Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Ladybugenthusiast, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.
I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Fragments
[edit]
I moved your draft back to your sandbox - it isn't ready to be moved to mainspace. Have a look at pages 7-9 of the Editing Wikipedia brochure (linked here) to get a sense of what an article should look like.
You also can't use Wikipedia as a source for Wikipedia articles. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:44, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- I moved it back again because it's still not ready. I removed language that was promotional and tagged a couple opinions that need to be attributed to the person expressing them (they can't be stated in Wikipedia's voice as facts). I also removed several more uses of Wikipedia as a source. I also added "citation needed" tags to places where statements lack sources.
- On a more fundamental level though, I don't think the article achieves its goal - it isn't about "Fragments". The "Biography and legacy" section is about Graves herself - that isn't needed, since she already has a biography that you link to.
- The sections of "Aerial landscapes" only discusses Graves in half a sentence,
Nancy Graves is included within that group. In regards to aerial landscape art,
and doesn't discuss "Fragments" at all. You need to focus this section on "Fragments" and report on the way sources have described "Fragments" as an aerial landscape. Anything else about aerial landscapes should only be used to help readers understand the context of the painting itself. (Anyone who wants to know more can click over to the aerial landscape art article. - The "feminism and postmodernism" section describes neither Graves nor "Landscapes". You can use it to describe how reliable sources have used those models to analyze "Fragments", but everything that's currently there is irrelevant. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:00, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
- The "Formal analysis" section is unsourced. You also should focus on describing what sources say about the painting, not directly speaking to the reader. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:18, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the being so quick to review the article. After almost an entire semester of research on this piece I have unfortunately found that there are no sources about this specific painting. I included this to compensate for that. Does that impair the ability for this article to stay live? Ladybugenthusiast (talk) 00:44, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
