Pocahontas
I have been trying to improve this page by adding references for every statement made. I would appreciate any ideas about further ways to improve the page. The Singing Badger 17:05, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * After a quick skim, I would suggest working on those red links. There are probably a few too many. Also, since you have many inline refs to a few sources, I would suggest putting full citations in a ==References== section, and doing short inline citations a la J. R. R. Tolkien. More for neatness than any policy. - The Catfish 20:53, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks, that's a much more efficient citation system; I'll work on it. The Singing Badger 21:30, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * The article is broken into far too many sections, which increases the length of the table of contents and makes the text disjointed and more difficult to read.--Peta 05:03, 18 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Per WP:MOS, headings generally do not start with the word "The". For example,  ==The Biography==  would be changed to  ==Biography== .


 * Per WP:MOS, headings generally should not repeat the title of the article. For example, if the article was Ferdinand Magellan, instead of using the heading  ==Magellan's journey== , use  ==Journey== .


 * This article is a bit list-weighty; in other words, some of the lists should be converted to prose (paragraph form).


 * Images need proper image copyright tags and source information.


 * Per WP:WIAFA, Images should have concise captions.


 * There are a few sections that are too short and that should be either expanded or merged.
