 * More references to scholarly articles can be added to build up on the information already present and information that is missing. This site contrasts two main corpora ICE and GloWbE. reference
 * More on the history and background can be found on this page along with additional information.

 * There is a lot that can be added to this article. The International Corpus of English is widely used and cited, and certainly has a history longer than a single paragraph. Some of our initial ideas to improve it would be to find influential linguistics papers that used the ICE as a corpus. We can also dig deeper into the structure and make-up of the corpus and elaborate on that. We can probably also elaborate on the different countries that participate. I plan on expanding on the description of the structure of the corpus. There is a lot of information that can be added there, and I believe it will be very important to readers. Below I have added to my bibliography a few more academic articles that talk about the corpus. These will help with writing about the structure as well as the history of the corpus.

Preliminary Bibliography Links In addition to the websites below, we can also find the individual websites for each country that participates in the program. KalenTheGreat (talk) KalenTheGreat —Preceding undated comment added 00:19, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

Alejandra's Peer Review
This a good article that can use a few things. More resources and perhaps new updated information. I would like to make a contribution on English of other countries and how it affects the language. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aleorteal (talk • contribs) 03:10, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

Peer Review
So far everything seems relevant to the topic at hand. I do think that the draft should be a little more developed by now. I also think everybody's work should be added onto the leader's talk page. It was a bit confusing to find, but other than that this group seems to be on track. Good luck guys!Saphireh97 (talk) 06:21, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

Jonathan's Peer Review
From what I can see on the draft, the group has good ideas on what to contribute to this article. I can see how they adding more to the history section can help readers better understand the topic, but you ought to trend carefully, as a long winded history section could cause a lost of interest. If they are to elaborate further on the countries that use the Corpus, then perhaps explaining how they have used it in the past and how they plan to use it in the future would be a good idea. Something that I think could make this article more relevant may be add some research findings in how the Corpus has evolved during the internet era and what plans are set for the future of the platform. Another thing to review perhaps, would be the structure of the article, just to make sure all the ideas are set concisely. Good luck guys!Tatangrunge (talk) 06:49, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
