Forum:Review

It seems that everyone here is very interested in expanding the database of stories and other fiction we have on this site. It has gotten to the point where our apparent quantity is far beyond our apparent quality. I know this may sound hard, but maybe it's about time we start working on making reviews? As in telling where things could be improved, any criticisms, as well as any strong points that the author may consider holding on to in future works. We need to begin reviewing others' works, like what other online societies are doing, if we hope to keep interest in newcomers. This is because people are more likely to contribute if they stand a chance of getting feedback on their work. I know from my own experiences that this is true, and possibly for the majority of contributors on this site as well.

So here's what I'm suggesting: after reading part of a work of fiction, go on discussion pages, click on the + tab, and add the review header (easy access via the edit tools below the save page/showpreview/showchanges row on the edit pages) to the summary. Then just type in a brief review, and finish with your signature... Yunzhong  Hou  5000+ edits 21:42, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
