-Decided to switch to a different sign whenever there is a lack of good sources for my original choice. Also, adding pictures is quite complicated due to copyright/permission barrier, so will not pursue for this course. MaybeMD (talk) 06:24, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

-Went down to 1 page per day, which is more realistic pace for my schedule.


Here's my peer-review of the edits so far. This is a super cool topic you chose, it is really interesting to go through and learn about the different radiologic signs. I like the amount of detail you go into with each page; it is an appropriate length and the organization is great. I was able to follow along with your descriptions, but it may help to use some more lay language for readers who might not have a medical background. That being said, I don't think any changes need to be made to your prior pages. The references seem to all be from reliable sources. My only other feedback is your work plan has a lot more pages for you to cover, so you could possibly decrease the number of pages you work on given the timeframe of the class. Overall, looks great! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.165.154.108 (talk) 01:57, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the great peer review. I definitely acknowledge the descriptions could be less jargon-y, but this is hard to do given how advanced these imaging topics can be. I also want to avoid having to define things that have associated wikipages that they can read through for more details (so I just linked medical terms to their pages). I also recognize that I was overly ambitious with my workplan, and made a more realistic schedule for the rest of the course. Thanks again. MaybeMD (talk) 15:08, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
