We received a lot of great comments on our progress. The most important thing is adding more content to the characteristics of the language itself (Phonology, Morphology, etc.) I did see someone comment that we should try and add a few pictures, so I can try and look for some. I'm thinking of finding a map to visualize where the language is spoken if possible. There are a few sentences in the intro that are not cited so we should maybe try and add that too.

The insight my peers have provided in their peer evaluations has given me direction and clarity. Their suggestions have influenced what I want to add to the article and how I want to present it. Specifically, I will work on adding information to the section on phonology. By reading the source provided to me, I have learned that my assigned language, Moloko, is unique with respect to vowels and how they are realized phonetically. In addition to phonology, I think that more can be added to the section on morphology. Isand4 (talk) 18:51, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

WikiEd Students: Peer Review

Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?

Yes. Everything in the article is relevant to the topic. There was nothing that distracted me.

Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?

Yes. The article is neutral and the sources used are from neutral organizations.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?

No. There is not enough information on the page yet.

Check the citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?

Links to citations work, even if some are behind a paywall. With a cursory glance at the sources I was able to find support for claims in the article.

Is each fact supported by an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?

There are two sentences that are not referenced, however they are followed by referenced sentences. Specifically this sentence...

The Melokwo (8,500 speakers) traditionally inhabit the Moloko massif, an inselberg isolated in the plain, east of the Mandara Mountains, between the Mayo-Mangafé River and Mayo-Ranéo River.

There is no citation for the information regarding the location of the "Moloko massif".

Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that should be added?

The information contained in the article seems up to date.
