Review
editHello, Leah. After reading your article regarding the Kuvi language in your sandbox, there were a few strong and weak points. While I read your lead and it seemed to have a brief overall discussion of the main idea of your piece, I wish it had some more information regarding the language as well as the background of it as it does not leave me all that interested in the rest of the article. Also there was some awkward wording that I edited, but in the future would make sure to proofread and ensure there is an encyclopedic tone paired with your writing. As is present on many other wikipedia pages, I would also make attempts to provide links to external wikipedia pages when it comes to keywords and when possible. In terms of your bibliography, you have gathered plenty of sources all of which seem to be scholarly and promising in terms of having value to your topic. I look forward to seeing the progression of your article.
