This looks like it is going to be a great article! I appreciate that you are including information on programs of study and conferences etc., to enhance the idea of the educational aspect of the article. With that information, as well as the more broad information on conservation, I think this page will be a good starting resource to help viewers learn more about the main aspects of conserving totem poles, and where to find further information. I am curious to see what some of your sources will be, as I don't know much about the topic myself. Would UNESCO or some other major heritage network have some good information on the conservation of these objects? I wonder if you will have information about the conservation of these objects indoors versus outdoors, or about them remaining in their original location versus moving them to a safer location, and the impact of these decisions, either culturally or on the physical object itself? Or is there even much information about these ideas to pull from? It's interesting looking at an outline, and understanding the basics of what will be included, but the content still being such a mystery. I can't wait to see what you end up with.

What an interesting topic! As someone who knows very little about the Conservation and Care of Totem Poles, your article should be very useful to me and other readers who are similarly uninformed. Based on the information that you have included in your outline, readers should have a good grasp on pertinent aspects of totem pole conservation and care by the time they are finished reading your article. I appreciate that your article will include information about degree and training programs so that readers who are looking for more information or even education can easily find these programs and take advantage. Just a few suggestions, it may be helpful to include information about the history of totem poles, which cultures they are associated with, and why they are significant so that readers will understand why museums go through the trouble of conserving these objects. Another way to accomplish this could be by referring readers to the Totem pole Wikipedia page by providing a link to it within your article. I am sure that by now you have realized that you should have no trouble finding relevant information to assist you in writing this article, as Yahoo and Google searches for Totem Pole Conservation yield a surprising number of useful resources. Great work, I can't wait to read your article! Ehorbie (talk) 22:07, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
I think your basic outline covers the right topics. I changed the title to match the convention of other articles. Like this one: Conservation and restoration of silver objects.--RichardMcCoy (talk) 00:43, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
