Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art article - feedback

Hi @ArinLeighB, I took a look at your edits to the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art article and noticed you'v expanded it greatly. I think your edits could be improved if you add inline citations to reliable sources to support the edits. Currently you have several inline citations to the museum website, but that isn't an independent source bc it's the museum. I recommend finding news articles, or potential coverage in museum studies academic journals that perhaps have covered the collections of this museum to support your text. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Brianda (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:34, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
