Review Alejandro I agree with Daniel that the idea is very interesting. I will suggest to focus the article on the uniqueness of this franchisee and the history behind it, as it what differentiates this franchise from others and your article from the already existing article. Maybe consider changing the name to something for eye catching and specific? Also to add, I will try and keep the contents tab under the first introductory paragraph rather than above it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alxthewriter (talk • contribs) 18:25, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Review Daniel Rosenman I think the idea of writing about a Japanese book stores chain is unique and interesting. Please keep in mind that there is another article named Village Vanguard, regarding the jazz club in New York. I think adding more sources and more details regarding the significance of Village Vanguard chain would be great, since many people might not understand the significance of this chain to Japan and Wikipedia might, therefore ,not identify it as a notable article.

Comment from Kaitlyn about First Draft[edit]

1. Leading Section seriously needed.
2. In terms of the organization, I suggest you use:
   1). Take the first part up to the intro
   2). Change the Section name to: History- Timeline - Listing
   3). Try to make that timeline into a list
3. It will be fun if you add more images, I really suggest you call into the store and ask to borrow some images, I'm sure they'll be love to help out and also letting them know that you are kind of promoting their businesses.
4. The timeline definitely needs more citations, I suggest you link it multiple times even if it is coming from the same source or just link the source up at the section title.
5. Fill up the sub-section or just mention the notable aspect of the stores instead of talking about all of them.
6. You should have a mini intro page like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakespeare_and_Company_(bookstore)

Good JOb! I really think it'll be so cool to let that store knows that you are making a wiki page for them. Maybe you'll get coupon code for life:D--Kaitlyntian (talk) 12:37, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
