Article evaluation
[edit]I plan on adding more information about the Iroquois men's national lacrosse team. Right now, the page lacks information concerning the cultural and traditional impact attached to the game of lacrosse.

Notes
[edit]Hi! I have some notes for you.
- This is written in a fairly casual, essay-like tone. It needs to be written in the formal tone that Wikipedia uses - for this I recommend reviewing some of the other articles on Wikipedia to get a good idea of this style.
- This has some subjective, original research-esque tones as well. Things like "it is important" are subjective, as the importance of something is relative to the reader. Some may see a point as important while another may say that another point is more important to highlight. If you're drawing from the source, it's a good idea to attribute claims of this nature, like "according to...".
- The sourcing needs to be in-line per Wikipedia's citation style guidelines.
I hope this helps! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:23, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
