Hi @Gamze102 thank you very much for the article suggestion, I looked at it and it was so helpful and I have incoporated it into my chapter, so i really appreciate your contribution.

Suggestion
Hey there, this is a really interesting topic and I look forward to its completion! I think you have a good set up and have used images well, but one of the figure captions does not match the others! I'm not sure how much research you have done but article may help with Gestational surrogacy http://journals.copmadrid.org/pi/article.php?id=7fd804295ef7f6a2822bf4c61f9dc4a8 good luck! --U3160212 (discuss • contribs) 11:21, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

Thank you so much @U3160212 for your positive encouragement and feed back, I have fixed the figure caption now and really appreciate you pointing that out to me, I also found the article you suggested very helpful and will include it.

Hi, Great choice of topic, it is very interesting. My main suggestion would be to back up the motivational component of surrogacy with theories. What I mean by this is I think it would be beneficial to use theories that explain why some women choose to become surrogates. I am looking forward to reading your finished chapter, I really enjoyed reading what you have so far! --BB7897 (discuss • contribs) 22:11, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi @BB7897 - Thank you so much for your positive comments and very helpful suggestions! I definitely agree with you that more motivational theories need to be outlined and discussed.

Hi, very interesting topic and very well and thoroughly explained. Just a link which tells about the figures and more about surrogates : https://www.nytimes.com/1987/01/20/science/motivations-of-surrogate-mothers.html.--Dsaini3 (discuss • contribs) 12:49, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

Hyperlinks
Wow, this is such an important and interesting topic. I did see that you may have tried to hyperlink a Wikipedia page and it has not worked: 'Individuals who have encountered barriers in being able to conceive a child regard it as being a great personal tragedy, involving significant emotional pain and impacting their overall psychological wellbeing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childlessness#Impacts)'. If you are having trouble hyperlinking on Wikiversity this may help: https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Making_links. Good luck TaylorMal (discuss • contribs) 01:42, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

Referencing
Hello,

Your book chapter looks awesome, great work!

I fixed a few formatting issues on your reference list to comply with APA 6th edition (e.g., italicised journal volume number, removed the "pp" for page numbers, found and added the doi's for your articles).

Also, issue numbers only need to be included if the journal is paginated by issue (which is usually not the case). Here's a link that explains it further: http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2011/10/how-to-determine-whether-a-periodical-is-paginated-by-issue.html.

Hope this helps and good luck!
