hi there, I often use wikipedia as a complement to scholarly articles when researching for work or my university studies, and as such came across the article 'Recovery-oriented practice' (or similar title). I work as a case manager in the mental health field and have attended many 'recovery model' training sessions in the course of my work. I found this article to be very well written, comprehensive, objective, and well-balanced, with an excellent list of references and sources used. I was so impressed I had to stop by here to compliment you on it, which is not something I have felt so moved to do before. The external links included were also a great read, particularly the critical analysis of recovery frameworks. Thank you very much for a fantastic contribution to the public!

Towards a diversity-minded Wikipedia (2011)

'The phenomena discussed in this section make it seem likely that high barriers exist for new viewpoints to be accepted in Wikipedia, even if they objectively contain useful information... At the same time, editors who have put a considerable amount of effort in their articles and have a strong personal motivation to contribute tend to be protective about what they have crafted over a long period of time. The same protectiveness could be attributed to WikiProjects, which follow a strict agenda.'

Ten Simple Rules for Editing Wikipedia (2010)

'Many scientists who contribute to Wikipedia fail to appreciate that a neutral point of view is not the same as the mainstream scientific point of view.'
