You have a nice variety of edits from grammar to revisions to additions. Your peer review has some great feedback/ideas if you're still searching for changes to make. If you're feeling ambitious you could mention how organizations are using social media to connect with donors on Giving Tuesday. DrTraceyJHayes (talk) 02:46, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

SB509Coml – Thank you for your unique article selection! I had very little knowledge behind GivingTuesday before reviewing the Wikipedia article as well as some of the sources.

First of all, this article is rated as a start class which means it has plenty of room for improvement and a great opportunity for you to make some impactful changes. The article has a great start with a detailed breakdown of the money moved by year. It also appears to have a decent amount of sources cited. I agree with all of your suggestions to adjust grammar/punctuation and especially the opportunity the article has with improving the 2020 section as well as the COVID-19 impacts.

I did see a few items that could use some improvement as well. The intro section introduces the concept of GivingTuesday with a quote from the actual nonprofit site, but there is not a restated overall purpose statement in anyone’s own words. I also feel like there is a lack of examples of what GivingTuesday can be other than just monetary donations. When I visited https://hq.givingtuesday.org I noticed there is also mention of acts of generosity. Maybe there is a way for you to expand upon that. I was a bit confused by the title of the section Reception. After reading through the section, I better understood what the original poster was going for, but I feel like there are better words to describe that. Suggestions: sentiment, response, recognition, outcome, acknowledgement. Finally, within that same section I thought the following statement may need to be rewritten, as I felt it was not completely neutral: “Reception of GivingTuesday has generally been positive, with a large number of organizations.”

I look forward to seeing your improvements! Please reach out if you’d like any additional help or feedback.
