Hi Hubbers,
I'd like some help with passing the Quality Assessment Process. Will you please give feedback on my article Weird Things for Weirdos. I recenty re-vamped it, but what more can I do to improve? Thanks!
Several of your photos are out of focus, and your pic of a poster is wrongly sourced.
Thanks for your time, Chasmac. I have done a lot of changes, including removing the not-so-good photos and adding better ones. I have also lengthened the commentary, but am not sure about fixing the poster link, as Allposters do sell this poster.
Honestly I struggle to get the point of the hub, but I would suggest not posting things that are normal for another culture as "weird". For example the video about how women in other cultures dress or do body modifications.
Thanks, I never thought of it from that perspective - just thought of what seemed weird to me. I have actually lived in Africa, where some of these practices are normal to them, but not ones I or my compatriots would have considered emulating. On the other hand, my close descendants have had nose rings and tongue studs, to name but a few idiosyncracies, and I think they are weird too!
I agree with psycheskinner: I fail to see the point of this hub. If you were to revise it so that it helped the reader (such as how to set up a weird collection) it might be of use.
I think the title and direction of the hub are all wrong. Artifacts in the British Museum are important parts of history (very ancient history) so that's not weird in my eyes. Same goes for Wallace and Gromit in terms of TV/film production. I do also think that when you put such a large title for the photo capsule it feels like a totally new topic and I get confused by that.
I think the main issue is that it doesn't really have that much direction, just sort of seems like random things cobbled together...
The first thing I noticed are the spelling errors. Artifacts, not artefacts. Wallace and Gromit, not Grommit. HTH!
Artefact is the English spelling, and Artifact is the American spelling. So I have not spelt it wrongly - my fault lies in not living in America. There are many links concerning the spelling of this particular word - here's one from Grammarist: http://grammarist.com/spelling/artefact-artifact/
Sometimes it is useful to spell something incorrectly, for Search Engine Optimization purposes, because lot's of people type in the wrong spelling when doing a search. For instance there are 14 search pages on Google for Wallis and Grommit, and 17 for Wallis and Grommit. This means that one is more likely to feature on the first or second page of Grommit. In fact, you might have noticed that I have used both spellings in my article. I learned this little trick from an article about how to buy things cheaply on Ebay - fewer people search/find the items which are wrongly spelled, and therefore buyers are more likely to get them cheaper in an auction, as there are fewer competitors (but I just wish I could remember to do that).
Now, don't laugh, I thought HTH meant that you were hissing at me like a cat. But before commenting along the lines of "don't have a hissy fit", I thought I'd look it up on our wonderful internet, and discovered a new acronym - HTH = Hope This Helps.
This is fun, isn't it? - I do love our forums!
Totally agree with those who fail to see the point of this offering. I don't want to be rude, but I'm not very gripped by the fact that you once owned a Wallace and Grommit tchotchke. At this point I bailed out.
I agree with Polly C. I think you have way to many titles and not enough text under the title.
