Talk:Toba people

message: The culture and history sections are very thorough and straightforward, tonally neutral but descriptive. The lead section is a little long, but it's also descriptive, and the paragraph structure keeps it manageable. I appreciate the focus on their current situation.

thread_title: Anth 3134 Peer Review of Cpsouthworth

message: I agree with the other reviewers that this page is very thorough, but I wonder if you can find some more information regarding the institutions of the Toba so as to create another section? Just a suggestion! Solid work, I appreciate the encyclopedic tone throughout. Brimo1014 (talk) 01:43, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Peer Review

message: In general, this article is both broad and deep in its coverage. Some suggested changes or places for improvement:
* References need to be clearly and more frequently cited throughout.
* “Toba is an initially pejorative denomination…" — This slightly jargon-y sentence should go later in the article, instead of cluttering the lead sentence.
* Peoples and languages that may not be capitalized in Spanish should be capitalized in English.
* There's a history of "physical type" descriptions of ethnic peoples being too confident and specific compared to the actual group It's essential to clearly state who has concledud what about their shared physical traits.
* There's some pretty serious Toba/Qom resistance to military conquest in 1840s Bolivia. See Erick Langer's article "The Eastern Andean Frontier (Bolivia and Argentina) and Latin American Frontiers: Comparative Contexts" (2002).
* An opening summary sentence under "Land protests" would be helpful.
* This seems both vague and yet POV: "The Qom culture, with respect to their customs and traditions, is very functional."
Also, the following source is an example of a text likely to have lots of encyclopedic information, particularly in its early chapters.
* Marcela Mendoza. Band mobility and leadership among the Western Toba hunter-gatherers of Gran Chaco in Argentina.

thread_title: Further comments

message: While reading through the Toba people article, I became concerned about the lack of citations. There are many facts and statements that require citations, such as the statement "According to the 2010 census there are 126,967 Toba in Argentina", that lack a reference or citation. This pattern continues throughout the rest of the article with only two citations being used throughout the entire article. While I think there is room for expansion and additional information considering the Toba people are still an active society whose history has not ended, it is importante to refine this article and either cite the information currently available or remove statements that cannot be legitimized and lack sources.
