Hi Caroline, your plans for edits look good. Regarding your question about the NYT article, I did not see that as plagiarism, but think a link to memory consolidation would be helpful. You don't have to necessarily re-write the sentence to link it to a wiki page. Perhaps consider further breaking up the discussion section into more specific categories to make reading the section a bit easier. --Ksoltesz (talk) 21:00, 19 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kristina, thank you so much for the peer review. This is very helpful! C.q20n.17 (talk) 02:23, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Caroline, Here is my review of your project: (really just some article suggestions and two source/reference change) It looks like you are lacking some good sources for information about various neurotransmitters or molecules involved in NREM, here are some hopefully interesting articles:

1. β-amyloid disrupts human NREM slow waves and related hippocampus-dependent memory consolidation.

2. Low acetylcholine during slow-wave sleep is critical for declarative memory consolidation/ which discusses how ACh levels are low in NREM and higher in REM and the implications on memory these low NREM ACh levels have.

3. The Role of Cytokines in Sleep Regulation connection between SWS and cytokines especially how IL1 and TNF enhance NREM sleep.

4.BIOCHEMICAL REGULATION OF NON-RAPID-EYE-MOVEMENT SLEEP this article discusses ALOT of neurotransmitters with many coming to no clear conclusion on their possible role on SWS due to conflicting research however many articles seem to agree on the connection between the immune system cytokines and its enhancement of NREM.

also source number 7, the New York Times article probably isn't a good source?, here is another source that talks more into that topic https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3621793/

and Source 19 might be a problem? since it a press release? not sure but maybe you could try finding the original publication of the article. http://www.brighamandwomens.org/about_bwh/publicaffairs/news/pressreleases/PressRelease.aspx?sub=0&PageID=942 Arich7 (talk) 22:50, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi April, thank you for the helpful list of scientific articles. I had difficulty searching and choosing articles in order to support the statements. I will definitely use these! C.q20n.17 (talk) 17:34, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
