Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text:  on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

ENGL 304 Peer Review
Hello, AliENGL304. I have read through the content regarding your planned Cymbeline edits in your sandbox, and I have the following things to say.

First, let me discuss your lead section. Personally, I am satisfied with your lead section. You seem to know which pieces of information regarding the history of the play's adaptation are important and present this information relatively evenly. However, I suggest seeing if you can find an adaptation of the play from the 19th century just so that you can have an example for each century after the play was first performed.

As for your structure, I believe that it is sufficient. You clearly have one section that discusses the history of the play and how it has been adapted and a second section that explores where the play was performed and how those productions may have differed from the original play. However, I have two comments I would like to make regarding the second section. One, it appears that you only have three different examples of the play being performed over a span of about 400 years; it would be beneficially to find over examples of the play being performed just to fill this section out. Two, the name of the section is a little vague. Maybe you could renamed the section to "Performances" just so that it is easier to distinguish it from the first section.

I am also satisfied with how you balanced the content of the article. There is no portion within either of the two sections that is overrepresented, and biases are not present either. Do your best to maintain this balance as you add more content!

I also believe you have done a great job at maintaining a neutral tone thus far. The tone of the content does not imply that you have a position, you avoid words that imply that others feel one way or another about the topic, and you even have sources that both defend and attack Cymbeline. As with the balance of the article, try to maintain this as you add to the article.

Finally, it is clear that the content of the article is well-cited. Each paragraph has at least one citation, the sources for these citations are clearly given, and a variety of sources are used. However, some of these sources do appear to come from personal websites, so I would recommend trying your best to replace them with more reliable sources if possible.

Overall, I am very happy with the content I am seeing so far. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gregdu (talk • contribs) 01:13, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
