Talk:Temple of Isis at Pompeii

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Your article is highly detailed, however you need to make references to other subjects in Wikipedia if you choose not to give a frame of reference to specific people/places/events.

Also, I know that it is difficult to find images that are not copyrighted, but you can provide links to credible websites that provide pictures of the temple and the wall painting and murals inside of it.

Furthermore, what was the purpose of the temple? What type of activities went on there. Who exactly was Isis?

If you address these areas I think that your article will be perfect.

The type and amount of information on this page is perfect for a Wikipedia article. It's exactly what I would be looking for if I searched such a topic on Wikipedia. My suggestions: 1) You may want to divide your article into sections such as History, Importance, Structure, etc. to make it easier to read. 2) Adding links to words like Isis and Capitolium would be nice for those looking for more details. You could also add a link to the Museo Archeologico. 3) If you think it would enhance the article, you could include more information about Isis and/or about the town of Pompeii. Nice job and I hope you find some pictures you're allowed to use! Sydney

I think you have great detail and the article is well written. You might consider adding subheadings to focus the reader's attention and add to the article's structure. Also, adding internal links to other Wikipedia sites from your site will help your reader quickly look up additional information about the topic. Additionally, I think pictures or links to pictures will help for visualization. I agree with Jessica, I would like to know a little bit about the importance of Isis (as a deity), but I'm sure today's lecture provided plenty of information that you can use. Overall, I think you did a great job gathering informatino/detal and the article is very good. --P. Pacult

This article is very informative. I agree that the article could be broken up. Also, in response to the picture problem, if you cannot find usable images, you could just put a link to a page where people could go to see pictures. For the sake of substantiation you should probably put footnotes in the text so that readers can tell which source specifically you got your information from (in each case). I believe there is a wikipedia site that tells you how to do this, even though it is slightly cumbersome. Overall, very nice article, well done.
