Your sources look good, and the information you've drafted is easy to understand. Think about where this would fit on the WP article page; you might need to add explanation or introduction to integrate it into what's already there.

It is described as, our reflection of how we think we appear to others. To further explain would be how oneself imagines how other view him/her. An example would be one's mother would view their child as flawless, while another person would think differently. Cooley takes into account three steps when using "the looking glass self". Step one is how one imagines one looks to other people. Step two is how one imagines the judgment of others based on how one thinks they view them. Step three is how one thinks of how the person views them based on their previous judgments.
