Talk:Social Media Short-Video Sharing

I think your perspective on this topic is really eye-opening! I'm quite interested in this emerging topic, and I felt you did an excellent job of explaining it.

Word Length: Overall, you are well short of the word requirement, but I notice you have added a number of parts that you have yet to write in, so I'm confident you will meet the word count on your final copy. I believe one way you may meet this word count is to emphasize how each platform from the past has aided in the development of new ones. This might take the shape of well publicized scientific research, shifts in human attitudes toward media sharing, or simply money combined with technological advancements. I hope you can go into detail in the 'Impact on Influencers' part about the many ways that distinct platforms/concepts have affected the digital era and how they are being used to produce the platforms you mentioned in 'Notable History.' I'd also like to see counter-arguments so that we can see all sides of these sophisticated technology.

Structure: The opening paragraph of the article provides a decent understanding to the readers about what the text will discuss. It summarizes the content of the article nicely. The table of contents available allows for an ease of navigation, which will come in handy once the word count is met since the article will no longer be able to fit in one screen.

With your background, followed by the introduction of current and previous platforms, and then ethical considerations, I believe you're on the right course. However, I would recommend include a more comprehensive or lengthy history piece. Perhaps include some of the technology that catapulted social media platforms to prominence and explain how they grew to be the powerhouses that they are now. The history portion now consists of three brief lines about three major social media sites, and I believed it should be built out more with more data. I hope you could change this part to have a more fluid chronological flow so that you grasp the history and why this technology is significant.

While you do have a references section within your article, there are none there at the moment. I can easily see you adding references from numerous scholarly articles and blogs, it is just a matter of actually adding them.

Clarity: I think the clarity of the article is not fully there yet. I think most of this is due to the need for more content to meet the word count, but I am also a bit confused as to the direction of the article. I see that the subheadings for Ethical Concerns is data security and exposure to a lower demographic. However, I am unsure if you can utilize just these 2 concerns as the major part of your 3000 word count. Furthermore, you can potentially add issues with each social media’s problems with ethics under the notable history section as it will give readers a better understanding of why you are choosing those specific platforms (unless, of course, they are chosen arbitrarily). I would also recommend making the Impact on Influencers section longer since it is quite short at the moment.

Objective Reporting: The article does seem to be neutral when discussing ethical issues and controversies. Without any comments laced with personal opinions when writing about the controversies, a reader can come out with an objective perspective on the issues of ethics surrounding short-form video sharing platforms. As this article hasn’t been completed yet, I would encourage the author to continue to remain objectives when expounding on not just the Ethical Concerns section, but even the History section.
