JACEE'S EDITS. Hey Jafrah, Below are a few edits I have for your Wiki article on your first draft. Let me know if you have any questions at all.

“She is employed at the School of Journalism and Mass Communications, University of Iowa’s College of Arts and Sciences.” -Flip this around, “University of Iowa’s College of Arts and Sciences, School of Journalism and Mass Communications.”

“She currently is a joint professor of gender, etc.” - Flip “currently” and “is” - “She is currently etc.”

Instead of using the word “she” consistently throughout your paper, try using her last name - “Durham is a joint professor of gender, etc.”

“She is also the Faculty Fellow at the Office of etc.” Replace the comma with “at” to keep it flowing and sound more like a story.

I would throw in her place of birth somewhere in the beginning sentences of your first paragraph to feed more background information first.

Good job with your research on her schooling background.

In the scholarly work section, maybe give more examples of her work and what she has done with that research.

You did a really good job, Jaf! Just a few edits here and there and if you need help with how to cite in Wiki I would be more than willing to help you out. -JaCee Aaseth

Katelyn Czichotzki's Edits:

- Capitalize "Professor of Gender, Women's and Sexuality Studies" - Maybe flip the Gender Women's and Sexuality to "Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies". Flows a little better. - You use "she" a lot... try referring to her by her last name in replacement for some of the she's. - I feel like the birthplace should go earlier in the paragraph/page. - Good organization! - Under Awards/Honors, maybe use her last name instead of beginning with referring to her as "her". - Love it, Jafrah! Good job. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Katelynczi (talk • contribs) 02:18, 10 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Decent job of peer review on this one!

I SEE THE PROBLEM WITH EDITING -- YOU ARE IN USER TALK/SANDBOX. ONLY YOU CAN ACCESS YOUR SANDBOX. SEE IF YOU CAN CUT AND PASTE WHAT YOU HAVE HERE DIRECTLY TO YOUR SANDBOX, WHICH SHOULD BE AN ICON ON THE TOP NEAR YOUR NAME. WHEN I'M COMMENTING I'M IN EDIT SOURCE VS EDIT, WHICH PUTS ME IN WIKI EDIT. COME SEE ME IF YOU CAN'T GET IT FIXED.
