Separate sections edit

There should be a mini-article on each project within the Plan, with a link to the full article.

I have a better understanding of the Oahe project and can start that.

Cadillac Desert will probably help this page out and expand its information.

In the Sloan plan I would maybe try to find more information and details, especially because you said his plan was more intricate. Also, I feel like with encyclopedias people may start reading at a certain heading, so maybe treat "The Sloan Plan" as its own entry instead of comparing it so much to Pick's plan. For example, if someone only wanted to know about Sloan's plan they would start there and when you say "One year later" the reader wouldn't know what that means.

Under "The Omaha Conference" I would reword the sentence "The compromise allowed the Corps of Engineers to retain control over flood control and navigation projects and five main-stem dams" it is kind of confusing to read and uses control two times close together and a lot of "and"s.


Very nice article!! The only other thing I can think of is maybe another image to add to your article possibly!

Some of the wording is a bit complex. You could focus on shortening the first sentence so it is more understandable on the first read.

Great use of internal links throughout the article!

I'm wondering if there could be more information added in some sections. Seems like Native American Relocation could be more talked about.
