Talk:Causal Loop Diagram

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.

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.

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.

- 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.

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

- 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:
