I've listed this article for peer review because I think that I have exhausted my translation sources, and with my trip there still far away, would like to know either: What to reaserch over there, or what to add before I go. I personally think the grammer is not up to par, and that a couple of the paras (economy and famous people) aren't top notch also

Gimme a month, there's more sources oh history than I can digest in a shorter time (too bad sometimes it's not easy to tell these Bronnitsy from other places of the same name so any source must be double-checked).

Finetooth comments: This article is interesting but, as you say, is just getting started. Its main problem at the moment is a complete lack of sourcing. Please see WP:V and WP:RS for details. WP:FOOT explains how to embed inline citations in the text.

Sourcing. My rule of thumb is to provide a source for every direct quotation, every set of statistics, every claim that has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, and at least one source for each paragraph.

Images. It sounds as if you will be in Bronnitsy perhaps later in 2010. If I were going, I'd take my digital camera and bring back lots of images of Bronnitsy to choose from. Impressive buildings, sports complexes, government buildings, skyline shots of the main street(s), parks, the river, schools, or anything else that appears (or might appear) in the article are possibilities.

Ideas for expansion: Health care (hospitals), airports, railway stations, climate, geology, employment statistics, churches, theaters, art galleries or other art venues such as concert halls, river infrastructure such as loading docks, bridges, crime statistics, local government, media, demographic data beyond bare population figures, history of the area before 1453 (if known). If there's a local newspaper and you read Russian, you will have a reliable source perhaps for data about some of these things. Having never been to Russia, I don't know how much printed data will be available to you.

Have a good trip. Good luck with the article. I hope these few suggestions prove helpful in some way. Finetooth (talk) 03:13, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
