Talk:Level of consciousness (Esotericism)


This page is extremely informative and well put together. It is very obvious that you guys did an extensive amount of research on the topic and put a lot of time into the page. The best part of the page is how you incorporate pictures into each section to make it extremely clear what you are discussing. It makes it a lot easier to scroll through the page when you can get a summary by just glancing at the images. The one thing I would work on is a clearer summary. For someone who is completely unfamiliar with the topic of consciousness it may be tough for him or her to grasp the main idea just from your summary. That is really the only change I would consider making because overall the page is very good and does not seem biased at all.Mularkey41 (talk) 00:51, 18 April 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This page was already up to Wikipedia standards before it even went live. :) So my suggestions will be relatively minor. I agree with the other reviewer in that the summary section of the article could be made a little clearer for those people who will be lazy and want to read a quick blurb. I also think that the article could be split up a little more. The different sizes of the titles and subtitles make the page a little hard to navigate. For example the the heading modern day beliefs is fairly close to the section Advaita Vedanta and when looking at the page a t a glance it looks as though there are font issues as opposed to a heading and a sub title. I think the use of pictures helps users to get a fairly good idea but anything to make it more user friendly is always a plus. Again you all did a fantastic job on your page and I can tell that a lot of time and effort went into this project. Can't wait to see the final result!Lindsayk19 (talk) 12:35, 18 April 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Well-written: This Wikipedia page is very well written, it has the same level of language as other popular Wikipedia page. You did a great job making your articles sound professional and accurate.

Comprehensive: You already covered a lot of information about this topic and went into great detail; I do not think it is necessary to add much more factual information on each section/category. You may want to add more information to the introduction paragraph. I would suggest discussing what the rest of the page will be about in the introduction (give a little information about each of the main sections listed in the contents). Also, you could consider adding pictures and more background information about the influential people that are frequently mentioned throughout your article.

Well-researched: It is obvious that a wide-ranging amount of research was done on this topic. You clearly have found a lot of great information and factual evidence. Your “notes” and “references” sections are very extensive and list a lot of helpful websites that the reader could do to for further information (excellent job!).

Neutral: Since a lot of facts are given with references to back them up, the information provides seems to be unbiased. You have done a great job with listing different opinions and beliefs on the levels of consciousness without implying that one method is better than the other.
