Three Scholarly Books: 1.Correspondence of Governor Samuel Ward, May 1775-March 1776 2.Samuel Ward Statesman by Lambert M. Surhone, Mariam T. Tennoe, Susan F. Henssonow 3.The Life and Services of Governor Samuel Ward, of Rhode Island: A Member of the Continental Congress In 1774, 1775 and 1776 by John Ward

Wikipedia Article that I am editing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Ward_(American_statesman)

Outline: 1. I do not feel like it is necessary to add any new sections to this article. The article already talks about Ward's "Early Life" and his "Career". Therefore, the article is already explaining good information about his personal and professional life. 2. I personally believe that I should not have to remove any sections that are currently in the article. For example, the section about the Stamp Act is a very important section because it explains why and how Ward was a significant person during that time period. 3. In each section on the article, I do not feel like they need to be completely rewritten but I did come across many sentences throughout the article that need to be changed. Many of the sentences are not specific enough for the reader to be able to understand what is going on. Another thing that I saw in the article is the punctuation and a lot of run on sentences. 4. After reviewing the multiple books and articles about Samuel Ward, I started comparing them to the Wikipedia article. I concluded that the Wikipedia article had many of the same references from the books and articles that I reviewed. If I were to add more sources to the Wikipedia article then I feel like it would not be useful information for the reader. 5. Rearranging some of the sections in the article would be a good idea to do because it might give the reader more clarity. For example, the specific order that I think the sections should be in are Ancestry and Early Life, Family and Legacy, Political Life, Stamp Act, and Continental Congress. 6. There are appropriate external links in the article. For example, some people may not know what the "Continental Congress" stands for. Therefore, once you click on that link it gives you a full description about its definition. 7. There are appropriate images for this article. Since there are only two real images, it is plenty for people to get the basic idea of Samuel Ward because of the time period. Mzazver1 (talk) 22:44, 18 July 2016 (UTC)Mzazver1[reply]
