it better! The information regarding the actual language is very hard to find, so we'll try our best! Keleka11 - Thank you! We didn't even think to hyperlink them! We were too focused on trying to get our word count, but we'll do it by the time it's due! Clmn3 - Oh shoot thank you for catching that! We'll definitely fix those number discrepancies!

already in the info table at the top, so is not needed in the speakers section. The
Tokelauan Alphabet and Orthography sections state very similar things, so i suggest combining them. I suggest using indents and italics for the examples in the Complements/Permutations section, right now it is difficult to parse.

Something you could do to improve your page would be to hyperlink all locations and languages, not just the introduction. It will help clear up reader's confusion about location of those three different atolls and languages spoken on them. Do they all speak
Tokelauan or does language differ slightly
424:
As was previously mentioned, the article feels light on the linguistic information. There some grammatical errors and some sentences feel really long. While it's great that you have a lot about the written aspect of
Tokelauan, you could also discuss more about the phonology of the language (if there

This is a good draft. A few things that came to mind after reading the article were as follows. First I saw that the information from some sections was lacking sources: Compliments, Morphology< and the latter part of the
Orthography section. The second thing I was wondering is if the permutations
485:
The first paragraph states 4,260 speakers, but the next paragraph rounds it up to 5000 speakers. Then the number of speakers in the atolls of
Tokelau change in the Speakers section. I would suggest moving some of the information in the second paragraph to the speakers section. Also, the ISO code is

Very good introduction and background. Consider combining the
Speakers, Background, and Affinities with other languages sections. Tokelauan Alphabet and Orthography sections should also be combined since they contain overlapping information. The article is pretty brief, go more depth about grammar,

Although background and history is helpful information to understand the language better I would try to focus and elaborate more on the actual linguistic stance of the language. Obviously culture is important but for the purposes of this assignment maybe try to give more details about sentence

An IP editor (2601:410:200:2E60:318E:B7A6:DA87:75AF) added the text "<English does not have long vowels, it has different vowels that
English speakers call "long vowels." Actual long vowels sound the same but are held longer. Someone please specify which one Tokelauan has./:

Tokelauan (or know anyone who has one).

The article would really benefit from more visual aids such as a picture containing the Tokelauan Alphabet or a picture of what a macron (the examples in Orthography are too small to see) is for example.

In the article, the form “k'aumai“ occurs at least twice, but in the introduction of the alphabet there is no indication of the use of an apostrophy(-like) sign. What does the second symbol in the form

You may want to consider bolding, increasing the font size, italicizing, or using a combination of them to better distinguish the letters within the Orthography as grammatical ones.
