Summary of my Reasearch

For the Lorraine Wild article, I would like to add more information about her life, awards, accolades, and other notable accomplishments that she has had. Her current Wikipedia page has very limited resources and does not do her justice. Before this class, I had no idea of who Lorraine Wild was nor did I know anything about graphic designers. After researching for several weeks and reading various websites and articles, I have learned that Lorraine Wild is not only a graphic designer but she is highly regarded as one of the top graphic designers of her time. Aside from designing, Lorraine Wild is also an author and writer for various designing books. For her article page, I would like to add, in addition to her awards and accomplishments, a little bit of her biography, photos of her works, and hopefully photos of her if I will be allowed to. I have found many speeches about her from award presentations and from her own presentations that I would also like to be a part of her Wikipedia page. Upon my research, I had trouble finding sources that cited her work in books so I had to research via the internet where I came across articles, documents, excerpts, and short pieces on Lorraine Wild that would benefit my article on her. Also, the question of where designers get their ideas from and their influences has always been a question of mine and upon further research I hope to include the answers to these questions of Lorraine Wild into my article.

1st review

Hello, Jckulas. You were able to find an in depth and vast timeline on Wild's life. Break it down as you find out more in your research, so it doesn't seem like just a listing of dates and accomplishments. Eventually, you will be able to provide more information and focus on her major contributions to graphic design. I did notice that you had a lot of sources on your talk page--definitely utilize them more so in future edits. I included in a few spots, but they need to be more frequent since we are writing in the Wikipedia environment. For example, "In 1983, she wrote "More Than A Few Questions About Graphic Design Education," which was regarded as a very influential essay." Just expand on how/why and include the reference. Some things to consider to add later on: info box. Feel free to follow other examples already on Wikipedia. Otherwise, everything was done well and in a neutral voice. Just be sure to include more citations. If you have any questions about my edits, message me back here or on my talk page. --Nboffa (talk) 06:18, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Close Paraphrasing

A substantial amount of the wording from the article comes from her medalist essay. I believe that the main editor is trying to do the right thing here (e.g. not plagiarizing) but the editor need to put sources for each claim (e.g. each sentence) to cite where sourced. So in this case, to prove that this is not just one big paraphrase of the sentences from that one AIGA essay, but are in fact combining facts and info from multiple sources! --Theredproject (talk) 02:08, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
