Great job on your article! I remember talking in depth about Kellogg in the context of light and electrotherapy - I didn't know much about his work on massage therapy until now! Here are a few suggestions I had based on my initial read:

1. I think that having sections would improve the readability and organization of the article as a whole. Since you're writing about a book, I'd recommend finding another Wikipedia article on a famous book and model its basic structure.

2. The article focuses a lot on the details of the book's content - I think it would be helpful to expand more on the development, reception, and legacy of the book in a broader context. What were his motives for publishing this work? Who was his audience and how was it received? How did it influence the practice of medicine in the future? etc...

Overall, fantastic work! Glad to see that some students created their own pages - that's a huge endeavor, and I applaud you!

Yeah you are probably right, sections would be a good idea. Not sure why I didn't think of that originally... Finding another book is a perfect idea, thanks! I'll try to find out more surrounding information about the book, that would probably add to the article for sure. Haley Wendt (talk) 02:47, 3 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
