Sources

[edit]

Ashley - - I think you'll have to start broad with your references, e.g. literary histories, reference books, etc. Here are a couple places worth looking

Spanish and Latin American Literature and Culture (Washington State U.) A Guide to Latin American Studies (Wash U.) Spanish and Latin American Literature and Culture: Online Reference Sources (Yale U.) Culture and Customs of Honduras (a beginning bibliography of Honduran lit) Cambridge History of Latin America (Vol. 10)

It looks like one main scholar of Honduran lit is Helen Umana - - here's a link to her wikipedia page (oddly only published on the german wikipedia)

Hope this helps. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Profhanley (talkcontribs) 16:32, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review

[edit]

Honduran Literature Peer Review: Mimi Willmer Hey, great article improvements. I think the content you’ve added vastly improves the page overall. Now just edit some grammatical issues and sentence structures. Below, I pointed out some places that have grammatical issues within the first section. Also, there are some areas that could use links to help guide a reader that isn’t familiar with some of the names. Overall great improvements, it just needs some finishing touches. -In the lead section link Salgado and give some context, as someone unfamiliar with Honduran Literature I need some background for this person. -“consequence from the political unrest of the country is that many of the literature produced remains unpublished and therefore, unknown” This sentence structure needs attention, “many” should be “much”. -Link romanticism -Revise this statement “than most other literatries in the world” -Insert comma after literature check spelling “After Romanticism moves into Honduras literature really begins to make its prevelance as can be seen in the early authors: Manuel Molina Vijil,” - Link modernism - “an Honduran” should be “a Honduran” (same sentence needs revision) Mwillmer (talk) 22:55, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review

[edit]

Compared to the original page, your revision is looking great. The information is much more substantial and it seems like the evidence is there to back it up. The page is clearly organized, broken up by the headers it makes it easy to move from one part of the page to the next.

I'm guessing it's just a place holder but the sub-heading "Lead," isn't necessary. If you look at another complete wiki page you'll notice that the "topic sentence" includes a bolded word. The bolded word should be the main topic of the wiki page. The Honduran literature page actually does that, you can look at that one to see what I mean.

It may be helpful to have some time frames for each section like you did for the "generation of 35." If you have the information to back up some definitive dates that could help people look further into specific Honduran Literature.

Images could be helpful too, if there is any of more famous Honduran writers. The Greek Literature WikiPage was images of the more famous inlaid into the page. Could be a helpful idea if the images are available.

In terms of form for your writing, you might be able to make the page a little more reader friendly if you break up your paragraphs a little bit. For instance, when there is the long list of authors it may be useful to make it its own paragraph. Don't make a whole new section but separate it from the rest of the paragraph. Could make it a little bit easier to navigate through the information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pfuller412 (talkcontribs) 17:09, 16 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
