Hey Maggie,

Good article so far, there's a lot of great content! As far as suggestions go, maybe include more discussion of archives outside of Europe. I saw your note on expanding the Middle East Section and I think it's a useful area to write on as there's not a lot about archives outside of Europe in the literature I've read. It also might be worthwhile to discuss other communities in Europe such as Eastern Orthodox or Byzantium (If possible, I'm not familiar with extent of the literature on such topics.) It might be helpful to have more discussion about the types of records kept in medical archives. Some interesting religious artifacts appeared during my own research. I'm going to link your page on my own as well. There'e also some odd sentences and grammar issues in the page that can be taken care of during a final edit.

Yes, I will do an edit for grammar later this week.

I will look into Eastern Orthodox / Byzantine archives, though I can't promise that I will add them. I may add a section on "Other Religious Archives" but I shall see what kind of information I find.

I'll also take a closer look at your page and see if there is anything I can use there.

Hey Maggie,

With regards to others pages and religious archives, do you think linking to the early modern page would work? I'm not sure logistically because you link to the page later but the early modern page has a nice section on religious archives that bridges the gap between your page and mine (which is 20th century to present focus) Maybe put faith-based archives in a "See Also" section but that's only a suggestion. Keep up the good work!

I linked to the "Religious Institutions" section of Morgan's article (Early Modern) underneath my "Religious Archives" section. I don't know if there is such thing as having too many pages in the "See Also" section. I included yours in the "Religious Archives" section though.
