editDefinitely the "Afro-futurism" section needs to be eliminated and replaced by the lead. The lead will describe all the plots in an accordingly manner. First we will begin to introduce the main characters such as Doro and Anyanwu, we also will discuss in what scenario these two met. How did they end up together throughout the story along with how many places they've traveled to and the purpose of them joining forces. Once we have discovered that Doro recruits Anyanwu to breed more powerful humans in the colonies he has attempted to make his we can also give the readers knowledge of what power each withholds.

editIn this article, there needs to be more information on other characters, the plot needs expansion and to be called "Plot" instead of "Summary", and the section on Afrofuturism and Technology needs to be deleted or changed and moved to the themes. The Lead needs to be a summary of the whole article, not just where in the series the book came about. Also, the themes are from original research, which is against the guidelines, and it needs relevant secondary sources. The reception section needs more criticism. There needs to be a background section. The genre and/or style needs a section. The references should not have different editions of Wild Seed. Altogether, the article needs to be put in order. --Cahdee (talk) 18:44, 14 October 2015 (UTC) --Helectronic (talk) 18:44, 14 October 2015 (UTC)--Gonotontroo (talk) 18:46, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

editDefinitely, the "Afrofuturism" section need to be eliminated and replaced by the lead. The lead will describe all the plots in an accordingly manner. Firs we will begin to intrude the main characters such as Doro and Anyanwu, we also discuss in what scenario there two met. How did they end up together throughout the story along with how many places they've traveled to and the purpose of them joining forces. Once we have discovered that Doro recruits Anyanwu to breed more powerful humans in the colonies he has attempted to make his we can also give the readers knowledge of what power each withholds. --BelieveYouCan (talk) 18:45, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
Group 3 @ LAGCC
editONE idea for improving WikiProject article on "Wild Seed": Writing style category - third person narrative, convincing action, easy-to-follow storyline, non-technical language, chronological order. --JabbiesHelp (talk) 18:46, 14 October 2015 (UTC) --Jlefish (talk) 18:54, 14 October 2015 (UTC)--Senor luigi15 (talk) 19:00, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
Group 6 at LaGuardia Community College
editWhile we were in class We read the article and happened to notice that there were many things that need to be changed like:
- It should have a plot heading instead of summary which should leave out details of the end.
- addition of characters
- take out technology section
- Many of the themes are original research. The article needs more quotes from third party sources.
- needs relevant secondary sources
- reception section needs more criticism maybe sales numbers
- background-there is no information as to why Butler wrote the novel

Group One from LAGCC
editAfter reading this Wikipedia article my group and i found it too be an injustice to an objective view of the book. The references wasn't in order, when doing a citing page you must always start with the authors last name. There is a lot of original research that is not approved by wiki standards. There is also a lot of subjective ideas.There were a lot of information that was not relevant. We suggest adding more to the lead by summarizing and to the reception. Put more reviews.
