User:Adam (Wiki Ed)/Dashboard

A bit of a scratch pad showing articles we're paying attention to in the MEDRS area. Editors from WEF, namely Sage (Wiki Ed), Adam (Wiki Ed) and Ian (Wiki Ed) are noted where they've worked or commented on the article. Please feel free to add notes or remove articles (if it appears they never had major problems to begin with). Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 23:54, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Also please add articles if you feel they need some attention and we'll mark them as done as we've reviewed edits.

Article	Initial comments	Editors	Current problems
Observational learning	Some problems	IR, AH
Mary Ainsworth	Plagiarism and poorly written content	sage, AH	mostly reverted
Fine motor skill	Some problems with poor content.	IR
Learning disability	Article had a number of problems, worked through to fix those created throughout the term	Sage
Egocentrism	Checks made.	IR
Zone of proximal development	Looks good. Some wooly content, but improved since term start	AH	Too detailed
Midlife crisis	Working on it - lots of problems; fixed	IR	May need cleanup
Critical period	Looks ok. Lot of work only from students for 2 months. Largely improved over term	AH	May need trimming
Andropause	Removed a lot of long quotes and poorly formatted references (article was bad before as well)	AH
Self-awareness	Close paraphrase at the very least; copied text removed	AH	May need review
Motivation	Lots of tone issues. working now. some resolved	AH	Needs trimming
Substance abuse prevention	Lots of content...looking. Removed a bunch. I don't think it was plagiarized, just kinda bad	AH
Eating disorder	Edits from DocJames. Heavy citations everywhere, but some content is trivial	DocJames,	Some problems
Neurotransmitter	Looks worse in many places but the older version was quite bad as well.	AH	Some problems, but lots of community edits
Piaget's theory of cognitive development	Looks like an overall improvement Lots of content added but seems largely ok	AH
Selective exposure theory	Sage has gone over the changes between the beginning of term and now, and found no major issues. Much of the sourcing is to individual studies, which are arguably primary sources. But this topic is non-medical pyschology, and while the sourcing could no doubt be improved considerably, I don't think it's a big problem for this article. (I'm amused by the use of images, which one of the students added in a kind of cheeky way in the last couple of days. Those will probably not survive, but for my part, I like them, so I'm not going to remove them.)	Sage	No major, but see note
Parenting styles	notes from Sage: I removed a bunch more of the students' work, most of which was just bad writing / inadequate summary of sources. I'd say it's in slightly better shape than before the semester now, so I'm calling it okay.	AH, Sage
Parallel play	Can't get to source material, looks ok	ACH	May need to be more general
Separation anxiety disorder	notes from Sage: after Adam's cleanup (and this has seen a fair amount of attention from other editors throughout the term) I don't see anything too egregious. There's some use of inline linking (to a YouTube video demonstrating Strange situation) that isn't quite kosher, but it's useful, so it amounts to a style issue to figure out how to incorporate it.	Sage, AH	Look for ELs inline, (many removed)
Gender	largely good. CN tags replaced with sources, some poor sources used. not a lot of bulk content
Harry Harlow	Students have been working on it intermittently, along with other editors, since September. In the overall diff from then to now, it looks like solid improvement.	AH
Howard Gardner	Pretty solid work from the students; good sources, decent writing, and good info. I made some minor copyedits.	Sage
Compulsive hoarding	A bit of plagiarism, a fair amount of inappropriate sources, and some refs with bare urls to Hunter proxies. I remove most of the student content.	Sage
Dioscorea alata	One student editor added a bit of trivia, properly cited, not medical. No problem here.
Bullying	Some okay edits, plus one recent edit that cites a webpage that itself cites the Wikipedia article. I removed that.	Sage
Ellenabad	Spelling correction
Fuyang_High_School	Looks like an accidental edit, long since reverted.
Gloucester,_Massachusetts	Added a notable resident
Gross_motor_skill	One edit, fleshing out a bit of content already there. No obvious problem.
Gulumaal:_The_Escape	constructive minor edit, via GettingStarted
Regina_Pacini	constructive minor edit, via GettingStarted
Robert_Sternberg	constructive minor edit
Sebastian_Bach	constructive edit, likely unrelated to course
