1. Move the “Nok Culture” Infobox to the introductory paragraph instead of having it inside the “Sculptures” subsection. It seems more relevant there.

2. Much of the page feels squished by all the pictures/sidebars. Seems cluttered to me.

3. Make an outline for what the rest of your article will be. Gives a feel for the scope and whether you will need more sources.

4. I would recommend a section about the terracottas and their illegal status on the international art market.

I like what you did to the introduction. It seems much more formal as an introduction to the rest of the article. All of your little changes to what was there before make the article feel much more scholarly. The preliminary archaeology section is a great start to the improvement/expansion of this article. I would recommend a section on what the general significance of Nok culture is today. Given the improvements that have already been made, you’re on the right track.

I like the pictures and all the descriptions of the sites and the pottery. You have a good start to the repatriations section, I would also like to see a section about why the repatriation is necessary, so how/what/when are people stealing?DaFlyingFishmonger (talk) 19:08, 16 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
