Colonial Brazil
This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this article for peer review because I think it has some doubtful things. Brazil Colonial is a name created for a period of Brazil history. But I don't know exactly how official or informal were other names used in the article: Colony of Brazil, Viceroyalty of Brazil, Principality of Brazil and State of Brazil. In short, this matter lacks references.

Hi Tiberti! Peer review is a place where editors can bring articles that they want comments and suggestions from improvement on. Here, it looks like you already know what should be done with the article. What you say is true - it needs significant referencing. Do you plan to work on the article yourself? If so, I would suggest starting with the references listed at the bottom of the article. I also saw a couple of prospective references listed on the talk page. With a significant amount of referencing work also usually comes a good bit of expansion, prose changes, reorganization, etc., which makes it difficult to do a peer review this early in the article's development. At this point, I would suggest withdrawing the peer review and either working on the article yourself or trying to find some editors who would be interested in working on the article. WP:WikiProject Brazil might be a good place to start, although I don't know how active it is. But don't be afraid to jump in yourself and begin work! Dana boomer (talk) 13:23, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
