Aripipazole Lauroxil Peer Review[edit]

(a) Content

The original page for the drug Aripipazole Lauroxil is very limited in its information available to the public. There is one, very short paragraph consisting of only three sentences, so there was plenty to add when approaching this Wiki page. The student does a good job throughout the entire project of addressing this issue, but seems to have left the introductory section as is. I think that this is satisfactory, but there may have been potential to add more information to this introduction.

All information consisting in the sections is of strong value. I did not feel as if there was any unnecessary information here; however I once again think there could be more added, as there was no information on the page before. The sections on medical uses, drug interactions and overdosing were the best and most detailed sections.

I am not sure whether it is because I am looking at the document in draft form, however I do not believe there are any linked medical pages on this updated Wikipedia page.

There are strong examples used however, as the user describes proper uses for the drug, as well as how to adjust the dose based off specific inhibitors.

There is no duplicate content between the pages. The student uses all original information found on other websites, adding to the limited information that was originally provided on Wikipedia.

(b) Figures

There are no evident figures that I can see on this student’s Wikipedia page.

(c) References

The websites that were used are provided as hyperlinks located at the bottom of the page, however they are not linked to specific information or made as footnotes within the content of the text.

(d) Overall presentation

Overall this student does a good job in adding important drug information and textual explanation of the drug effects. The sections on Pharmacology, potential side effects, dosage methods and medical uses of Ariplprazole Lauroxil are well done. However, the page lacks tables, figures and references, as well as having an empty section labeled “Discontinuation” that is left with no information. This is a very good start and signifies significant improvement from the original Wikipedia page, however there still is some work to be done to make the page feel more complete.


Eplerenone Peer Review Response[edit]

Thank you for your detailed and descriptive review to our edits. It was extremely helpful how well you outlined the review and the expressive and simple way in which you phrased all of your suggestions. We plan on including more of a variety of linked pages within our Wikipedia edits, to improve to contextual background and evidence with which we explained our topic. We do believe that some of the terms you mentioned were already linked in earlier passages, but we will try to make them more conspicuous in the future edits. We created our own graph for the numerical differences in eplerenone and spironolactone, and therefore value your input on how to make it more easily accessible and readable. It is based on evidence from a study on how the drugs compare in their effectiveness in fighting heart failure and hypertension, so we will make that study more obvious and plan to detail some more of the evidence from that study. Our references page is lengthy and could therefore be minimized slightly, upon your suggestion. We found it more important to be thorough with our citations, taking a "safe rather than sorry" approach. We intend to investigate and add a sentence of two as to why eplerenone is more expensive than spironolactone. Lastly, we really appreciated your input on our phrasing, as it is important to us that we sound professional. Thank you for your excellent feedback!
