Feedback on your article
[edit]Hello Danorop, Thank you for writing your article in your sandbox! I have read the article and would like to give some feedback to improve your article to Wikipedia standards and customs. While your tutor will judge it content wise, I will look if it meets the quality standards we have on Wikipedia. I standard look for a series of subjects that need improvement or are okay.
- Intro sentence: This is not how an intro sentence should start. Please check more existing Wikipedia articles. An article usually starts with: "Xyz is a ..." or "Xyz refers to ..." Easily to fix, but required.
- Links: Please look for keywords in your article and link them to other Wikipedia articles.
- Headers: Use less capitalised characters (last 2 headers), usually we only make the first character of a header capitalised, unless it is a given name. I do not think it is needed to use long headers, "Examples of Accomodation Sharing Networks" can be shortened to "Examples of networks" as we already know that the article is about accommodation sharing. Accommodation is by the way with 2x m
- References: There are no references in your text! Instead you added external links in the text after lines. Please fix this according to it has been described here. Please also add at the bottom of the page a header "References" with in the line below the following: {{Reflist}}
- Other: We usually use bold text only in the intro sentence to mark the subject (once) of an article. In the rest of an article we usually do not use bold and is not needed. In the section of "Types of shared accommodation" and the last section you wanted to make a list, we then usually use a bulleted list. Please look up the cheatsheet I gave you how to do so or see on the project page for an example.
- Ready to publish: because your article is about shared accommodation, and the article Hospitality service already exists in Wikipedia, your article can't be published as we only have one article for a single subject. But I would recommend you to look for parts of your article that you can add to the existing article. This I think can be done near the end of coming session.
I hope you can implement this feedback to your sandbox article before our next meeting. Thanks! Romaine (talk) 16:27, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
