Hi, several points: I believe in the training sessions, not only we aren't supposed to paraphrase, we should not cite word by word within quotation marks either?

For the content, I think the structure can be subdivided into "Etymology", "History", "Development" rather than all in one section, same as "contemporary uses (generally)" and "examples" than all in one part, just my opinion though.
For the numbers, I ain't sure you should only use imperial or change into metrics, as you do show them both sometimes? But it is worth considering or find out Wiki rules?
And I think it is a little risky to make a chart with prices tied to a certain era, but I do admire your effort to transfer your findings into a sheet!
Good work.

Plus, original content has only 1 source, so it is worth challenging or erasing the original paragraph if you find fitting. Wagram Qizhang Pimlico (talk) 21:55, 28 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

I agree with your peer reviewer that the tables are a bold move, but I encourage you to include them in the final article; let's see whether they stick! The quotation is long, but also worth including.

Possible improvements include more about the challenges of rigorous analysis (given the different properties of the two materials), more about fire resistance (if you can find it), and an image or two.Elizabeth Linden Rahway (talk) 12:40, 1 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
