Should we change Eskimo to Inuit?
I like it better this way. Otherwise the one picture in the center disrupted the flow of things.
I moved the pictures around. Does it look any better? If not, we can move them back.
I renamed the file Shoshone and that seemed to work
I can't figure out what is wrong with the Shoshone Tenure image. It's a .jpeg and pops up when I "insert image from file" so it's downloaded to the page. It just won't appear on the main page…any ideas?
We need to cite where the images came from. The ones from books appear to be ok but the fast food picture needs a reference.
Is there anything else we want to add to our page? I think it looks good.
I fixed the citation error.
I think the Intro looks great right now, I edited a little bit-just some wording. The organization looks good. I think it flows pretty well into the following sections.
Hey, not sure who's done the paragraph on the Begler section of the intro, but the quotes must be cited (ie. Begler YEAR:PG) … the footnote at the end doesn't cover the quotes. Thanks!
I added that the Australian Aborigines are examples of semi-egalitarianism and that the Mbuti are examples of pure-egalitarianism. These terms are discussed prior to the examples and with this added description should no longer be confusing. Also, I edited the Australian Aborigine section, though it may need some more revision. I believe that the link between egalitarianism and hierarchies is clear and I am uncertain how to make it more understandable. All of the information from this section is from the Elsie B. Begler article and is cited with a footnote.
I tried to make the introduction flow a little better, but I am not for certain if I succeeded. Also, I edited the Begler section so that it sounds less like an article review.
Cool. My research article focuses on egalitarianism between gender so maybe we can collaborate. let me know
I'm liking how the entry is looking so far. Tonight or tomorrow morning I plan on adding a brief section on the importance of sharing in maintaining egalitarianism and also something about gender equality i think.
I added some pictures and edited the introduction a bit. The only part i am having problems with is the Semi/Pure Egalitarian section. Does someone have an article about this or was this from another source. I dont think that the link between egalitarianism and hierarchies is explained well enough and then the lead in into the Australian aborigines and Mbuti people is confusing. If this is from an article the theory needs to be explained a bit better and even the section on Australian aborigines should be edited a bit. I tried to edit it and move some information around but I don't know the important parts if this is from an article. Can the person who wrote that part fix it up a bit or if this isnt from an article let me know and ill fix it up. Thanks!
the table of immediate and delayed return, is it to be read across or to be read as bullet points, because i have example of the societies but im not sure if i need to put them according to the rows.
I think instead of just listing societies under variation we need to explain how they are variations.
I think I like it in the intro section. We just need to make sure that the intro all flows together (the semi/pure paragraphwith the intro that I wrote using Kelly and the Marvin Harris article I found). The only thing I'm not sure about is the writing down and referring specifically to the article on semi-egal/pure-egal. Perhaps we should just use the information from that article and refer the reader to the author/article/critical review. (Does that make sense?)
I went ahead and added the article discussion to the intro section. Let me know what you guys think.
it works for me
