"Choose 3-5 potential articles" assignment''

1. I thought I could edit Twenty One Pilots since I've followed them for a few years now and I know a lot about the band/their music. Also, there was an alert at the top of the article that said it has multiple issues and needs additional citations for clarification. I'm sure it would be easy and enjoyable for me find sources on this topic.

2. Another option is A Little Life because this is my favorite book and I think it could benefit from more information in the "Reception" section. I know that I've read several reviews of the book and interviews with the author that were not mentioned and could be valuable additions for this section.

3. Another option is the article American University. I think it would be fun to research the history behind the school that I'll be attending for the next four years. Also, there's an alert that says one section contains content that sounds like an advertisement, so I could help by removing extra links and promotional content.

Peer Review:

I think you do a good job keeping the tone neutral so if you continue to add more to the article then try to keep up that tone. I like that the additions you did make, although not major, definitely help to add more context to the article and are 100% worthy to add.

The only major issue I see is that some of the citation links after phrases in the text don’t work so make sure they all do before you insert them into the actual article.

As for things you could add to the article, i think it would be beneficial to find the article where Tyler Joseph talks about the Stressed Out Lyric change and try to see if you could add any new sections to further contribute to the article

Also I don’t know if you just forgot to specify but the last sentence about their genre would probably work great in the section titled “Musical Style and Influences" Sa9812a (talk) 03:30, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

Response to peer review:

Thank you for your thoughts! I will definitely look into the links further to make sure that they work and maybe even find some new sources. I think that for a band that has gained so much success in the past year or so the article seems pretty short, so I'll also look into adding more sections like you said. I also think that I can definitely contribute more to the "Musical Style and Influence" section.

Thanks again for the constructive criticism,

Amanda
