Relation to Political Science

Hi! The information you have in your wiki is relevant, but there is a lot of room for adding more information. The topic you chose is debated throughout the world, and it would have been good to just give stats about, for example the use of the legalization of abortion just in the United States or Canada. Narrowing down your choice of place would give you more structure and be able to give you more references that relate to your topic. You have have also taken the political science approach, explaining what democracy is and how it relates to the choices of being able to have a legal abortion. Adding more to each section of your wiki would have given more information to the viewer.

These two links talk about political science and its relation to abortion. Alexandra

Tons of potential in this topic!

Hi! I agree with Faisal in the comment below, the references are an absolute must! I'm hoping that this will come in as a last minute addition!

I enjoyed reading this wiki - my own wiki touched a bit on abortion in developing countries (not developed!) so they were a bit opposite which was cool for me to read. I feel like there is a lot of potential here to expand even further. Abortion is a very controversial topic, and our neighbor the USA, while a "developed" country has enormous controversy and lack of agreeance on abortion across their nation. It could be interesting to compare abortion laws in states across the USA or research the amount of unsafe abortions still happening in developed countries due to the intense dichotomy of legal and illegality in the USA. I thought it was great that you touched on the Roe vs. Wade case. I would have liked to see you link women's rights more into this particular topic, and perhaps consider what it means to put regulations or remove regulations surrounding a female reproductive system (often times men deciding these things for women). Great work :)

Hey there! Check out Dr. Henry Morgentaler! He was a Canadian born physician that actually helped Canada's pro-life movement, may give you some ideas for your page! Cheers,

Hi,
I like your post; it goes straight to the point and is structured nice and clearly. You are, however, missing a reference list at the end of your page, which could be necessary. Adding some more visual items like images might help grab the readers' attention, although this is is not that big of a deal!
Enjoy!
