Ways to improve Camp Nyoda
Thanks for creating Camp Nyoda.

A New Page Patroller Rosguill just tagged the page as having some issues to fix, and wrote this note for you:

"The article looks good overall, although it needs some minor copyediting to comply with the manual of style. Additionally, the article currently cites IMDb, which is not considered a reliable source."

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can reply over here and ping me. Or, for broader editing help, you can talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

 * Thank you for your help! I removed the IMDb references and therefore also removed the part of the tag relating to unreliable sources. The trivia section was removed by another editor so I replaced it with the Notable people section, added another alumna, and moved the reference to the Tree Farmer of the Year award to the History section. I also made a number of copyedits but imagine I haven't caught them all. I have also submitted the question regarding copyedits to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

 * I have gotten a lot of good feedback from the volunteers at the Teahouse, and have made the corrections they suggested. One question I have is in regards to the nicknames provided for the different people mentioned - I know including nicknames is discouraged, but they are the names exclusively used by these people and are, in many cases, uncommon nicknames for their given names (like "Ginner" for Virginia, for example). I have included this question in the Teahouse feed but have yet to hear back. I would love any feedback on this or on anything else you think should be changed. Thank you so much!

 * Honestly I'm not sure what the appropriate thing to do is r.e. nicknames. I think it's a solid argument to say that because they are primarily referred to by their nicknames in reliable sources, they should be used in the article. However, it also seems equally valid to refer to them by their full names, as presumably it's easy when reading the sources to extrapolate what nickname corresponds to which person. Ultimately, I think you can go ahead and use either, with the caveat that whichever you decide on, you should use consistently throughout the whole article. If this proves to be controversial, have a discussion about it on the talk page for the article. signed,Rosguill talk 18:44, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you! So, just to be clear, you think it would be best to use either all full names or all nicknames, and not give the full name and the nickname in parenthesis? Srannamartina (talk) 19:48, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, once the full names vs. nicknames bit is cleared up, are there other copyediting issues you see that need to be fixed? Do you think I can remove the "multiple issues" tag, or are there other changes that need to be made? Thank you, again, so much for your help! Srannamartina (talk) 19:48, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
