Rough Draft for planned edits to the Chinese Industrialization article:

'''A lot of what I intend to do is related to examining the plethora of "citation needed" templates. The most glaring problem I see in this article, is that it makes a lot of bold claims without necessarily providing a credible source. In this regard, I'm going to interrogate the claims, see if I can't find a source to substantiate them, and then determine whether or not they're subject to deletion if I can't find a substantiating source. In addition to cleaning up the existent "citation needed" templates, I fully intend on adding more where I deem necessary, and of course, reapplying the aforementioned process where necessary.'''

Shedden suggestion: Give me a few ideas of sections that you are concerned with

Brandon Peer Review Week 2 - This is a great idea on improving this wiki page, since from the initial appearance of the page tells me that it has enough claims and information needed for this wiki-page. So adding citations, fact checking, and interrogating these claims would make a significant improvement to this wiki article.

'''In addition to focusing a lot of time and energy towards the citations, or lack thereof, I plan to apply most of energy towards engaging with the "Industrialization of the People's Republic of China" section as that is where the majority of my resources, and primary resources available to me, will be pertinent and effective. I think theres a lot of history there that is slightly biased such as "China's citizens had to make do with barely sufficient food supplies, rationed clothing, inadequate housing, and a service sector that was inadequate and inefficient. All of these shortcomings embarrassed China internationally." This is kind of a troubling claim to make, and doesn't necessarily contribute or relate to the industrialization of China directly. So thats one example of problematic claims that I would clean up, or at least search for a citation to substantiate.'''

Shedden suggestion: Start thinking about how you might reword such claims to make them less biased and easier to substantiate.

Brandon Peer Review Week 2 - This is an interesting section of the your wiki-page to work with citation, as in the original section of this wiki only has one citation within multiple paragraphs. Although I agree with Professor Shedden, that rewording the bias claims would be great as a lot of this section does contain a somewhat handful of bias claims.

'''I would also probably try to note the role of a state planned economy/communism in relation to the process of industrialization, because in the story of China, you cannot really separate the two from one another. I also initially did not really focus on the environmental impacts of rapid industrialization, but that seems to be a really integral part of the entire idea of industrialization so I might try to engage with that, but again, its more peripheral than the actual industrialization process. I might actually also want to incorporate a section on China's role as the industrial producer for the United State's markets, although that may be to ambitious for the time frame, but China's industrial capacity definitley sends ripples out throughout the world socially, politically and economically.'''

Shedden suggestion: You have a number of good ideas here. Start writing out the paragraphs that you might want to add.

Brandon Peer Review Week 2 - These are great Ideas to add onto this section of the wiki article. Very interested on what you have to say on the China's role in the international market. It would be interesting if you focused on People's Republic of China's role in the international market.
