Feedback

Hi Denise! Thanks for your edits to the article and Wikipedia. I'm quite interested in global health and it's nice to have a fellow Wikipedia similarly enthusiastic. Speaking of GAs, I might just schill a little for them, as heaven knows we need some more reviewers! A list of all articles that are waiting for a review is here Wikipedia:Good_article_nominations. Despite what other Wikipedians tell you about reviewers, they're a fairly random lot (me included!) If you're interested, I'd encourage you after one or two weeks to have a look and even try reviewing an article or two yourself... probably a small article at the start (it can get quite addictive!) It's a truly fascinating way to get a glimpse into a wide-variety of generally well-edited quite interesting topics, and there will always be a few that interest you.

In terms of the review, there are some things that will, more-or-less, definitely stop you from passing. That's not having statements that are sourced. Make sure it has a thorough copyedit beforehand for any grammatical problems, that will almost definitely get picked up. Then it is quite dependant on the reviewer. With any luck you'll get someone who knows a fair bit about the healthcare system in China and can contribute something relevant to the discussion.

I quite like your article. There are some significant events that you may want to mention (or not! it is up to you) that I feel might expand this article and are relevant to Healthcare Reform in China. These include:

• Complete eradication of schistosomiasis during the 1960-1980s (don't quote me on the dates here!)
• Development of the parallel military health / public health / TCM systems
• Implementation of the new mental health laws in 2011-12
• Changes to the organ donation system starting next year (moving away from forced donation)
• Reforms made to the blood transfusion system in the early 1990s following HIV/AIDs transfusion outbreak
• Reforms made to public reporting of infectious disease following the SARS outbreak in 2010.
• Reforms made regarding the 'one child policy', population aging, and the abortion epidemic at the moment (and loosening of the one child rules recently)
• Attempted reforms made regarding the water supply in major cities, and also the air quality, both of which have attracted a lot of attention this year!
• May want to mention a little bit about Violence against doctors in China (ok, a little bit biased here, I did write that article!), particularly the issues of a very demoralised workforce in a profession that is not popular with wages that are quite low, and any efforts to tackle that.
• Any problems affecting the large undocumented workforce in the major cities

I hope this helps. China is a huge country and this article will probably need to be suitably broad! I'm sure you know that this year both the Lancet and the BMJ have been running series' on Healthcare reforms in China. Review articles there would be a good place to start. I'd love to help myself but I'm trying to take a wiki-break at the moment, and there's no guarantee I can respond in a timely manner! I'll contribute after November 14th. I wish you well!

Thanks for the advice, LT910001! Those are some really fantastic ideas that I also think would strengthen the article. They're very specific but interesting details. I'll be sure to include them as I continue striving to expand the article! Deniselee26 (talk) 07:07, 26 November 2013 (UTC)

Social Entrepreneurship and Ashoka

Hi, Denise! I hope you are well - my name is Daniela and I currently work at Ashoka. Browsing Wikipedia, I found out that we don't have an entry, while Skoll and other organizations do. I also noticed that Ashoka redirects to Social Entrepreneurship - an entry you had worked on for a while, and improved a lot, from what I read. I was planning to start a project here about putting together a page for Ashoka, thinking it could be an important way to explain its relevance in the field of social entrepreneurship - and we could do a directory of all our fellows, such the Nobel Prize has one. However, before I started, as you clearly have spent a long time working on this and finding your way inside of Wikipedia, I wanted to get your opinion: do you think this would be interesting? Would Wikipedia editors be sympathetic of the project? Would love to hear your thoughts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DaniMatielo (talk • contribs) 23:51, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
