message: Hi, I am working on this page as part of an assignment for a psychology class. I think that this article could be improved by adding more information on Levinson's early life, his research areas/interests/findings, and some of the concepts he came up with, such as the stage-crisis view. Additionally, the article can be improved by adding more credible sources as references.

thread_title:  Feedback for Assignment 9 

message: Since the safe assignment report came back showing no plagiarism other than that of the wikipedia article itself, I think that the rest of our edits for our final submission should be focused on tweaking & perfecting the article. That being said, I think we should continue to search for a picture of Daniel Levinson, as that is really the only thing that I think we are missing. Also, each of us could proof read our sections and revise any spelling and/or grammar errors that might be present. Otherwise as far as I am concerned the article seems to be in good shape for completion!
