Hestia

The Hestia article's main audience lies in the historical realm. As an article, it does a good job of informing this audience about Hestia's influence on ancient Greek culture. In comparison to other articles, such as Athena and Aphrodite, the organization differs greatly. This is where most of my structural editing will be applied.

In order to move forward, giving the sections different headings and subheadings will allow others to follow and find a place for their information. As it is now, the structure can be hard to follow and does not flow. My edits will focus on clarifying these different sections and going in closely to fix any "small" errors.

actual: Erik the Red

Like Hestia, this the Erik the Red article also caters toward a more historical audience. However, it targets a different time period. It might even draw those interested in early westward expansion. Its main purpose is to inform this audience that is looking for more on the subject of vikings or early colonization. In looking for an article of comparison, I thought Leif Erikson had the most to offer in terms of structure and being closely comparable subject-wise. Because of the similarity in subject, it was helpful to find different issues with headings and structure.

Moving forward, most of the edits will focus on the structure of the article and the order of events. As it is, the information does not have a clear flow and the timelines is not easy to follow. A challenge that I might have will be in re-ordering a lot of the information and finding a new way to set up the headings. This will give an opportunity to future editors to add information with greater ease and organization.
