Over all the structure of the article is very nice, many sources and it is easy to read. You have described the topic very well in a very understandable way. The litterature you have used, is very reliable and trustworthy. I miss references for the loop diagrams.

    • I made the causal loop diagrams myself. The population rate CLD is a classic example but I don't think that I can reference to someone who did it first. Do you mean reference in the text?


Feedback on grammatical- and punctuation errors

I myself am not an expert in English, I could not give you feedback on grammatical and punctuation errors, but your article is written in a very understandable and simple language.

[edit] Feedback provided by Madrid:

Overall your article has a good size and the topic you have chosen is written in an interesting way, with continuous examples that help understanding the theory.

In addition, I like the fact that you have both included and commented figures throughout your paper as well as making a good set of references that complement your article. It is an engaging topic with a nice flow due to the connections made between the distinct points.


Below I include some corrections and comments that I personally think will improve your wiki article:

- I would state in the article where the references are used so the reader can take a look at them while reading.

    • The references are the small numbers in brackets throughout the article. The number is also a shortcut to the reference list, where all the references are shortcuts for the source of the reference. Do you mean, that the shortcut for the reference itself should be stated in the text?

'Bold text'No I ment the diagram, because I did not knew that it was made by your selv, sorry for that

- It would be nicer to add the conclusion on a separate point and avoid word repetitions within the same sentence such as: to avoid, is caused.

    • That makes good sense, I will try to do that.

- Find synonyms for (in relation to) in 'What is a Causal Loop Diagram?' first paragraph.

    • I will do that, thank you.

- From my point of view there are some grammatical mistakes, although they are just tiny details that can be fixed with a word translator. Here are some notes with the changes included:
