Overall evaluation[edit]

The classmate that I was assigned to peer edited decided contribute more information onto the Crusades section. My partner did an excellent job in maintaining a neutral tone while not showing any form of bias instead provides a clear and thorough piece. The passage was straightforward, informative and eligible. My partner mainly used secondary sources, which was unique because the live page mainly had primary sources. My partner only using historical and academic books balances the usage of primary and secondary sources to the main page. The only issue is that he needs to fix some of his citations so when he moves his sandbox to the live page, it'll be more reliable for the readers. Overall, the passage was relevant to the main article and neatly organized.- Jackielupinblack
