Talk:Engel classification

Editor Info

I am an undergraduate psychology student at Nebraska Wesleyan University and will be working with my instructor Michele Petracca https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Psychology_CU and the APS Wikipedia Initiative to improve this article this semester. Any suggestions or input along the way would be greatly appreciated. MSederberg21 (talk) 04:55, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Outline

Since this current article just has the very basics of the Engel classifications, I plan to add some background information. This information would probably be included in a history section where I might mention the who, what, when, where, and how Engel came up with this classification system. Then I plan to add a section where I give more detailed information for each classification listed. For example, Class I is currently defined as "free of disabling seizures." I might try to find more information on what exactly that means, like what qualifies a seizure as "disabling." Finally, I might add a final section on the reception of the classification system, specifically in the medical community. This would include why healthcare professionals have both criticized and praised this classification system. As I mentioned earlier, any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Peer Review

All of your grammar and sentence structure is well done and the reader can easily flow through the article. The organization of the article is also done well, making it easy to flow through the article. I think you have really good information on the disadvantages of the classification system, but I might add a section about the advantages of the system as well. If you wanted, you could also expand more upon the history of the classification system and what systems were used before, or if there are any more prevalent ranking systems still used today. You could also expand more on Engel himself and his background, and why his classification system was chosen. Great work on your article so far! Shelbyknorr23 (talk) 03:01, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

Peer Review

I like that you have spread this information out over a few different sections as opposed to just focusing on one area of the topic. Is there any other history that went into this? That section is the only one that looks like it might be lacking information compared to the others. Other than that, great job!
