Sixtine's peer review
- Your division in three different categories is really interesting and relevant, as it is important to distinguish participatory budgeting according to their context and purpose. - Your presentation of the facts is really neutral and gives the reader the information necessary so that she can make her opinion. The amount of source you gathered is also quite impressive and shows the reader a good overview on the existing experiences of PB and their diversity. - The explanation of some experiences (like the one in the Greater Boston Area) provides a clear understanding of how PB can work, with specific information on the context, the outcomes, the nuances and the connection to the general theory.

- My main advice for improvement is linked to the fact that I am not quite sure to understand how your paragraphs will fit with the existing Wikipedia article on Participatory Budgeting. Will your three categories be inserted in the section of "implementation"? If yes, how will you articulate your structure that goes along the categories "municipal processes, school processes and college processes" with the structure of the Wikipedia article that follows a geographic logic. Do you plan on restructuring the entire section on implementation along to your categories (if yes, are your categories exhaustive)? Or will you simply add these categories at the end? - I would advise to develop a bit more the explanations of some experiences that are not as developed as other experiences for which you offer a lengthy explanation - this creates a disproportion in terms of the information the reader gets on specific examples (especially regarding the actors involved, the participation rate, the dates, the process and the outcome). For example, the Toronto Community Housing PB is not much developed (especially since it is the only one that is mentioned for Housing Complex Processes, but if you have more examples of this type of process, that would be interesting to mention them too), and the same goes for Chicago, San Antonio and Phoenix. - If I am not mistaken, your sections on Porto Alegre seems unfinished, and the one on Uruguay unstarted. - This link does not seem to work: "About Us".
