Hi Mike!

I decided to peer-review your article. Great work so far! You've got a great basis for your article, and seem to have all your ducks in a row in terms of the structure of the argument, which is awesome to see. Here's a list of a couple of things that I noticed that you could improve.

  • You should include a hyperlink to Treaty 6, or at least explain a little bit about what it is.
  • There seems to be a bit of a disconnect between your third line and your fourth line. I can't put my finger on exactly what it is, but you should reword it a little to make it a bit clearer - that might help a bit.
  • Like I mentioned above regarding the hyperlink, you should include more of those. By linking your article together with other ones, it helps to make the article seem more professional and "encyclopedic", to use a word from the assignment instructions.

Other than that, there isn't much more that I can see. Great work so far! Keep it up and you're going to have a great article. James.Gough.93 (talk) 04:27, 15 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
