Cholera
Hi, Kimmyfromtexas. I imagine you may be away for Thanksgiving break, but several of us are wondering about your timing with respect to addressing the issues raised at Talk:Cholera? reinstated the text you added to give you time to complete the work. Could you pop over to Talk:Cholera to let us know your plans for finishing the work? Thanks, and Happy Turkey, Sandy Georgia (Talk) 10:07, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi,

I had not initially budgeted more time to work on the article, but I am not closed off to the idea. However, I am a student, and final exam season is rapidly approaching. If I make further edits to the article, it will be in a few weeks after exams are over and I have more time. I hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving!

Hi, Kimmy. I've now taken a more detailed look at both cholera and Zimbabwean cholera outbreak, and am here to apologize for and retract some of my concerns and criticism about the cholera article. A closer look at the history diff by diff reveals that it was not your edits that introduced problems into the article, that most of the problems in that article pre-dated your edits, and that your contributions there were mostly copyediting improvements. In other words, no need for you to revisit! On the other hand, if you could look at the changes I made to the Zimbabwe article, it may be instructive for you to learn the importance of attributing opinion so that individual or editorial opinions are not stated as fact or in Wikipedia's voice. Many of the sources you used were opinion: think tanks like Cato Institute and the Baker Institute, and editorial in medical journals. One should take care in using sources like that, and always be sure to attribute the opinion to the person holding them. Here are the changes I made to the Political section of that article ... I think it's pretty well wrapped up now, and I don't think further work is needed, in the event you're busy. Best regards, Sandy Georgia (Talk) 21:27, 30 November 2013 (UTC)
