Cbeedy's Student Review for Feral Cat

I have finished the review on your article contributation.

Topic Section

The topic section is very well done for this Article to fit in where you mentioned adding it into paragraph 3. I feel that this is a nice segway into the following paragraph in the main article since that gives more information on the sterilization rates and the populations.

Content

The content is sound, I feel this has a lot of information that adds to the main article that was present in the prior sections. While I do not know a lot about feral cats, I feel the way that the content of what you wrote, I have learned more about the subject matter.

Tone and Balance

The tone and balance are done extremely well also, This is an informative neutral flow to it. When parts seem to be becoming opinionated ethics, you back them up with where the information was found, so it is not being seen as this is your outlook on the matter. I like how you pointed out that you noticed a section that another contributor posted that you feel does not fit in the article. How you mentioned handling "strays" is a great way to ask other fellow contributors their thoughts on the matter. This way this someone will not see it as a start of an edit war.

Sources and References

You have a nice start with references that ties in well to support your claims. I also like how you included that you recognized the issue with the missing parts in the citations. I had a few issues with mine, that are similar to yours. What I did was, I went to the University of Albany's Library site to find different links to the same article. If I was getting the same error, I would try to find the DOI number and go to the source and adjust the information that I could manually. This most of the time was an issue with the date format of the article.

Organization and writing quality

Your organization and quality of writing seem to fit in will with the quality that is already present in the current article. I feel that continuing in this way you should have a great article piece to contribute to the world.

Images and Media I do not think you would be able to share that image and is most likely copyrighted. You may have some luck here finding a picture that would go along with your article. https://search.creativecommons.org/

Talk page discussion As you mentioned you would ask the one question in talk about "strays", but I feel that the talk group or the teahouse could help answer you questions you have.

Overall impressions I thinking the overall job done on this article is exemplary and very well done. Honestly, I did not see anything wrong that you have not already pointed out. The spelling, grammar, tone, etc. all worked well.

 This was really helpful and made me more confident to publish my changes. Thank you. Jmm26 (talk) 23:08, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

WCI-Peer Review

Malika772 (talk) 16:50, 9 March 2021 (UTC)I think you need to connect feral cats to the American veterinary medical association in a more clean way when you start your conversation.In the first section you state “while still acknowledging that there are many ways of headlining how to best manage feral cats” is almost opinionated and awkward. I think your use of commas in the middle section is almost confusing.

I think you could add more information on national feral cat day. Background information on this day would help understand why it is added and is important.

I feel that more links for the different associations would also be helpful since I know nothing about any of the organizations. Could not find reference 1, 2, 4 through links provided. Link 3 worked and I see your citation in 5. 5 would be easier with a link also provided.

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions. I will work on them. Jmm26 (talk) 23:09, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

Peer Review Response

Hello, you are the user who peer-reviewed my suggested edits to the "brain in a vat" Wikipedia article. Your review was great. I have a bit of a tendency to write in a more complicated fashion than necessary, so your suggestions to rewrite certain sentences for clarity were particularly helpful. Besides that, I see now that I've overlooked a few basic grammatical things too, so those suggestions were helpful as well. In general, you seem very knowledgeable in this area and your suggestions forced me to more deeply reflect on why I chose to write certain things and why I chose to write them a certain way.
