Comments

[edit]

I'm an online ambassador for your WMST 250: Women, Art, and Culture (2014 Q3) class and have just stopped by to provide a quick review and add what I hope will be helpful comments.

You've done some great work on this article. You provide good background and career information and a nice list of her major works. It is generally written in an encyclopedic tone, often has citations, and the citations are created in the correct format.

Some suggestions are:

  • Perhaps editing this to be a little less redundant: "She typically does not photograph strangers or people on the streets but rather friends, family, and a lot of children. She is more interested in capturing people around her that she knows and herself, as well.[1] She has also taken architecture photography and fashion photography. Her films often include a cast of family members, friends, colleagues, and sometimes male strangers." -- Maybe something like: Most of Kubelka's photographs and films are made of friends, family members, colleagues and children. She also had taken self-portraits and architecture and fashion photography.
  • If you want to add an image, you should be able to add one "fair use" image.
  • You may also want to add a Further reading section. See World Cat options.
  • Was she really born in London? Just wondering since her childhood was spent in Vienna and East Berlin - before moving to London.

I'll check in on you again, and I'll be watching this page if you have any questions or comments.--CaroleHenson (talk) 01:36, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • You may want to take a look at Janise Yntema for a sense of what an introduction or lede would look like. Wikipedia articles start with a "lead" section, which is a short summary of everything in the article. For some articles this summary can be a few paragraphs. Others (like Yntema's article and probably this one) can be a few sentences long.--CaroleHenson (talk) 03:50, 4 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I moved this over from the sandbox page since some of this still applies. Nice addition to the lede.--CaroleHenson (talk) 21:11, 10 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Great Overview

[edit]

Hi, I overall enjoyed the background information you provided for this artist, I did feel like you could explain her role within a feminist movement better. Especially, at the beginning, so I did add some information at the first part of the Article on her involvement within the Feminist Actionism. You may want to talk more about her work within a feminist movement. Other than that, it was a really informing piece, I especially liked how you combined her life and work in one as I feel that her art is really influenced by her life and that's very evident from your style of writing in this article.

Peer Review

[edit]

As Clavaden said, I think your article is really well written. I do not have any suggestions other than maybe you could put the dates under the Major Works category in parentheses, otherwise I think your article is done well. Cpontell1 (talk) 00:51, 10 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Great Article

[edit]

This is a very well-rounded article that is written well and has a lot of good information regarding your topic. I searched it thoroughly to find something to suggest or edit, but could not find any glaring issues. This is well written, and you have a lot of information on your person's personal and professional life. Great job! Rungos (talk) 17:32, 23 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
