A page you started (Josephine Ball) has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating Josephine Ball.

I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process.

I've added some standard things for finishing off a Wikipedia article: categories, an "authority control" tag allowing linking to her published works on library catalogues, a "defaultsort" tag (essentially indexing that Ball is her surname and Josephine is her first name) and tags on the talk page marking her article for attention of relevant working groups.

To reply, leave a comment here and ping me.

 * As a follow up regarding Josephine Ball, please make sure you haven't includes any of your own opinions or analyses, which violate the core content policy of No original research. On Wikipedia, we summarize existing published knowledge and ideas, we do not present new ones, even if they are true. For instance the passage "Given that most... it is unlikely that Ball..." reads like it is your own analysis (who says it is unlikely?), not the accepted record (see improper synthesis of published sources). Take extreme care when using primary sources (e.g. individual papers) to make assertions (see primary, secondary and tertiary sources): the statement "one of the first papers on the role of hormones in learning and memory" should be sourced to a secondary source that makes this claim, not the paper itself. A good Wikipedia article will have no sense of an editorial "voice", in that all statements can be sourced directly to previously published work. Writing an encyclopedia is different from a review or research paper: since you have an academic background, please see advice for Expert editors and Wikipedia editing for research scientists. If you have questions, see the resources in your Welcome message above. Cheers, thanks for what you've provided, and happy editing! --Animalparty! (talk) 08:30, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
