I'd like to point out that the picture associated with this article looks like a representation of the thought processes of those with anorexia-- a thin girl looking in the mirror and seeing a fat girl. That is probably something we should change as a lot of women in college develop eating disorders trying to avoid weight gain. 68.220.210.88 (talk) 15:40, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've written the Freshman 15 article (as based on a requested topic). Due to my negligence, there was a Freshman fifteen article, thus I've made an effort to merge them. This is my first time editing this much, please advice where I have went wrong! Thanks. olya 06:06, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm new here also! umm, but yup there are a couple of grammatical things that I would alter to ensure a clearer reading of this. Just want to check that its ok to go ahead and make some of the changes? Thanks (Sapient Vesta 03:01, 13 March 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Hey I am currently working on this article for a school project. If anyone has any suggestions or would like to help me out with this article you would be more than welcome. I'm kind of new to this whole experience so feel free to lend a hand if you are interested.Benro129 (talk) 18:08, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article is very interesting. I never really thought about all the causes of weight change in college before. It is well explained and has a good amount of pictures to go with it. Rudy4rachel (talk) 13:50, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article is really good! There are a few punctuation errors, such as missing commas. The pictures and charts really add to the article! Clarker1 (talk) 20:20, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hey guys, I found this article very interesting and informative. I made quite a few changes in grammar and syntax, adding a lot of commas here and there, but not making any revisions that would change the content. I do have a couple suggestions though. First, there were several errors in syntax. I would consider revising the 1st sentence under "College meal plans," the incomplete sentence under "College diet," and the beginning of "Binge drinking" (the wording is kind of confusing and ambiguous). Also, should "journal of adolescent health" be capitalized? Under "Nutrient deficiencies," it says that they may experience a number of deficiencies but only one is listed, so I don't know if you would want to add a couple more or change the wording. I also think that the section "research" could be moved under a different section as right now it seems slightly random or awkward somehow. Finally, the prevention section seems kind of redundant with every section repeating more or less the same information just worded differently. I would consider either combining the subsections or making them more distinct. But overall, I think that this is turning into a really good article with just a couple minor errors in grammar and syntax and some places where it could be better organized. Great job!

I think you did a really good job with this article. It was easy to read, but yet you cited well making it very credible. The only thing that I would change is to add to the Nutrient Deficiencies section. It is a little short, so I would either add more or just take it out. Other than that I think your article is very well written. It was also interesting and applicable to real life situations. Good Job! hersh016 (User talk:hersh016|hersh016]])

Worldwide view tag

If I'm not mistaken, the article clearly states this is a term used only in the US and Canada. Hence its not surprising the article is written in a US-centric POV. If there is no objection, I'll go ahead and remove the tag. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Walker9010 (talk • contribs) 21:14, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
