Talk:Conservation and restoration of Mesoamerican codices

Latest comment: 5 years ago by Daniel Cull

I am fairly sure you're planning on doing this anyway, but, do change the internal links so that they are properly formatted as internal links and not hyperlinks.

It's looking really good, no major comments, just looking forward to seeing the final version. --Daniel Cull (talk) 20:39, 3 May 2019 (UTC)Reply


This article is looking really good. Some comments:

1) Work on your introduction. First move it so it's above the contents page. Then remember to introduce what the actual conservation activity is first, not it's benefit.

2) The one obvious thing missing is images. Some of the codice pages you link to in Wikipedia have images (you can also use those images) and another source of images might be https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

3) The next obvious thing missing is many links to other wikipedia pages using the internal system [[ put word here ]]

Some to consider linking include: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_and_restoration_of_cultural_heritage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoamerican_literature https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preservation_%28library_and_archival_science%29 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoamerican_writing_systems https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borgia_Group

I am sure you can find many more pages to link to...do note that many of which also have useful images.

3) You need to add a heading that says "references".

4) In your non-invasive section. Remove the links from the sub-headings and instead link the same words with the sentence that summarizes the technique as that will look a lot neater. If you're unclear how to link a word that isn't the title what you do is word I want to use in sentence remove spaces.

Is this codex similar to the ones you are discussing? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huexotzinco_Codex

This link is useful too, it is written in an encyclopedic way https://www.khanacademy.org/humanities/art-americas/early-cultures/aztec-mexica/a/codex-borgia
