Hi Theresa, The list of references looks solid, and the text you wrote works well. Let me know how I can be most useful as you continue working on your Wiki contribution. -Joanna Jml4bw (talk) 00:52, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Also, just out of curiosity, did you receive any feedback when you posted your reference list on the youth mentoring talk page? -Joanna Jml4bw (talk) 00:53, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

Feedback on article draft
Theresa, you've done a really strong job so far of including relevant information and reporting it in a clear, neutral manner. As I was reading the information on effects from the meta-analyses, I wondered if it might be useful to provide some information on what a "moderate effect size" means- perhaps this could be done by linking to another page on Wikipedia? (I'm assuming there's a page on effect sizes, although I haven't checked for sure).

Rather than listing every single outcome, you might just make a comment about the conditional nature of effects sizes- i.e., they can vary depending on the outcome being studied, and you can mention some of the common outcomes. I also don't think you need to be exhaustive about best practices at this point, but you're welcome to elaborate a bit more.

My final suggestion would be to consider adding in links to other Wiki pages, if you think there's a connection- for example, the effect size one I mentioned above, or if you list outcomes like "self-esteem", I imagine you could link to another Wiki page on this topic.

Your page is in great shape. I'll be assigning it for peer review this week. -Joanna Jml4bw (talk) 14:19, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

Additional feedback on article from Joanna
Theresa, this still looks very good. See my comments above- I still think it would be nice to add in links to existing wiki pages for terms like "effect size" and "meta-analysis", and for outcomes like "self-esteem". Other than that, the length is perfect and the writing is clear and neutral. Great work! -Joanna Jml4bw (talk) 17:15, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
