Ms. Kelly,

first of all, I am torn: I love your Wiki, yet I hate that it makes mine look so paltry and desperate. Thank you for going above and beyond and adding not one but two more case studies (I don't know how you do it: spoiling us while making us look bad for not putting in the same effort); within the context, you've done a great job providing us with very diverse example, and I definitely feel like I am getting a fulsome picture of your topic. Your case studies are really fleshed out and I like them a lot!

One thing I am wondering about: do you think "Challenges" and "Contemporary Issues" would be better wedded instead of separate islands? I kind of feel that they are similar enough (privacy concerns could definitely be in the "contemporary issues" section) to do so that it would make for more cohesion in this part, which is also one of your Wiki's strengths might I add.

With your images, it is a very well-balanced Wiki in terms of looks, and a nice and easy but highly informative read. Looking forward to reading this on Saturday morning

Take care,

V

Hi Victor,

Thanks for the feedback. I've taken your suggestion and moved privacy concerns to the contemporary issues section as it fits better there. I have thought about combining the two sections. I kept Challenges and Contemporary Issues separate so far because I felt the subject matters were intellectually different e.g. lack of professional staff, storage and training vs. issues such as scandals or non-traditional communities. I've struggled to find the the proper heading titles. I could put something "Practical Challenges" and "Contemporary Archival Issues" to better reflect that.
