Dear Jenny, please correct your link to your powerpoint presentation (it does not work yet) and still work on the article. Now it is still a little bit too descriptive and too short. The final version should be 7 pages without the earlier contributor's part. The two long poems are good, but do not count as part of the paper. Please do not only describe things, but also switch to the commentator role (maybe indicated by "Contemporary Commentator" and then evaluate and discuss the topic from different angles, put it into context, criticize etc.). If you want to write less, you can integrate more pictures. Please make sure to indicate your source after each sentence or, if there is a whole paragraph with the same source, after each paragraph. You can indicate it like "Smith 2009:345" and in the final section "References" write the long version "Smith, Jared, Confucius revisted, Yale University Press 2009, 415 pp." In the edit mode, section headers are indicated with "=" and sub section headers with "==". In the edit mode, paragraphs need to be marked with 2 line feeds ("Enter" key). 1 Line feed will not show up as a paragraph. For additional editing tips, including how to indicate sources and how to find copyright free pictures, please refer to [http://wiki.vm.rub.de/uvu/index.php/uvu:Community_Portal]. Good luck with your composition!

| − | Jenny, It is a pretty good page with lots of information. I think that if you gave a biography that consisted of more than just bullet points that would be more interesting to read. More pictures would also be pretty great to look at while reading. Tao Yuanming was super cool and you do a good job of showing that. | + | Jenny, It is a pretty good page with lots of information.

Perhaps separate the presentation from your references? Because I don't think, the powerpoint is a reference... I'm not sure though. --Meh 07:08, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
