Topic development - Suggestion[edit source]

User:U3186080 Remember to separate the plan (e.g., dot points etc.) from your notes when you submit. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 09:48, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Subtitle suggestions[edit source]

I suggest trying to condense your 'post-traumatic growth influences' subtitles into 3-4 rather than 8, this may help with keeping the information concise and not overfilling one section. --U3187898 (discusscontribs) 06:42, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Section headings[edit source]

  1. Very good, but will need to be more selective - aim to provide an overview/gateway chapter. There may be more specific, specialised chapters on parts of this topic to follow. Aim for 3 to 6 headings per section. This is roughly already half the word count as a plan. Consider integrating the influences and fostering sections.

Key points[edit source]

    2. an example or case study.
  2. Key points are well developed for each section, with relevant citations.
  3. Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters. This will allow concepts to briefly introduced without detailed explanations - readers who want more info, can click on a link.
  4. Consider including more examples/case studies.
  5. Conclusion (the most important section) hasn't been developed.

Image[edit source]

  1. An image (figure) is presented.
  2. Caption
