Civic Test Revision[edit]

Regarding the 2020 test revision, showing figures on how the new test may have affected the passing rate of underrepresented and poorer non-English speaking immigrants would be helpful in understanding the motives of the revision. Wafflehouse777 (talk) 18:02, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Peer review: This draft of your suggestion to add numbers or data as evidence for this article, is a good one. It is always a good idea to backup whatever you say with evidence, and I agree that this would be helpful to understand the motives of the 2020 change. It’s good that you only said that it would be helpful to understand the motives, instead of taking a side and supporting the revision or not. A suggestion would be to not only add the figures showing how the new test affected immigrants, but also maybe how the immigrants responded to this as well. This could give you evidence to describe the side of what is was like for immigrants then, and possibly tie into why this new test was revoked in 2021 by President Biden with an Executive Order.

Peer Review: Adinjoshi1[edit]

This article seems to have captured very little of the actual impact of the American Civics Test and I am glad that you are choosing to update this.

On to specific advice, I highlighted 4 grammar mistakes in the article itself that you can fix in your updates. Further than that, I think it is very exciting to see more statistics behind the claims made in the article. I would only suggest to limit the number of direct claims you are making and stick to the numbers. Although it is recent that the test was flipped back to the 2008 version, I think making that more clear in the article would help reader clarity.
