Article Subject

Ashia, of these two options, I would suggest going with your bat species, since that article contains less information than does your other article. However, even this bat article contains more information than you want in an article that you will add to, for this assignment. You really want an article that has almost no information. You did show me an article per a shrew that had very little information - this would probably be the best article for you to focus on. Can you please email me this shrew article link?

Ashia, apologies, I see all 3 links now! I would definitely suggest going with the shrew article. Rhirshorn (talk) 19:53, 14 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Peer Review

Abegum5, overall a very informative and well-rounded article. It is missing a lead where you introduce your animal and let the reader know what this article will be about. Also, it needs to be in more of a wikipedia article format, with bold headings and a title. In addition, more complete sentences that inform the reader without being too concise, but also do not drag out what you are trying to say. Punctuation and grammar are fine, but really need to develop more and provide insight, overall very good! The most important thing you can do to improve your article would be to develop your sentences more and elaborate.
