Edits to Lucid Dream Article:
Full name to just "Eeden" in second sentence

"the most interesting ones" to "the dreams that seemed most important to him"

Re-phrasing for clarity and grammar purposes. "Throughout all the data he collected from dreaming, he created different names for different types of dreams" to "He created different names for the different types of dreams he experienced; each name being created from the data he had collected."

Re-phrasing for clarity and grammar purposes. "In this state of dreaming, Eeden explains that..." to "While describing this state of dreaming, Eeden said..."

7 to seven

"sufferers of nightmares" to "those who suffer from nightmares"

"The person who lucid dreams" to "Individuals who experience lucid dreams..."

Changing "People to "Those" and changing "first experience a lucid dream" to "Those who have never had a lucid dream may not understand what is happening when they experience it for the first time."

Edits to Decay Theory article:
Changed 'When we learn something new" to When an individual learns something new"

Changed "Often, evidence tends to favour interference related..." to "Evidence tends to favor interference-related..."

Module 9: Answers are in response to the three articles (in this order): Lucid Dreaming, Neuroanatomy of Memory, Decay Theory

A lead section that is easy to understand


 * Looking at the lead by itself, do I feel satisfied that I know the importance of the topic? Not really, NO, Yes
 * Looking at the lead again after reading the rest of the article, does the lead reflect the most important information? Somewhat, NO, Somewhat
 * Does the lead give more weight to certain parts of the article over others? No, N/A, No
 * Is anything missing? Needs more of a summary, (literally missing the lead), not missing anything
 * Is anything redundant? No redundancies on any of the leads

A clear structure

Are the sections organized well, in a sensible order? All are well organized, specifically the Neuroanatomy article

Would they make more sense presented some other way (chronologically, for example)? All structures flow well

Balanced coverage


 * Is each section's length equal to its importance to the article's subject? All display the appropriate amount of length
 * Are there sections in the article that seem unnecessary? "Creativity" is out of place in Lucid, but nothing for neuroanatomy or decay
 * Is anything off-topic? Again, "Creativity" in Lucid dreams seems off-topic
 * Does the article reflect all the perspectives represented in the published literature? Sources are spread equally through all sections of each article
 * Are any significant viewpoints left out or missing? Viewpoints are covered in detail for every section
 * Does the article draw conclusions or try to convince the reader to accept one particular point of view? None of the articles are persuasive in nature

Neutral content


 * Do you think you could guess the perspective of the author by reading the article? I couldn't guess for any of them
 * Are there any words or phrases that don't feel neutral? Articles maintain neutral tone and words throughout
 * Does the article make claims on behalf of unnamed groups or people? For example, "some people say..." None of the phrases appeared on any article
 * Does the article focus too much on negative or positive information? Each view is expressed. Each article is informative and not persuasive in nature
