Deer Creek

edit

Hi Korinn,

Sorry I didn't see this earlier. You can create a "Deer Creek (El Dorado County, California)" page but I'm concerned about the amount of material you will able to gather. Are there a lot of historical sources or current issues that you'll be drawing on? If you think there's enough out there, go ahead with your outline for Monday, otherwise you should consider another page. Your other potential topics also seem pretty specific, though Mercury Pollution in California Water Bodies could be deep enough to make a fantastic page. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_pollution_in_the_ocean for reference.

Outline Review

edit

HI Korinn, Overall, i think your outline structure looks good. I know pretty little about your topic, so based on your headers, it looks like you are going to cover a lot of important info. Obviously you're still working on getting the initial info and sources down, so i can wait to assess that later! As for what you have now, I don't think you will need a conclusion, as the reader will be able to come up with their own, based on the info you've given! Ill review this again, once you have more info in. :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hannahmaedunn (talkcontribs) 05:13, 20 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
