Talk:Project Financing Initiative

Revision as of 20:48, 22 September 2015

Kristine: Interesting subject, as the finance can be a major showstopper for projects. I am not exactly certain if you are going to describe a specific tool in your article? Have you considered how you will relate this subject to project management? (You don't need to answer me on these questions, just make certain you consider it yourself) Furthermore I can recommend to look at the main page when figuring out how to structure your article.

• The beginning sections consists of a lot of short sentences – they are fine, but maybe you can combine one or two of them? It’s just a suggestion ☺

• The financial management structure-figure is good, but not cropped very well. Maybe you should crop the “empty” areas away from the picture, so the figure becomes clearer? ☺ Maybe also make the picture a bit bigger? It’s a good figure! ;)

• Maybe add an explanation/introduction to the table? It brings forward some interesting points, which could be explained in depth. ☺

• The language in this article is very impressive. It’s easy to read and easy to understand, yet you keep the level high and avoid “dumbing it down”. There are a few “mistakes” here and there, but they are so minor that it hardly matters.

• Remember to start with capital letters in BOOT/BOT and BOO.

• The key words (although good to have) could maybe be moved to the beginning of the article? It seems a bit strange to almost be in the middle of the article, and suddenly key words appear ☺ Just a suggestion!

• In the “When is PF appropriate?”-section, you start a sentence with “have little uncertainty”. The following text seems to be lacking some punctuation!

• Just going to remind you of the [link wiki] tag in the implement-section, in the Controlling the risks-section and in the benefits-section! ;)

• Once in a while, sentences are either cut off or starts out of the blue. An example: “hen the ratio of debt to equity” in the “Planning Project Finance”-section. The following sentence ends without a punctuation and the sentence overall seems confusing as well.

• First few lines in “Arranging the financial package”-section are a bit strange. Maybe they should’ve been bullet points?

• The benefits-section is really good; I suggest maybe making a bullet list with keywords and explanations to the different benefits. Like a summery from before, but also more “straight forward”, making it easier to see just how many benefits there are. Just a suggestion! ☺

• Remember to fix the ref-link in the limitations-section!

Overall I think this was a really well-written and interesting article. I felt like I really learned something new. Other than a couple of strange sentences here and there, I really can’t put my finger on anything specific. Great job! ☺

Feedback from s150821

• The topic of the article is in line with Project Management themes;
• The article structure well follows the “method” structure requested by the assignment and provide a clear explanation of how article develops.
• Section where are explained various format of PFI is a bit hard to understand also because of argument complexity. Maybe it would be better to explain more in detail what are the differences between various format of PFI.
• The table at the beginning of the article is a really good idea but maybe with an introduction could be better;
• References are well done, enough in quantity and quality ( they all refer to reliable sources);
• Basically article is well written except some mistake about capital letters ; to make clearer the understanding of the article it would be better to write in bold some important concepts.
