Vandalism

I have removed vandalism which had been in the article for a good year. [1]. --Minderbinder-de (talk) 10:58, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Adolph Meyer has had a huge impact upon the delivery of mental health services in America. His ideas about the Psycho-Social aspects of mental illness became the cornerstone of the Social Work Profession in America. The psycho-social diagnosis came to include Biological factors as well. His ideas in many ways have been supported by the works and writings of Ken Wilber, one of the most influential philosophical and sociological scientists of the late Twentieth and early Twenty-First centuries.

More information on Phipp's clinic and its impact int he progression of psychiatric treatment. Also add references, sources and links on mentioned subjects.

Peer review

Nice work with the article so far.

The Further readings section has a lot of information that can be added to the body of the article. It should also be cut down in length and have external links added.

Wikipedia links should be added to the Phipps Clinic and a few other major people and institutions mentioned within the article.

The legacy section is quite lengthy, and difficult to understand. Perhaps sort it into publications, awards, appointments, etc.

In-text citations are matched with links in the Notes section. They should be in the References section.

In the information box at the beginning, is Influences and Influenced necessary? Some of the people are never mentioned in the article.

Nice job! Jdeales1 (talk) 16:37, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review

Some suggestions for your article:

  • Have you read any information about his death? Usually, there's a sentence or two about the subject's death, so it could be helpful to add that to the article.
  • I think the section "Ideas" could be renamed to something else. Maybe you could say "Contributions" or "Influence on Medicine"?
  • When you mention William Henry Welch, you could link to his page. Here's the article for William H. Welch.

Overall, the page looks great! You guys have made great improvements. Nice job! Ahong11 (talk) 18:10, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
