Magazine section

Hi Trav0001, thanks for adding the section. I have a couple of suggestions below, you are welcome to reply here if you have any questions.

Firstly the section reads like a summary of a PhD thesis, rather than a paragraph about a magazine. Wikipedia:Make technical articles understandable explains that content should be written "for the widest possible general audience" and should have a "just-the-facts", rather than essay-like style. I would start with information like when the magazine opened and closed, who was the first editor and well known people who contributed. The article needs to be understandable without reading the reference, which isn't freely available, so if you use a phrase like "the many different professional identities that women in medicine held", it should be explained.
Secondly the coding of the references generated error messages: I corrected the page and pages parameters to show "pages=488–516". If you add an access date, you need to add the url accessed, e.g. https://muse.jhu.edu/article/672471. Also I used a named reference to replace two identical footnotes.

Student project 2021

I have removed three sections added by Trav0001 as part of a student project which do not fit into the article

The Magazine of the London School of Medicine for Women: the paragraph aapears to be a summary of a PhD thesis via an academic paper which I can't access and does not include encyclopedic information like when the magazine was founded.^[1]
Female Medical Society: the paragraph was based on a letter to the BMJ in 1911 about a separate organisation which has its own article, Female Medical Society.^[2]
Woman's Sphere in Medicine: the paragraph was based on a talk given in 1910 so the perspective is outdated.^[3] TSventon (talk) 12:17, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
