Advertisement / Sources
[edit]As currently written the article seems an awful lot like a promotional piece or an advertisement. I was considering nominating this page for deletion, but I found a bunch of stories in reliable sources that show this organization is, at least locally, notable. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
Hopefully someone can use these to improve the article; I'm not able to right now. Livit⇑Eh?/What? 23:25, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
Review
[edit]The article is off to a good start. I like how you included the foundation's purpose, and you included a nice, brief history. I noticed you used "habitatforhope.org" as one of your references. I also found this reference very useful. In your article, there are many things could be added to give your article some extra body. The Habitat for Hope has a large section on their website about "how people can get help". In your article, you could list some of the ways in which people can receive help through Habitat for Hope. The website lists ways people contact the foundation. The website also contains information about "how people can help" the foundation. There are ways to donate, volunteer, and help with wish lists. All of this information can be found on their website, and it would strengthen your article. Alanacrabb (talk) 00:32, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
Ref/Current Events
[edit]The page is set up well, and you give a lot of good information. I would try to find a few more reliable references to add to the sections. For example, you could look for current events or newspaper articles about Habitat for Hope on commercial Appeal or another website. I also think that you should add how to get involved with it, and how people are currently involved. On the website there is a link, 'In the News" that gives current events about several high schools that are involved in the organization. Overall, I believe it's a very good page.
