User talk:Sivan R.

Welcome!
Hello, Sivan R., and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 11:39, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi Sivan-- My name is Patrice- a fellow student in the online Languages in Peril Class. I'm struggling a bit with the wikicode but am looking forward to gaining more control over it and seeing what cool things the class produces. Looking forward to interacting with you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pariewill (talk • contribs) 21:27, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

Peer Review and Copy Edit
Hi Sivan! I think you've got a good article so far! I went ahead and added in a title and a section header for the first section. You do have a few pieces of information that you repeated a few times within the article (i.e. in the intro, and then again in a later section). I think it would read better if you remove the information from the intro and then discuss in more detail in a later section. For example, you mention the four tones in the introduction. I suggest just stating "Yulu is a tonal language" in the introduction (or removing reference to this from the intro completely) and then creating a "Tones" or a "Phonology" section, and listing them there. I think another section you could consider adding is a geography section, as it seems like you have a good amount of information about the distribution of Yulu as well as the fact that it might not actually be an indigenous language. By making a geography section that is more detailed, it makes the introduction a bit shorter and perhaps an easier read. It is irrelevant to say where Santandrea is from, I think you can comfortably just say "Some of the most comprehensive linguistic information on Yulu was written by Stefano Santandrea, a Catholic priest who lived in Bahr al-Ghazal for several decades", however this is a very minor thing. Overall, this looks like a great start for your article and it seems like a very interesting language! Laniw (talk) 21:31, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
