Forest

Hey Benny. It's kind of tricky to talk grades without a more complete article, but you've made a good start of organizing here. In your finished article, you'll want to mention why this topic is notable, and include reliable secondary sources to support your statements. I would probably take out the vision statement at the beginning. "Points of interest" is a bit vague, you'll want to focus that a bit. I'm also unsure why you would need a separate section for "Maps" - do you maybe mean something like "Geography"? Nikkimaria (talk) 17:21, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

Clemson Experimental Forest

You've made a good start to the article. First of all, I would suggest added some additional sections to the article as you already have with the geography section. For an article on an experimental forest these are some of the topics I would expect to see:

• History
• Geography/geology - where is it located, soils, topography, etc
• Ecology - animals, plants, forest types, aquatic ecosystems, etc
• Research - what sort of research has been conducted there, anything particularly notable?
• Recreation - if applicable, are the any opportunities for public recreation
• Reference - you already have this, just make its own section

To improve the article in other ways:

• Make sure to read the pages listed under Welcome! above
• Add links within the article to specific subjects of interest with double brackets
• It is good to see that you are using reference templates
• Use Template:Convert for numbers such as tree heights and acreages
• Add links to this article from other relevant ones
• Expand the lead section as you expand the article
