has some concerns over the Brigade Media article - one of which is that it comes across as too promotional. I've tagged them here so they can weigh in as well.
I've tweaked the lead to help give an example of sorts - here's what I did and why I changed things. Below is the original lead and my tweaked version:
I changed the first sentence to start off with when it was formed and by whom- as well as a more specific explanation as to what it was, namely a non-partisan civic technology platform. This was already in the lead, but I wanted to pull it all to one lead introductory sentence. I then merged the "aims to" information with the one about the hopes - this is sort of the same information for the most part, so it can be merged without really losing a whole lot, as there's generally supposed to be more specific information in the lower parts of the article. The last sentence was then tweaked to show what the petitions and such are intended to go towards. I tried to reduce the usage of things like "hope for" since those can sometimes be seen as a little promotional.
I would recommend re-writing the impact section, as stating that it being heavily used by millennials is an accomplishment can be seen as original research. This could probably be relabeled as maybe results since it's more information about numbers and results with the app. Shalor (Wiki Ed) ( talk) 19:52, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
Hi Dannyticknor. Non-free content such as File:The logo of Brigade Media.jpg can only be used in the article namespace per WP:NFCC#9. This means that such content cannot be used at User:Dannyticknor/sandbox as explained in WP:UP#Non-free files. I previously removed this file twice from your sandbox, but perhaps you didn't see (or understand) the edit sums that I left. Anyway, just time I'm posting here as well. Please don't re-add this file or any other non-free content to your sandbox again. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 01:09, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
I'm sorry! I actually had no idea that adding the logo was a violation if in the sandbox. I won't do that again Dannyticknor ( talk) 04:13, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
