I agree with the revisions you want to make, such as giving a more well-rounded perspective of transformative justice rather than a few well-known figures. It is important to give all sides of the equation when it comes to transformative justice, not just one side, as the guidelines for editing Wikipedia articles. Furthermore, it is important to make the language more simple since I did find it hard at times to discern between transformative justice and restorative justice. If you need any help figuring out the differences between the two feel free to reach out to me. I was a TA for "Introduction to Criminal Justice" for two semesters, and I may have some sources you could use. Just let me know!

In your added section of "Transformative Justice in specific contexts" with "Post-colonial and post-conflict settings," I see that you have changed it from "Socioeconomic issues in transitional and post-conflict settings." Was this just a heading change to make it more clear? If so, it sounds good to me. Are you planning on adding more to the "Post-colonial and post-conflict settings?"

Good work on wanting to clean up the references section by making everything Chicago-style! Consistency is very good, especially considering "Transformative Justice" is still developing as an article. I would also suggest including more citations to express where the information is coming from. For instance, the lead of the article says, "Transformative justice is a series of practices and philosophies designed to create change in social systems." Where does this come from? How do we know it "is a series of practices and philosophies designed to create change in social systems?" I would try to focus on this since it would give the article more credibility and consistency in the piece.

I like the idea of adding a brief section on transformative justice and sexual violence to connect the criminal justice system and gender. What have you found so far? It sounds very promising!

I look forward to seeing your revisions to the article!
