Edit[edit]

I've trimmed out most of the repetitive verbiage and tried to put in structure, though it still lacks citations and needs a child psychologist or similar to fix it Chrismorey (talk) 08:33, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

one of the problems is the reliance on dated citations, and being inline with more recent research. Such as DSM5 published this year. dolfrog (talk) 13:10, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion[edit]

Hello everyone, I am working on this page for a class project. I have made my updates in my sandbox and I'm looking for feedback for the wiki community! Here is the link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:NourhanMesbah/sandbox

Let me know what you think. Thanks! -NourhanMesbah (talk) 04:03, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Feedback for changes made in 2021 for a school project: Good addition of relevant information. I have though an issue I would like to point out: for the sentence "Mothers with higher education levels are more likely to use rich vocabulary and speak in longer utterances when interacting with their children, which helps them develop their productive vocabulary more than children from a lower socioeconomic status", the source cited emphasises instead that it is impossible to pinpoint the reasons that caused the results in their study. Is there another source that that information came from? Siewyeng (talk) 14:23, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

comment on the "language development in language delay" section under "Language Delay" heading[edit]

This article is great! one observation -- I wonder if this section is a bit redundant with the later sections devoted to presentation. My impression is that a couple of different presentations are mentioned in this section and perhaps it could be removed or changed to describe different patterns of development? cmacaulay970 (talk) 18:50, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I would agree, I think what could be added would be when children lose an ability to talk that they used to have (regression) which is usually a sign something is wrong. just a suggestion! CalciferoI (talk) 06:13, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

comment on the "early signs and symptoms (red flags) section[edit]

You guys have done a great job! A suggestion--I'm not sure if this is a formatting thing or if there is actually no citation, but under the communicative deficits section, many of your red flags do not have citations.HNoorul12 (talk) 15:20, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
