Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Nancy311, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.
I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

CP 133 Peer View (from Group 22)
[edit]Julie:
Part 1: Group 23 chose to work on “Prescription costs” with the goal of clearing up confusing information, adding resources, adding a new section regarding the role of the government, and adding information on patent policies. I believe their edits substantially improve the article because throughout all their edits, they were sure to add citations with reliable sources. For example, one edit greatly added detail about “drug ceiling price” by defining how this decision is made. There were also edits present in the lead that correct grammar, provide a better description of drug price comparison, and better define prescription cost. Each edit maintains a neutral perspective and is backed by a reliable source. One of the edits even removed a somewhat “negative” and poorly cited sentence. Overall, the article has a clear structure and I believe the group achieved its overall goals for improvement.
Part 2: Are the edits formatted consistent with Wikipedia’s manual of style? If not, specify…
Yes, the edits are formatted in a manner that is consistent with Wikipedia’s manual of style. The edits are worded in plain English and avoid both ambiguity and complex wording. Article titles are precise and concise. All of the section headings are presented in sentence case and not title case. Lesser known abbreviations are defined (e.g. National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE)) while more widely known abbreviations are not defined (e.g. UK for United Kingdom). Overall, the style of the article is maintained with proper punctuation and citations. Juliemarienguyen (talk) 18:46, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
