I am currently working on updating this page with better citations and more up to date information. Rose Northeastern (talk) 18:26, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

-- Per the issues listed at the top of the site, and the lack of updated information for the page, I used new sources and updated all information to make it a more credible article. Please let me know where you think I can improve or add more content if necessary! Rose Northeastern (talk) 02:04, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Feedback[edit]

Hi Rose! I have reviewed your article and like it a lot. I made a few grammatical changes and moved a couple of words around for clarity purposes. A couple of other things are:

- Should you include (Organization) in the title?

- Take note that the page still has the "excessive sources..." box on the top of the page

- The first few sentences of the history section are repetitive to the intro

- Phrasing such as “silence and lack of awareness” might challenge NPOV

- Maybe add some more information about National programs, maybe including some examples of people who attended the events or photos of the events

Looks good! -MichelleBir. (talk) 21:19, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Rose!

I agree with everything that Michelle said above. I think that it is a great article and interesting. The only thing that I would add is pictures. For example, the Send Silence Packing program is a familiar visual. I saw that Wikimedia Commons has pictures related to the program, that might add to your article. Good job!

Hi Rose, Upon reviewing your article, I've provided some feedback and suggestions for additions below; I've also made grammatical changes throughout.

- in the Send Silence Packing section, are backpacks meant to be representative of 1,000 or 1,100 college students whose lives are lost to suicide every year? I believe you meant to have the same number in this sentence

- consider rephrasing some of your sentences to avoid repetition; an example is in the National Conference section

- can you expand the History section to provide more context about the organization's leadership? Why is the organization called Active Minds?

- you could include a chart of the speakers and their titles/certifications under the Active Minds Speakers section

- perhaps include the location of the National Conference and provide additional information here -- are there any awards given out?

I would also echo NortheasternFoley's comment that adding visuals will further enhance your article. Great job! JessWeiss (talk) 04:47, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
