Hello, GinnyMae, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Feedback request

I got your message and took a look at your sandbox. It looks really good, but you should link terms that the average reader wouldn't be familiar with. That way they can click through and learn more about the topic.
(When replying to this message, please include {{ping|Ian (Wiki Ed)}} in your response, to ensure that I see your reply.)

Thank you for the feedback Ian! @Ian (Wiki Ed): I will be sure to incorporate links to other articles as I continue editing! GinnyMae (talk) 18:30, 22 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Peer Review

Hi Ginny, I looked at your sandbox, it looks really great! I liked how you linked to a lot of different pages in your causes section. I think that you should do that for epidemiology section as well e.g. dyspnea. I think that the information that your provided was really well referenced and thorough! It also reads like one would expect a wikipedia article to read (sounds encyclopedic) so that's good. I would remove the list of references that you have under the title "bibliography" header and just use the reference list generated by wikipedia, it just feels a little redundant to have both. Other than that, I like the way that you've structured your sections and your use of headers. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the feedback @Cleotheslp:! Those are excellent suggestions which I will definitely incorporate as I continue to work on the draft and move it into mainspace! GinnyMae (talk) 03:27, 30 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
