Your edits are good, but you misspelled "grammar" in your edit summaries. Josef Horáček (talk) 17:27, 12 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Adding Sources

edit

The first source is a children's magazine. Is that really the best you can find? I recommend that you try to find another source.

Your new source looks good. Add it to the article. Josef Horáček (talk) 00:46, 26 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

The second source looks good. Go ahead and add it to the article. Josef Horáček (talk) 17:28, 12 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

The Lead

edit

Your lead is a good start. Some of the wording is a bit awkward, and I'm not sure you need the first three or four sentences - they are too general and pertain to athletic injuries as a whole. So, get straight to the point. It's okay for the lead to be short.

Don't capitalize the names of the injuries.

There's a couple of other things you should do once you post the lead. First, delete the whole section header and paragraph below the table of contents (it's kind of a fake lead). There should simply be separate chapters for each injury. Second, you should consider linking to this article from other articles, such as articles on swimming or different strokes (see the banner about orphans at the top of the article for an explanation). This step is optional, but it would drive more traffic to the article if you want people to see your lead. Josef Horáček (talk) 00:09, 22 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Excellent job. The article looks a lot better now. Josef Horáček (talk) 00:46, 26 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
