Welcome![edit]

Hello, Dwagg96, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

CAGE questionnaire[edit]

Nice work on your expansion of the CAGE questionnaire article. It looks good, but there are a few things that can use improvement.

  • For the two tables you added, you said: "Table from Youngstrom et al., extending Hunsley & Mash, 2008". However, you didn't provide a full citation for either of these articles
  • Section headers aren't supposed to include links, as you did for the "Validity" and "Reliability" sections. Instead, it might be helpful if you could explain, in a sentence or two, what these mean in the context of this article. That would allow a reader to at least get a sense of what's going on without having to click through and read the whole article. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:08, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks, Ian!

We'll add a citation to the Hunsley & Mash, and a link to the Youngstrom et al. We didn't know the etiquette about the link not being in a section header. We can fix that, too. We would like to add a summary sentence, as you suggested, and also keep the internal links to pages for people who want more detail on the concepts. We are working on a template to help people get started on new assessment pages quickly and in an organized way, so we'll invite you to look at the template, too.

Thanks a ton, Delaney, for moving things forward, and Ian, for the excellent feedback! Prof. Eric A. Youngstrom (talk) 01:42, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
