Mnemonics section- adding more context
I want to add more background on what a Mnemonic is and how it improves memoryAadyaa06 (talk) 11:34, 25 April 2020 (UTC)Aadyaa06

exceptional memory - mnemonicts
I wanted to restructure this section and add some more information regarding the argument for it being a learned tool rather than a natural ability. I also want to add examples of mnemonicts and they areas they specialise on in order to emphasise that the this the tool of Mnemonics is and can be used for very specific situations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aadyaa06 (talk • contribs) 12:57, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

I really like this suggestion, especially because it addresses one of the main points we discussed in class about mnemonics (that they are a learned tool rather than a natural ability) that was originally not a part of this Wikipedia article. As we've learned from the training modules and from our own experience using Wikipedia, readers benefit from having various perspectives and arguments equally presented to them, as Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and is not treated as an opinion page. Thus, I think your proposed changes reflect this and help improve both the thoroughness of the article and the reader experience. Great job! Ak509ak509 (talk) 04:57, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
