A "finding scene" would be a type scene rather than a theme. On type scenes in Homer in particular, you can look at this article from the journal Oral Tradition (produced at Mizzou!). Dakrasne (talk) 21:11, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

Odyssey Peer Review
This article is very thorough and organized well. The difference sections between themes and type scenes is interesting and gives greater depth. This will significantly add to the article since there is no section over themes at this point. The only thing I would suggest would be to add citations, I notice they have not been added yet and I believe it would be easiest in the sandbox versus waiting until you move to the main page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TiffaniHunter (talk • contribs) 01:57, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

Distribution of sources
Rather than having the source as a page-range at the end of each chunk, you need to give citations for EACH statement you make, as well as connecting to the text much more frequently. (For instance: Alcinous is descended from Eurymedon? Where specifically does Homer say that?) So I've modeled this for you in the first two sections by marking it up with "citation needed." I've also changed around one of your citations of Homer so that you can see how it's more appropriate to do it. Dakrasne (talk) 03:11, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

Another Odyssey Peer Review
Your article has a lot of good information, you have obviously gone back over the epic and done your research. Just a few things I would note that you might consider revising. The first thing is that I think you should have more examples in some of your themes, such as Omens or Homecoming. There are other examples in the Odyssey that could relate to these areas. Another idea is that you should perhaps mention the scene with Polyphemus in the Guest-Friendship section as maybe an example of Guest Friendship gone wrong? Finally, you have a lot of repeated sentence structures and phrases, maybe try a little more variety in the way you discuss different articles and the article itself. Other than these things, I really do think this is a great article, keep up the good work!
