I like the idea of improving a woman psychologist's page. I looked through the whole list provided on blackboard. Here is a list of all the women that I am initially interested in researching and why. Karen A. Matthews has a single sentence, so there is a lot of area for expanding her page. Lauren Alloy has a good start and sounds like she has some exciting research that would be fun to look through while adding to her page. Bonnie Strickland was a president of the APA but has a very short page that doesn't really say much about her career at all. Phoebe C. Ellsworth has a start to her page, but there is no organization to it. Rochel Gelman has a short biography, but there isn't any information about her contributions to psychology. Jill Morawski, Cynthia D. Belar, Lynn A. Cooper, Jessica Henderson Daniel,Rachel T. Hare-Mustin , Lynne Hasher, and Jill N. Reich don't have pages started, so it would be a fresh start.

Top two choices for Wikipedia Project

My favorite choice of the ones I originally narrowed it down to is Lauren Alloy. Her research is very interesting to me, and I was able to find a lot of information on her that is not yet included on Wikipedia with a simple Google search. My second choice is Bonnie Strickland because it surprises me that a former president of the APA would have so little written about her career on Wikipedia. I could find information on her a little less easily than Lauren Alloy, but it was still definitely possible to find a good amount.

I think those are both very interesting people that we could find more information about to really expand upon! I like researching people more than specific topics so I think this will be nice. Looking at both their Wikipedia pages and the information that can be found we would be able to add a lot

Feedback from Dr. Council: Lauren Alloy was taken by another group. However, Bonnie Strickland is a great choice. I've met her a couple of times and she is a wonderful person as well as an eminent psychologist. I can tell you some things about her that would be interesting to include in the article. J.R.
