Hey Emily,

After looking over your article I was amazed at how well done it was. From my perspective I thought it was very well written, even though I'm not to sure what Wikipedia is looking for. I wanted to say that you used perfect sources for your material that you covered and I think you'll benifit from it in the end. When looking at how much YOU contributed to the article, Wiki is showing that you did almost 3 times the work than your partner. I don't know if this is true, but that how it looks. I would have liked to seen more of an effort from your partners end, but that still doesn't take away from the essence of your article.

Also I made very few changes grammatically, because I think you are an excellent writer and it shows in this article.

Hello Stephen!

Thank you for the compliments! I am not sure why Wikipedia is showing that I did most of the work because I would say my partner and I divided the work quite evenly. Perhaps it because we are using my page for the publication. Anyway, we appreciate your feedback!

Gender in Politics Article

Hello,

I think this is a really well written article! I think this really adds to this section as a whole about gender. I did not see any major changes that need to be made with this article, I think you are pretty set to go! The only advice I have is just to be sure that you don't assume the audience knows prior information. Making statements like, "It is pretty well known that....." may not be true, because not everyone is as educated as you may be. Otherwise, great job! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Schneids.10 (talk • contribs) 22:53, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

Gender in Politics Peer Review

Hi Emily!

I think that you and your partner did a wonderful job explaining the perspectives our culture has on women in politics and how women are judged differently according to US culture as a wider audience. I think that the section titled, "Steps Needed for Change", starts an interesting discussion when it begins presenting the idea of diffusing gender norms "through 'gender-balanced decision-making'" but I think the section is missing how that is actually implemented and where it can be implemented. Audiences might wonder how a group can actually about balances decision-making based on gender. Are there initiatives in place that do this?

Overall, very well written, very good connections to gender and politics, great research. I just wondered about that one sentence and how it can be elaborated or maybe linked with another source to elaborate.
