Hello From a Fellow Student

Hi Luxord185, I think interacting via Wikipedia is pretty cool in a way. It's cool to say that we are going to be putting an article on Wikipedia for everyone to see. MatildaStar (talk) 12:35, 25 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Peer Editing: Overall, you have a really impressive article! There's so much more information on this topic than I thought there would be. The structure of the article kept it organized, making it easier to read. You have a lot of good credible sources to back up all of your information. To improve your article, I would add more links to wiki articles throughout the article. Some parts are very wordy with advanced vocabulary making the audienced more refined to only educated adults, students of archaeology or people with a basic background in arc. Maybe make some parts less complex and more easily understood for students or people with a lower education, or add more explanation. Also, there were some headings which only had one sentence below them. I'm not sure if its necessary to have a heading if the information below is so short, maybe add more information to those areas or find a spot for them in another paragraph. I really enjoyed reading the article, good job!! Theodorerex (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:14, 14 November 2016 (UTC) I think your article is really well put together and includes a ton of amazing information. I like how you have it organized as well. A few things I found that you could improve on were expanding the metallurgy section. It seems small next to the others and you don't have any examples yet. Another would be to thin out the part at the top of the LSA section about the debate on what that means. I think just providing dates and a general definition would work better. I think that debate belongs more on the LSA article. Lastly I would combine the explanation of the osl dates with the evedence found within those dates. I found it a little hard to keep up with. combine the types of tools with the stages you talk about. Cloebugg (talk) 18:29, 16 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Article feedback

Excellent work on your additions to the Kalambo Falls article. I wanted to bring up a few minor issues. Only the first letter of each header should be capitalized, except for the case of proper nouns which are always capitalized, such as the names of people or the titles of books. Consider incorporating the websites you added to the article as the sources for inline citations instead of listing them at the end as bare urls. Please let me know if you have any questions.
