Identify Relevant Subject Guides

Appropriate subject guide for writing biographies

After reading through this subject guide which provides general guidelines and tips for editing a biographical article on Wikipedia, the following are some of the most important points I found. Making an effort to keep your writing neutral is perhaps one of the most important guidelines I came across in the subject guideline. Although this idea was emphasized in our trainings, I feel that incorporating this into the subject guideline is an effective means to remind editors to not use biased language when writing about another person's life experiences. The guideline also provides a brief description on how comprehensive biographical articles should be organized in order to ensure that information flows as smoothly as possible. The guideline suggested the following order: Lead section; early life; careers/deficing experiences; legacy and publications/other works. Since my goal is to edit an existing stub-class article about Abel Wolman, I think following this structure will be beneficial in organizing different categories of information. I appreciated the fact that the guideline emphasized the fact that it takes time to write and edit a reliable biography, which is why it is important to not procrastinate and always ask for help if one is stuck on a specific section of the article. By providing examples of reliable biographical articles, such as that of Anne Frank and Charlie Chaplin, I was able to understand one of the key points of the subject guideline, which was to use an impersonal tone. Overall, this guide did a fantastic job in summarizing key aspects of a comprehensive and reliable biographical article on Wikipedia by providing examples and general guidelines.

This is the sentence I added to the Health Economics article and the citation:

"Health economics is important in determining how to improve health outcomes and lifestyle patterns through interactions between individuals, healthcare providers and clinical settings."
