Ways to improve Sociopolitical issues of anatomy in America in the 19th century edit

Hi, I'm Mabalu. KaylaMa, thanks for creating Sociopolitical issues of anatomy in America in the 19th century!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Excellent first article, please do consider adding more references to support the information within, as there are some completely unreferenced sections and a number of statements that should be cited. Also please do add more in-line wikilinks to other pages to incorporate into the encyclopaedia, and would be good to link this article from other pages if possible, as it is currently really only linked to from the main article on history of anatomy in the 19th century.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Hi Mabalu! Thanks for your feedback, it has been very helpful! I have added more references and wikilinks to my article. Please do feel free to tell me if there are more areas to improve!

Comments on Sociopolitical issues of anatomy in America in the 19th century edit

First of all, I think you did a great job KaylaMa. I was especially drawn to the "Anatomy Museums" section. I have only one suggestion. I would like to have what you said in the second paragraph, "Initially set up to teach people the natural and moral sciences of the human body, anatomy museums gradually declined in status with the progress of medical science and education," expanded on to get a more comprehensive sense in what medical/educational changes led to this decline. Again, great job. I enjoyed reading it! (Diegoluytoto (talk) 02:29, 21 March 2017 (UTC))Reply

Thanks Diegoluytoto for your comments! I have added more elaboration on the changes in medical and scientific education, do let me know what you think! KaylaMa (talk) 05:24, 26 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

DYK nomination of Sociopolitical issues of anatomy in America in the 19th century edit

  Hello! Your submission of Sociopolitical issues of anatomy in America in the 19th century at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! BlueMoonset (talk) 00:20, 26 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

KaylaMa, there are still problems with your nomination: that the hook has not been properly formatted with a bold link to your article is a major sticking point. There are people in your class you can consult, and Wikipedians specifically available to help you and your classmates (see the Welcome above on this page). You really need to take the time to address this soon if you wish to continue pursuing this nomination. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:31, 2 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
BlueMoonset, I have looked at other hooks and edited my nomination. How can I further improve it? Thanks! KaylaMa (talk) 02:47, 2 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for April 14 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Laurence H. Snyder, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Trait and Paternity. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
