Article Evaluation

[edit]

The article seemed to be completely relevant to the searched topic (women in the medieval ages). It had several sources, all of which were active and seemed reliable. Behind the scenes in the talk section, there was definitely some discussion happening. There were different suggestions and request, all of which allowed the page to become better and more informative.


Choosing Topic/Finding sources: In the article about Jacqueline Felice de Almania, I would add more information regarding the trial and how Jacqueline's situation affected and reflected other women during that time. Although it states general information about what happened, more research needs to be done and more details need to be fixed/added. For example, the page says that she was put on trial simple because male physicians got angry at her, although true, it is not the whole reason. I would add more about what lead to her being on trial, how she had been able to treat and cure more than the academically trained physicians, or simply how even the Archbishop warned her about what she was doing (something not necessarily mentioned in the page) [1]. Additionally, I would also emphasize how even though the trial ended in women no longer being able to practice medical legally, there were still a significant amount of female physicians practicing medicine, more so than male physicians.

== Possible References [2] [3] [4] [5] == Drafting the article: Lucy Hobbs Taylor was the first American woman to graduate from dental school. She graduated from Ohio College of Dental Surgery in 1866. In graduating, she paved the way for other women to graduate from dental school and have the ability to enter a profession that allows them using their brains. Originally, and like many other women, Lucy Hobbs Taylor obtained her degree as a school teacher at first, and while teaching in Michigan, she became more and more interested in medicine, which later lead to dentistry. Unfortunately, her journey was not easy. Because of her gender, Lucy Hobbs Taylor had to create her own practice in order to be fully recognized by the Iowa State Dental Society and allowed into the dental school[6]. Once she obtained her doctorate in dentistry, she continued her practice everywhere she went. She eventually got married with Civil War veteran James Myrtle Taylor and mentored him into dentistry. They both continued to study and practice dentistry in their own practice, paving the way for future women physicians and dentists.

I really like all the information that you are adding to this article. I feel like you add a lot to her personal life and to her professional life. Just a couple of grammatical errors that could easily be fixed with a brief over look of your draft. But I like what you are contributing. Good job!

[edit]

Lucy Hobbs Taylor Lucy Hobbs Taylor (March 14, 1833 – October 3,1910) was a school teacher and a dentist, known for being the first women to graduate from dental school in Ohio. She was originally denied admittance to the Eclectic Medical College in Cincinnati, Ohio due to her gender. Due to this, a professor in the college agreed to tutor her and encouraged her to practice dentistry. Once again, she applied to a dentistry school, this time Ohio College of Dentistry. Unfortunately, she was once again refused admittance due to her gender. From there, a college graduate agreed to tutor her. In 1861, she decided to open her own practice instead of attempting to get into a college once again. After a year, Lucy Hobbs Taylor moved to Iowa and opened a dentistry practice. This allowed her to be accepted as a dentist without the diploma and become part of the Iowa State Dental Society. Being part of this society meant that she was also serving as the group’s delegate to the American Dental Associate Convention, only 3 years after moving to Iowa. With great coincidence, that same year (1865) the Ohio College of Dentistry decided to waive the policy prohibiting women being admitted to the institution. Instantly, Taylor enrolled as a senior student thanks to her dentistry experience she had accumulated over the years. She graduated in 1866, becoming the first woman in the world to receive a doctorate in dentistry.
