Proposal

[edit]

My chosen article is History of the Incas. I think a big thing I want to work on for my article choice is citations. I want to work on making this more verifiable and add references to the content that was previously written. I also want to add more information and new sections. I would at least like to add some sort of religion section. I want to talk about the sun God and moon goddess and what they entail, how they are worshipped, and shrines that were built. Even if it is a small section, I think it is important to have in an article about an ancient civilization. I feel like the article doesn’t focus enough on information on daily life. Things like government and how kings were chosen, their architecture and how they used sharp lines and shapes to build buildings and fortifications. Things like this are important to who the Incas were but are not a part of the original article. Talking about their geography would be useful information along with adding a timeline of some sort as a quick overview of their civilization because this is such a broad topic. So, I plan to add sections on all these pieces of information. I know there are a lot of articles on Wikipedia about the Inca civilization that people can find more detailed information on these things but if they come to this article, they should have some broad information on key things to reference if needed.

Pachacuti reorganized the kingdom of Cusco into an empire, the Tahuantinsuyu, a federalist system which consisted of a central government with the Inca at its head and four provincial governments with strong leaders: Chinchasuyu (NW), Antisuyu (NE), Kuntisuyu (SW), and Qullasuyu (SE). Pachacuti is also thought to have built Machu Picchu, either as a family home or retreat. (add citation, edit sentence to stop before it gives the leaders names [8]
