You Have done a Grater job at adding new info as well as organizing it well. you add more images which is nice to see. the tone is neutral and just tells us about the building. overall I think you did a good job at giving an article new life. Epicthem8 (talk) 22:33, 9 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Added a peer review to your Great House page. Good work organizing the stub page, but I am unsure whether your added images adhere to Wikipedia copyright rules. Please double-check this or your contributions may be removed. Tdavis47 (talk) 00:23, 10 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hello, first off i like to say your chosen article topic is very interesting in terms of its historical content and its approach to architecture. not many students recognize that there are much older forms of structures from indigenous communities in the past that can constitute as architecture. most of these historical sites were either sacred grounds, burial sites or simply a housing location. for the introductory paragraph, it would have been great to see better phrasing as the introduction is a key component in drawing the users attention to read more on the Great House. In the History and Purpose segment i know its hard to find scholarly information especially on sites such as those in the Chaco Canyon. maybe if there was more information on the Chaco Canyon and the Pueblo people, this segment would've flowed spectacularly. The design segment of the article is the best part so far. there is plenty of information regarding the structure and its significance. regarding the influence of the Great House it wouldve been great to add more information on Mary colter and her work with Hopi Houses. it wouldn't have to be too explanatory but maybe comparing the design she had in mind and the comparing of the structures themselves, the Great House and the Hopi houses she created in the Grand Canyon. this is overall a great edit to the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dmakeshi (talkcontribs) 05:19, 10 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
