Figured I'd do it too JTHicks (talk) 21:23, 20 October 2016 (UTC) JTHicks (talk) 21:23, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! It's in my sandbox so you'd have to go through there. My sandbox has its own talk page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Jlombera/sandbox I dont know if that helps! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jlombera (talk • contribs) 19:29, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review[edit]

Hey! I think the content is great and your citations looks good. I would suggest adding some links to other wikipedia pages for certain terms. For example, I wasn't sure what calypso music was, maybe there's a good link to match and define. Your subject headers may be missing a couple "=" signs, as well. My sandbox will be up soon. I swear I uploaded the information last week, but I must not have saved it properly. Sorry for the inconvenience! Kbrackne (talk) 04:28, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I did just that and added links within and to the article! Great idea! JTHicks (talk) 19:50, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. May I suggest adding a paragraph to the history section of the Calypsonian article addressing the role of gender within the culture, and linking to the broader article from within that? In general (and unlike hyperlinking in the web at large) wikilinks should be used in a fairly literal way to lead to information about the actual term linked. Someone clicking on a the linked phrase "social commentary" would probably be expecting to end up on an article about that topic. Hope that makes sense.
