comments on sandbox about spreadability

Hi Morgan, it's a pity that I can't be in your class on Friday. But please let me give a few general remarks about what you've done in your sandbox until now:

This really looks very good, already. It's well written, good structured. And I'm getting curious to the parts that you're still working on. You have ambitious plans.
The most common practice on Wikipedia is to start the article with a kind of definition, in one or two lines (if possible in your own words). And then give the “historic” context: so when was the concept coined etc. Could you perhaps rearrange the first paragraph a bit in this sense?
I can't find a reference to Jenkins 1992 and to Jordan 2015, who you mention in the first paragraph. I suppose it's this Henry Jenkins. So link him! Same for Tim_Jordan_(sociologist). This makes the article a much better starting point for future scholarly research.
And in general: add more wiki-links in your text. For instance to Web 2.0, Participatory_culture, and so on, and so on.
Don't you think it a good idea to make some external links in a separate paragraph at the end, for instance to [1], and sites like that?
Finally, you may already start with “linking back” from other articles on Wikipedia to your article, for instance in the article about Jenkins. Add a small text here in which you point to the concept of spreadability, and make a link already.

Hi,

I have moved the text in the sandbox (after some editing) into the main namespace: Spreadability. Greetings, --Dick Bos (talk) 10:53, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
