Peer review by Germanboi87
I think your reflective essay is very well written. You have several paragraphs that all answer important questions like peer review, feedback and summarizing your contributions. Your style of writing is easy to read and it sounds very smooth. I really like how you explained some functions of Wikipedia, for example what a diff is, or what it means to leave an editing summary. I also like how you presented your view of Wikipedia before and after the class, and how it changed. The exact same thing happened to me, and I agree that this class was super helpful. If I were you, I would include at least one paragraph about the article that you created, and what the process of creating it was like. Other than that, I think you did a really good job!

Review by Jisbell2
Overall there is a lot of good things in your essay, but the first paragraph... Three out of four sentences begin with the word I. Your entire essay seems really good though. It seems like you really enjoyed your time on Wikipedia. You went into a decent bit of detail on what we do on Wikipedia. It is very true that it is much harder to write an article than it is to edit or review one. I appreciate you saying your assumptions were all incorrect, and going back and saying what Wikipedia truly was. You seem to have a good structure throughout your essay, all that is really needed is a few minor changes in sentence structure and some minor copy edits. If you fallow most of what you already have written you should get a good grade on this. Jisbell2 (talk) 17:34, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

The essay that you have written was good. I think that you were able to answer the questions presented in a clear and concise way. I believe that the organization of this essay was good, did get alittle wordy on one of the paragraphs but other than that everything was fine. This essay was a very easy read and I had the same feelings as you before and after the class. PeterYatesVT (talk) 05:45, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
