    Hi Hubbers,

    I'd like some help with passing the Quality Assessment Process. Will you please give feedback on my article? What can I do to improve? Thanks!
    Here is my article: My First Thanksgiving Day in the United States and my Impressions of the US as a Graduate Student in 1960

    Hi. I think your article has some important things to say, but I noticed some problems. For example, the first photo is not a good one to use. I know it can be difficult to find good copies of old family photos when only a limited number are available. The first photo is very small, though, and when I enlarged it to see it better I discovered that it was blurred.

    The Amazon capsule seems completely out of place and needs to go. You haven't discussed the dish towels in your article and they don't fit your theme.

    You should also check that the red links go where you want them to. I clicked each one of them and was taken to my HubPages feed. Perhaps this is a temporary glitch, but you should check the links to make sure that they work on your device.

    I don't know if your article got featured back again in the meantime. But, here are some suggestions.

    The title of the article may be too long. It counts 85 letters + the spaces are extra.

    The title for the first photo. You can remove the words "The Katague Clan on" as it makes no sense. It is already in the caption below.

    Remove all those links with red letters in the article. They are irrelevant to the subject. Simply keep the words in normal type.

    Why do you mention your name in those titles? No title is required for photos when it does not highlight any new thing. Keep only the captions in the images. And, mention the author with his classmates. No name should be mentioned in it of yourself.

    That title for the 2016 thanksgiving image is okay. But, the photo is very small. Replace a larger and wider photo in place of it.

    Remove that video. It does not relate to your article. It will be a spam. And all those links in your article from top to bottom in red letters are also spam links.
