Introduction

Introduction

Hey Chelsea! I think you should add a brief synopsis to the beginning that floats along side the table of contents it would look really nice and give people a good idea of what they are getting into! What you have right now is great but the first section is a little dense to work as an introduction.

Best of luck!

Hi, Robert!

Thanks for your suggestion, which definitely echos some of the other feedback I have gotten (and will get started on just as soon as I finish one more paper!). I definitely have density problem with my writing generally, and it is especially noticeable in a wiki format, so lots of dividing into sub-sections to come, as well as providing a more succinct introduction. So intro text floating along side next to the table of content, huh? How does one accomplish that little piece of formatting magic? If you have tips, let me know!

To modify Rob's suggestion slightly -- maybe have a brief introduction above the list of contents? I plan on doing the same for my page, so when I figure out how to do that, I'll let you know! Very interesting and informative page on performing arts archives! I agree that some of the sections seem a little long and could be broken down a bit. I'm not sure how helpful the following suggestions are, so feel free to ignore if they don't fit your creative vision :) You could have a category on professional groups for performing arts archivists; there is some information on this at the end of your intro section and you might be able to pull stuff from elsewhere to flesh it out a little bit more.

Hi, Alexandra!

Thank you for the suggestion about adding a section on professional groups, which I hadn't through about. What would you like about adding the information you mentioned at the bottom of the first section to the top of the list of professional organizations at the bottom, or bringing that list of professional organizations up to earlier in the article?
