FEEDBACK FROM PROF MCCLANAN: The draft in the sandbox on the Dagulf Psalter is really well-developed, all that remains for you now is some minor fine-tuning.

The opening section is clear and appropriately comprehensive in scope

History: The first paragraph needs to be framed from the beginning in a way that makes it more clear how the historical context informs our understanding of the mss (so it doesn’t feel like filler) More terms and names can be linked to other Wikipedia entries, such as Speyer

Minor mechanical issue: 11th century accounting should be “11th-century accounting” (also: “4th-century translation”) Another one: Psalms and God would typically be capitalized

Image: Nachbildung (in caption of image) means replica so I’d leave that one out, but why not pull the other two over from the German Wikipedia entry on your topic?

Codex: This is the section that could be expanded if you had more material, since it’s the heart of the entry

References: please include more info on the Holcomb diss., in particular, the title. Source #5 can be omitted, since saying where the mss is currently counts as common knowledge that doesn’t have to be cited (and the link to library site is a little inscrutable as a source)

Feedback from Kenan Koenig[edit]

It looks like you have a really solid start...and perhaps not too far from completion. For me personally, it is really important when I read something like this that it is easy to follow and not too cluttered. The way you have laid out your text with the attached photo is very clean and uncluttered (easy to visually digest.) I don't believe I can offer any constructive critique or suggestions. - Kenan — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kenan Koenig (talkcontribs) 07:12, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
