message: hi I'm Karley. I've been working on the MBCT page a lot attempting to clean it up. Would someone like to look at it and give me pointers? I'm not sure what clean up actually is but I've added references and lots more info. the original info was a webpage someone just copied and pasted on. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Karley1 (talk • contribs) 4 November 2006, 21:33
Hey this is Karley again. So, I've been working on this page for a couple of months and have made tremendous changes. Nobody has said anything so I am assuming it is okay. Let me know what you think and if more cleanup is necessary. Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Karley1 (talk • contribs) 7 December 2006, 01:57)
:Hi, Karley — you've been doing a great job with this article! I've been doing some further edits to comply with Wikipedia's Manual of Style. Here are some further comments and pointers, hope you find it helpful:
:* The first, and most important issue: You mentioned that "the original info was a webpage someone just copied and pasted on". If this is so, it might be a copyright violation and needs to be attended to! Any remaining text that was taken from the webpage needs to be removed. Which is the website that was copied? 
:* It's best if the first sentence of the first section is a sort of definition that sums up the topic. Maybe something like "Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is a form of psychotherapy that blends cognitive therapy with mindfulness skills."? 
:* I added some categories to the page, :Category:Psychotherapy and :Category:Cognitive therapy. Maybe there is (or should be created) a relevant category for topics on mindfulness that should be added as well?
:* Some parts of the text should be written from a more neutral point of view, an important policy on Wikipedia that is sometimes called NPOV. For example, take the sentence: "Depression is a more serious problem than how it is presently seen." Seen by who? And who thinks it's a more serious problem? 
:* I'm not sure that the whole section on depression is needed — this article should focus on what MBCT is.
:* It would be nice to have more primary sources. For example, "The World Health Organization (WHO) conducted a study..." — it's best to reference this with that WHO study, not a secondary source. (However, a secondary source is of course better than nothing at all.) I changed the style of references to the popular <ref>, hope you like that. 
:* When writing on talk pages, it's a good idea to sign you posts using four tildes: ~~~~.
:Hope you will continue contributing to Wikipedia on this and other topics! /skagedal... 21:32, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

message: This study compiles several studies and shows that mindfulness is not effective in treating depression or anxiety. I'm not good at editing Wikipedia, but this is rather useful IMO

message: Hi everyone, I am working on this article for an assignment. I was thinking about adding in some information on MBCT practices and benefits that might stem from it. So far, I have been looking in particularly at mindfulness-based stress reduction and considering on adding a small section on that as well as expanding on potential benefits of MBCT

replies: text: Hi I am reviewing this article and wonder if we could put more on the history of Buddhism and mindfulness? It says a lot about ICS and MBSR but no mention of the origins of mindfulness and crediting Buddhism which is how MBCT would have originated from as well. Does anyone have any sources we could add?
