Response to one of your comments

[edit]

Unfortunately, I'm about to leave for Chile for a week, so I won't be able to review your proposal. If you want to move ahead with the article, I do have one suggestion: If you name it College women in science and engineering instead of Lack of college women in science and engineering it will have a much better chance of not being deleted. It can still have the same content, and focus on the lack of women, but that will give it a broader sounding and more neutral title. Otherwise, given my experience with similar articles, I would say it is likely to be nominated for deletion. Kaldari (talk) 05:19, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Also note that article titles use sentence case rather than title case (strange, I know). Kaldari (talk) 05:20, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. In your recent article edits, you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Edits from Lenasilva

[edit]

Hey Juan! Great topic! I think the article is very well organized and I like the title that you ended up choosing, I agree that it is much more neutral.

I think the last sentence of the first paragraph could be edited to be a little more succinct: These explanations vary from beliefs regarding women's physiological inability to succeed as engineers, to environmental factors in women's childhoods that discourage them from entering science and engineering fields.[1][2] Of course, I'm not sure what your source information says, so feel free to disregard this suggestion if it does not coincide.

The last section of the first paragraph is currently: Two forms of activism tasked with raising awareness include both on and off-campus organizations. I think it would be more efficacious if it read: Two forms of activism tasked with raising awareness include organizations focused on college campuses and organizations that are geared toward the society at large. ...or some version of this - I just think "on and off-campus organizations" is too jargon-y for non-students.

I think there is a typo in the last sentence of the last section on Initiatives: Additionally, ethnic diversity is a factor that has been strongly suggested admissions boards prioritize.[19][21] --> it could be: Additionally, it has been strongly suggested that admissions boards prioritize ethnic diversity.[19][21] Also, in this section, you use the acronym "STEM" without clarifying what it stands for, maybe you spelled it out earlier and I missed it? If not, then it may be good to spell it out and then put STEM in parenthesis next to it.

I really like the organization and flow of the article. I think it makes a lot of sense and is easy to follow. I especially appreciated that you included a list of notable women engineers. Great job! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lenasilva (talkcontribs) 20:47, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Response

[edit]

Thanks, Lena. I'll use all the help I can get right now, and it certainly wasn't an easy choice for me to change the title of piece. I really wanted to include more information on foreign women engineers to make the article more complete, but I guess I'll have to settle for everything as is due to time constraints. I'll be sure to follow the two suggestions you outlined above, especially concerning the very last sentence in my introduction. I dunno, I seriously thought I had fixed that piece since I had full intention to expand it when I had originally written it. And yes, I'll be sure to fix that sentence regarding ethnic diversity, too. Regarding the STEM acronym, I actually defined it in the History section of my article. I figured that once was enough. Nevertheless, thank you for the great suggestions and I wish you the best of luck on your article as well.
