Feedback
[edit]Hi Asbank01, I see your contributions to the article Sandra Schmid. I have some thoughts about your work and the article in general.
- Using past tense and the phrase "latter part" in the lead (
..who spent the latter part of her academic career...
makes it sound as if she is retired or perhaps even deceased. That does not appear to be the case, so perhaps this could be rephrased - We generally avoid the use of academic titles like "Dr." (
Dr. James E. Rothman
) - Always define initialisms/acronyms at first use (TSRI)
- Just part of the Wikipedia style guide, but citations directly follow punctuation, including commas, periods, and semicolons (Sentence.[1] not Sentence[1]. or Sentence. [1]) I see a couple instances to fix—you can just drag and drop the references to move them where they need to go.
- We generally don't put "external links" in the body of the article. You have an external link at National Academy of Sciences (NAS). You can tell it's an external link because it has the little square with an arrow icon after it. You can use an internal link instead (link to Wikipedia's article about the NAS instead of the NAS website)
Otherwise this is looking really good! Nicely done! Elysia (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:56, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
