Attachment in Children

Very thorough additions. DPeterson^talk 12:10, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Attachment measures and Attachment in children

The material you added to these is good information but it needs to be in a more encyclopaedic form. Could you put together a section that deals with the latest research on the SSP in a way that says what the main findings are rather than referring people to the papers? The papers can be referenced but most people don't have access to an academic data base. A view from a notable secondary source would be best. Fainites ^barley 16:26, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Heres a table that will give you links to all the main pages on editing, sources, referencing and so on.

I have absolutely no idea what the +/- signs mean - but I know a man who does! I'll get back to you. I'd be very surprised if it were any kind of value judgement though. Who would be making it? There's no "them", there's only "us". It may be a sign of whether your edit remains or has been removed? Fainites ^barley 20:53, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've worked it out! Its the number of characters added or removed by that particular edit on that page you are watching. For example if somebody added the words "attachment theory stinks" to the attachment in children page it would add (+26) which is the total number of letters and marks.

By the way - I'm looking for reviewers to review the reactive attachment disorder article which I have put in for Featured Article status. I appreciate you are not a very experienced editor, but Wiki is very short of active psychiatrists or psychologists so it may be that you have some views on the content. Your honest opinion would be appreciated. Its a tricky subject. The review page is here.[1] You might want to look at WP:Featured article criteria to see what the criteria are, and WP:FAC to see all the nominations.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Laurel Hill Tunnel has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: '\bfacebook\.com' (link(s): http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=10609962&ref=name#/pages/Donegal-PA/Laurel-Hill-Tunnel/46972250711?ref=ts) .

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks!
