Youth Against Rape


I've listed this article for peer review because… I think this article needs some suggestions from good editors, please leave your comments on what can be added/removed or corrected. Please tell the Headline for which you are giving suggestion(s). Thanks, Pratyush.shrivastava (talk) 11:11, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Hiya on an initial read-through I would say the article does need some work. First off, it needs a copy-edit, I can help with that. It also needs a reference section header. The most glaring thing issue for me is that it is mostly uncited. What I mean is that there are whole sections (eg history, team, activities and campaigns, outreach, collaboration) which currently have no references on them. That's not good, every paragraph should be cited at the least, often I cite something every one or two sentence. This doesn't however mean that you need to put five references on the same sentence, that's overkill. Especially having five references on one sentence in the lead is not necessary I would say. MOS:LEADCITE suggests references in the lead tend not to be needed, since the lead should be summarising the rest of the article.
 * You shouldn't have external links in the article text, so I'll remove them. If you check my edits, you'll see edit summaries for what I'm doing. I'll add some wikiprojects to the talkpage, that might attract some other editors. In terms of article structure, it's a bit early for me to advise, I'd say it's good you start with a history, some of the other sections eg petition details and team maybe are not necessary, depends how much sourcing you can find. Remember ideally we want secondary or tertiary reliable sources. To sum up, this article is a great start but needs to be referenced throughout. If you want guidance on specific questions please ask, otherwise I would recommend reading other articles you are interested in to see how they work in terms of structure and citations.

 * After looking at the article a bit more, I would say that it's good you are linking to other wikipedia articles but you are doing it too much, per MOS:LINKSTYLE. There's no need to link very broad things like "organisation" or "youth".
 * does this article exist in other langauges? maybe that would be a good way to find more reliable sources?
 * you should give a WP:PROMO a good read and actually if you are involved personally with the group that's fine but you would have a conflict of interest and should declare it on the talkpage.
 * 50,0000+ km - which source is this in and also it's written wrong (you cannot have four zeroes after a comma in a number in english), do you mean 50,000? Mujinga (talk) 12:10, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
