Sarah's Peer Review
Hey Kristine! I just read over your draft and I think it’s really good. I like how you’ve been adding to several sections in your overall article. It made it interesting to read a little bit from each section to get a general overview of the content.

In your symptoms section, I’m not sure whether Globus sensation should be capitalized. Maybe double check that? In your diagnosis section, I would recommend putting a period after “investigated” and starting a new sentence with “These include”. This is just a preference, so both are fine! Also, at the end of the diagnosis section, you’re missing a period. In the treatment section I don't think that there should be a comma after “lifestyle changes in children diagnosed with LPR include”. Finally, I’m also not sure what you mean by “e.g. thickening” when you’re talking about the modification of food and how exactly that helps with LPR. Maybe you could elaborate on that.

That’s it for me! I think it looks great and I’m looking forward to reading the final copy!SarahJay (talk) 13:51, 26 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi Sarah! Thank you for taking the time to review my additions to the LPR article, I really appreciate your feedback. I have included all of your suggestions in my article. More specifically, I wanted to thank you for pointing out the 'thickening' example as I do believe this needed to be elaborated on. Thanks again!

Adriana's Peer Review
Hi Kristine!

I agree with the edits mentionned above by SarahJay. I do think that the information you've provided is very clear and concise, and your use of encyclopedic language is very good. There were no instances where sentences were unclear or difficult to understand.

I would however, encourage the use of hyperlinks, particularly for those more technical terms that a less knowledgeable reader may want to learn more about (eg. Globus sensation).

Otherwise I think your input is excellent, and am looking forward to see how it will be integrated with other information once the article is complete.

Great work!

 * Hi Adriana! Thank you for taking the time to review my sandbox, I really appreciate it. I completely agree that I should hyperlink the more technical terms! I have added a bunch of them to my article now. Thanks for the suggestion! VoiceDisordersKristine (talk) 22:27, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

Laura's Peer Review
Hello! Good job on your section drafts so far. The tone is consistent and neutral, and it looks like you've added all your references as needed.

Here are a couple details that could be improved:
 * Add hyperlinks (as Adriana mentioned), since many of the terms you mentioned are medical in nature and the average reader may have to look up.
 * Your diagnosis section is very technical, so perhaps you could break up the first sentence into two: "Additionally, several potential biomarkers of LPR have been investigated, which include inflammatory cytokines, carbonic anyhydrase, E-cadherin and mucins. However, their direct implications in LPR are still being established."
 * Maybe you could provide a brief description of what a "Proton Pump inhibitor" is, and what exactly it does to relieve and manage the LPR.

Overall, nice work! — Evans310 (talk) 22:44, 28 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi Laura! Thank you so much for taking the time to review my sandbox, your suggestions were great! I have already included some hyperlinks now as per yours and Adriana's suggestion. I have also broken up the sentences in the diagnosis section. Lastly, I have hyperlinked Proton Pump Inhibitors for others to be able to click on it and get a ton more information. Thanks again for your help! VoiceDisordersKristine (talk) 22:35, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

Feedback from Nicole
Hi Kristine

Good job! Your writing is accessible to both general public and professionals. I am glad that you included the information about PPI in children as well. You are also very responsive to your peer's comments.
