User talk:Tghardy/Free recall

Your plan for improving the article looks good. More citations are definitely needed throughout, though depending on how difficult it is to find additional sources I think it would be acceptable to reuse the same source already cited at the end of a paragraph (i.e., just cite more frequently).

To me, the methodology section could use some tweaking. The recency effect should be introduced before the experiments that exemplify it, not in between them. On the subject of experiments, if there is a really well-known study on free recall (maybe the Murdock study in the Methodology paragraph?) it could become its own section. I mention this because I think Wikipedia sections with a lot of paragraphs can get too dense but this is mostly a personal preference - and if there isn't a really famous study on the topic then feel free to ignore all this!

This may be too time-consuming or not possible but I will suggest anyway: Is it possible to get the DOI's of the already used references so they can directly link to the papers that are cited? I think it might be helpful to people who want to read more into the topic for more niche info about experiments, etc. Again this may not be possible (some of the articles may not have been migrated online/the journals they are published in are now defunct) so ignore this too if so!

Overall nice job Tyler! BigDogS23 (talk) 11:27, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
