Hi, this is Yuwei Han. I read your leading section, and here are some small suggestions. Overall, your lead section is clear and good. 1: I changed the spelling of "furthermore". 2: I changed the order of reference into A-Z (APA style). 3: It is good that you mentioned the location of the group of the language, can you find the location of the Kanza language exactly when it existed? (If possible) 4: Can you describe how does the language extinct? It is a little bit wired that those people do not have a new generation. Is that possible, their language is replaced by a new one? 5: If possible, you can introduce the language structure shortly in the lead section. 6: It is also good to give some hyperlinks to some words, which makes them more clear. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yuwei Han (talk • contribs) 03:13, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

Peer Review #2

Hi! I am Noah Hoffman and I just took a look at your work. I believe that you are off to a good start. Your lead section is generally clear and concise, but I have a few suggestions and comments.

1) I removed the word "furthermore" because it was an unnecessary word to use in that sentence. I believe the sentence is more concise now. 2) With regard to your lead section, there may be room to add some more information. For example, if there are any efforts/initiatives to revitalize your language I would make note of them. If you plan on discussing grammar, phonology, pitch, or the structure of the language I would mention that, as well. 3) The sources you have are legitimate and the citations seem correct. Since you mentioned that the language is extinct, it makes sense that resources are scarce. However, it may be worth it to check the Rutgers library (or another reliable search engine) for more resources you could use. 4) I added a header for your bibliography. To make a header, you just need to add (==) before typing. I recommend that you start outlining your article with more headers to get a better idea of where your article is going. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Njh46 (talk • contribs) 19:57, 7 April 2017 (UTC)
