week 2/Kart Racing/Lewis9763

1. the article I assigned myself is Kart Racing, which is a sport I am very interested into. As I was skimming through the page, i found most of the information new and useful, but there is one place I offered a comment where I thought was not right due to my own experience of racing and kart racing. 2.https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kart_racing&oldid=968391809 3.https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kart_racing&diff=prev&oldid=968391809 4.I do learned how to edit and see the difference between edits by different editors on the page. Lewis9763 (talk) 03:27, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

Week 2 / Evaluate and Copyedit Article / Yixin97

1. The article I evaluated is Shanghai Disneyland Park. I am a fan of Disney so I choose this article. This article is rated Start-class. It is concise but needs more images of attractions so that readers can be more impressive by the information.

2. The link to my article evaluation: User:Yixin97/Evaluate an Article

3. The link to the Talk page where I offered a comment: Talk:Shanghai Disneyland Park

4. The link to the diff of the article I copyedited: Disneyland Park: Difference between revisions

5. It is increasing to evaluate and copyedit in the wiki. Creating a good article in the wiki is not easy as I think before. Articles need to hold a neutral point of view and all the information should be from a reliable secondary source. Yixin97 (talk) 03:04, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

Yixin97, Nice edit and overall assignment. Keep up the solid effort! FULBERT (talk) 15:46, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
