Notes

edit

Hi! I have some notes on your draft. Overall this is very good - it just needs some fine tuning.

  • Avoid persuasive/leading terms like "perhaps", as they come across as original research - even if you're summarizing the content that's in the sources. (On a side note, we can only summarize what's already stated in the sourcing rather than create new conclusions based on the material, as in an academic paper.)
  • I would also avoid words like "notable" since those can be subjective to the reader - someone may have a differing opinion on this. Since the section header is already titled provisions, the notable is unnecessary. Also, them being listed kind of gives off the impression that these are major and important.
  • Make sure that all quotes are sourced - the quote "facing sudden and severe economic dislocations" isn't sourced.
  • Finally, continue to find sourcing for the article - definitely check your school's academic database to see what they have. It would be a good idea to have a section on academic and scholarly opinions on the act.

That said, this is really well done - keep up the good work! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:01, 11 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
