Commentary

Hi Ms. Mills,

first of all, thank you for the shoutout and link to my wiki, it was a nice surprise to see my humble little wiki in your "See Also" section, the favour will happily be returned. As someone who has studied colonialism and post-colonialism, I am really happy to see this wiki and that, of all people, you are working on it given your background and work with First Nations - and as you mentioned, one of the communities where repatriation is a big issue.

Great explanation of the difference between made/about/in/of. This section gives a really good primer on the issue. I really like the areas you've chosen to cover, especially the parts about methods and private holdings. I just feel that a lot of people (but maybe I am just talking about myself here) don't know enough about this area of archives, and in general, and it's great that we're covering it for this project - as opposed to an essay no one else is going to read.

I don't have much in terms of what you could change to make it "better", I just want to let you know that after having read your wiki I am thinking of ways to incorporate some of your material into mine, as I can see the connection with advocacy. If anything, just hurry up and finish it so I can read the completed wiki sooner.

Take care,

V

Hi Victor, Thanks very much for the feedback! I hope you can come up with some ways to incorporate some of the material here into your page. I definitely see a connection between advocacy and repatriation, even if it's in a bit of a roundabout way sometimes. Allison
