Some of my main changes to the page thus far have been to include a mention of how "entropy" is a prominent factor in Asimov's story. I have also linked some information to the Wiki page for Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics which also play into the history and conception of the story.


The most significant area of change has been the "plot summary". I have expanded on the details of each era from which the story takes place. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GabrielleLohse (talkcontribs) 01:46, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Greenlight

[edit]

Hi Gabrielle,

Hope all is well! First of all, Prof. H wanted to go through and make sure anyone who has created a draft, received peer reviews, and made subsequent revisions gets an official "greenlight" to move their sandbox article draft to their live Wikipedia article. It looks like you're ready for that.

So, after double checking for formatting, grammar, and style, you can begin publishing live on Wikipedia. (See the "Moving work out of the sandbox" module for detailed instructions on how to do so, if needed.)

Also, I saw you only ended up receiving one peer review- sorry about that. I'll provide you a little feedback below, but if you need any other further assistance, please feel free to let me know!

Like Chris said, I think you've greatly improved the "Plot summary" section as well as the "History" and "Lead" sections. I'm sure if you wanted to, you could still add and refine and tweak, but I'll leave that to your discretion.

I do think you did an excellent job of finding sources on your bibliography sandbox page and I really like the idea of adding a "Themes" section. You could probably put these two things together and expand the themes section by elaborating on them a little bit (maybe only on 3 of them instead of all 5, to save time and effort?). For example, the Dune (novel) article (which is a B-class article, so pretty safe to model after) has a "Themes and influences" section that has a couple paragraphs on each listed theme. Of course, the article you're working with is much smaller, you'd probably only need to add a couple sentences per theme, as opposed to a couple paragraphs. The Dune article just would give you a good idea of how to write those sentences, especially since they're both science fiction stories and written only 10 years apart.

But, that's just an idea. If you think something else would work better and want my feedback, please feel free to ask! --Sjnickerson (talk) 05:19, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
