Liz,

You did a great job in describing the role of collection manager. I liked how you included the registrar's role and and its responsibilities since they are co-workers and share the key responsibilities in the documentation and care of a museum's collection. I would have added more information related to the basic care of collections, in terms of appropriate methods conservation, storage, environment such as: temperature, humidity and lighting, etc; which I should have added in my article too. My only suggestions is to rearrange skills and education, I would have added skill first, following with education and experience; including adding hyperlinks to keywords in your article to other Wikipedia articles or webpages. In addition in fixing the reference in your article; which is something not easy but not impossible. Overall great article. Thanks for sharing!

Liz, You really covered the nuts and bolts of this position in a condensed manner! I would have never thought to have included a section on how to find a job, I think that was genius! Although the terms collections manager and registrar are at time interchanged, I might have suggested not making not of that as many museums have both positions and this might prove to be a bit confusing. I the section where you spoke about finding a job, maybe you could include a link to a resume on Linkedin of someone who currently occupies this job title? Expanding upon the skills sets that are required to become a collections manager as well as those needed while working in this position would be a nice level of clarity for those unfamiliar with this job. Again, great job! J Hare — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thefashiongeek 9000 (talk • contribs) 01:24, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Liz- I think this is a really good project to focus on. It looks like the things you are going to rewrite need a little revamping so that was a good choice. I was wondering if maybe you could add a section on Plans for the Future or something like that? Like current projects that the AIC is working on to show that they are not a static agency and they are doing important work? But maybe that is a bad idea because then the page would have to be updated often and I imagine there is no one to do that? Or and this is another random idea, so feel free to ignore it, but could you list some successful projects or trainings that the AIC has involved themselves in? Do they have a board? Perhaps listing those members could be something to mention especially if they are well known in their fields? Overall I think the outline you have listed is really well thought out and I wish I had more to add! I just think it could use a bit of pizazz, but it is hard to come up with a good idea for that. Very well done and I can't wait to see the final product! Rgoodru1 (talk) 19:09, 20 April 2015 (UTC)) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.160.61.25 (talk)
