Overall we would like to preserve most of the article layout with some minor changes. Here is our purposed outline for the article.
1. Overview and History 2. Examples 3. Research 4. Applications: Media, Health, Business and Economy, Education, Criminal Justice 5. Critiques 6. See Also 7. References 8. External Sources
Here are our plans for each section of the article.
Overview and History: We believe this section could go into more detail about what in particular produces the availability heuristics, possibly answering the question, how it relates to information retrieval. Also, the effect that familiarity and salience have on availability heuristics should be further developed.
Examples: For the example section we would like to reword some of the examples to make them less wordy and flow better. Also, plan to research for more examples.
Research: Additional sources could be used in this section. We also plan to reword this section in order to include the researchers names.
Applications: For this section we added the media section as a subsection. We thought that the media section worked better as an application rather than its own section. Under the media section we plan to include the benefits and/or problems when it comes to dramatic events or catastrophes. We also added an educational section because we believe that availability heuristics can also be used in the classroom.
Besides correcting grammatical errors and citing sources correctly, we will include some charts or images that will make the article more appealing to potential readers.

You might want to consider moving the research up and maybe switching places with the examples section. I feel like some examples will find their way into multiple sections. Whatever comes earlier tends to be considered more important. Dguyla (talk) 12:37, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
