Need to get this page straightened out

Karlee - somehow you have given yourself the username, karlee.beavens/sandbox. This is not really your sandbox, it is your User talk page. I have asked one of the Wiki Ed editors to straighten this out. In the meantime, I will answer your group's questions here. J.R. Council (talk) 06:00, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

1. There wasn’t much in the talk page about the paper. I think this Wikipedia could use a picture of him, and lots more information. Such as what his greatest accomplishments were. 2. “ Kurt Goldstein” ling.fju.edu.tw. retrieved 27 February 2015 “Kurt Goldstein and Holism” gestaltpsychotherapie.de retrieved 26 february 2015

3. Dr. Council can we add pictures? Can we talk about his major accomplishments? Markelle.axtman (talk) 17:05, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes to both. I have posted instructions on how to add pictures in Blackboard/Wikipedia resources. Pictures have to be in the public domain. Try looking in Wikimedia Commons for starters. Yes - you should definitely discuss his major accomplishments, especially contributions to psychology. J.R. Council (talk) 06:11, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

One thing this article needs is pictures or graphics.

2 sources I found that aren't in this article are:

Ludwig, David. Language and human nature: Kurt Goldstein's neurolinguistic foundation of a holistic philosophy. Journal of the History of Behavioral Science. Vol 48(1), 2012, pp. 40-54.

Eling, Paul. Neurognostics Answer. Journal of the History of the Neurosciences. Vol 21(1), 2012, pp. 119-125.

2 questions/ comments I have for the professor are:

How many sections do you think we should try to have in this article? Can the biography section be split up into smaller sections, like childhood, years, etc.?

Splitting an article into sections makes it a lot easier to follow, and automatically generates a table of contents. It's up to you how many sections to include - go with what makes the most sense. You can put subsections in the biography section. See the material on editing I've made available. J.R. Council (talk) 06:11, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Problem or issue with article: There is no background information on Goldstein or his family. The little information that is there should be elaborated

Two references:

Pickren, W. E. (2003). Kurt Goldstein: Clinician and philosopher of human nature. In G. A. Kimble, M. Wertheimer, G. A. Kimble, M. Wertheimer (Eds.), Portraits of pioneers in psychology, Vol. V (pp. 127-140). Washington, DC, US; Mahwah, NJ, US: American Psychological Association

Goldstein, G. (1990). Contributions of Kurt Goldstein to neuropsychology. Clinical Neuropsychologist, 4(1), 3-17. doi: 10.1080/13854049008401492

Two Questions:

1. What would be an example of “too much” information about a person? Page lengthwise?

You don't want to make this like an essay or term paper. It should be "encyclopedic." See the material I've made available to the class. Make it long enough to get the important information across.

2. Do you have any suggestions on what to mention that would be important, from what you know about him?

The material in the textbook would be good for starters. Also, the article by Pickren in Portraits of pioneers would have the right information. J.R. Council (talk) 06:11, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
