Talk:The Gantt chart and the usage nowadays

Josef: Hello, I like your idea. See if the "chronology" idea makes sense - if the Gantt chart changed significantly over the years, then this may be interesting. Otherwise, you could for example also discuss how other project management methods related to Gantt charts (e.g. how it needs a WBS, relationship to network plans, critical path etc.)

Jacob: First of all, a very interesting article. It's following the structure, which is a good thing in my book, and the introduction gives us a clear overview of what it is we have to read. Nevertheless, I do have some comments:

• 1 reference only is too few- you need to find more references to back up what you are saying!
• I'd suggest a spellcheck - your article is understandable, but there are some spelling errors, mainly in the Limitations section, that makes understanding more difficult
• I would maybe suggest the term "History" instead of "Throwback", considering that this is a scientific article, and throwback seems more like slang to me
• The first example of a Gant chart presented here needs some text commenting it
• Your reference to PERT/CPN is fine, but I would add another reference at the bottom of your page and refer to this as well.
• I would probably list the benefits before the drawbacks and rename the section to something else than Limitations, since benefits aren't really a part of the limitations.
• One of the drawbacks mentioned is that gant charts cannot be printed out on normal paper anymore due to their size, and you say this is not a drawback anymore "because of technology". This seems to be a gross simplification, and I would certainly still call this a drawback, since most still prefers to have various diagrams and such printed out and to have them physically during meetings, rather than just see them on a screen.
• In drawbacks, at the end, you say that several drawbacks have been eliminated with time, or are not as significant in the past. Since this is a document aimed at the present, perhaps only list those that are still relevant today, and move the others to the a "past drawbacks"?

First of all great work and a good article about The Gantt Chart but there are some points you should consider about your article. You have covered all the requirements of Wiki article guide.

• I am missing an introduction about The Gantt Chart itself, I think you should consider moving the Throwback to the start of the article because you’re Throwback seems to be a short introduction.
• Missing a conclusion at the end of your article.
• Missing a short description of your bibliography.
• I think you should consider finding more than one reference.

You are almost there with you article, thanks for a good video guide to how to make a Gantt chart.

The article presents the GANTT chart in a very understable manner. But this article lacks structure in general. You should split paragraphs and add some levels of hierarchy and titles. And there is almost nothing on the usage nowadays, you should spend more time on that, and give more examples because it is really interesting! And maybe you could introduce alternatives that are used now. Content-related:

• Sometimes a few sentences are hard to understand, a simple proof reading should be enough!
• The example provided is really nice :)
• Re-write your introduction in a more wiki-style, and remove the double table of content
• Benefits is a subparagraph of limitations!

Formal-related:

• If you have time, you can try to link more towards this wiki rather than wikipedia (PERT for instance)
• You can also put some key words in bold to ease understanding of the text.

Good luck with your writing!
