Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2019/Hate crime motivation

General editing and comment
Hey, awesome book chapter! Just be aware of the APA in your reference list, and you've currently got two reference lists.--Jackmccann021 (discuss • contribs) 07:05, 20 October 2019 (UTC) Hi there, was interesting to read your book chapter. I've made some general edits under your motivation heading. It seems that it not yet the finished product but I might suggest that rather than using all 8 motivational theories, you can select 1 or 2 that might explain why hate crime occurs. I think then this can be used to explain the theoretical framework of your topic. Also, I would also suggest the May 2017 assault incident be put into a case study box to highlight a real life example of your book chapter. It was under the subheading "Hate Crime in Australia". All the best! --U3054327 (discuss • contribs) 02:07, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

Hey, your book chapter was quite an interesting read. I do have a suggestion for your quizzes. To help them stand out a bit more you may want to colour code them so they stand out a bit more. You can do this either by inserting a template such as 'Robelbox' and then selecting the theme (which is equal to the colour just pick a number), the title, how big you want it to be and then adding in the content which would be the question. I think this addition would help just tie the rest of your chapter together to make sure the important parts stand out. --Briannathefox (discuss • contribs) 00:49, 20 October 2019 (UTC) Below is an example of what they would look like: Select your answers and then press submit. There is only one defining factor for hate crime motivation - TRUE. + FALSE.

This looks like it will be an interesting topic to read. For interventions I'd suggest a good place to start is government websites particularly those for crime related organisations and found this under the apa that may help https://www.apa.org/advocacy/interpersonal-violence/hate-crimes --Haylzw (discuss • contribs) 05:36, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

Internal links and hanging indent
Hi, I've just edited your "see also" section.

I provided internal links instead of the external links which had lots of words and hyphens. This makes it much clearer for the reader. If you'd like to do internal links throughout your chapter, or add any more, I'll let you know how to do it. If you type a word, say "motivation", all you need to do is highlight that word, then press the link button, and write "W:" then the title of the Wikipidea page. So for motivation, you would write "W:motivation". This creates an internal link to the Motivation Wikipedia page.

For the book chapters, I did a similar thing. If I wanted to internally link from my chapter to yours, I would write "Hate crime motivation". I would then highlight that, press the link button, and copy the text "Motivation and emotion/Book/2019/Hate crime motivation" from the top of your page, and paste that. This can be done with any of the book chapters, and again, makes it clearer for the reader.

I suggest changing your "see also" section, as it says "other book chapters", but also links to Wikipedia pages. Maybe you could just have the book chapters in that section, but when you mention key theories or words in your text (i.e. motivation, hate crime etc.), you could internally link there.

I also noticed that your references aren't in hanging indent format. I wanted to leave this for you to do, so you could learn a new skill. I tried to type the code out for you here, but it kept disappearing when I published my comment! So if you go onto the unit's Canvas discussion forum, and scroll down, you'll see a post titled "Hanging indent in Wikiversity page" which describes it well.

You've done a really good job so far! Hopefully my advice makes sense. Keep up the good work Kaylah-3163515 (discuss • contribs) 07:46, 13 September 2019 (UTC)

Hey, Ive just read through your book chapter and it looks great, however, i've noticed that you havent mentioned ways in which we can prevent and intervene hate crimes. After some quick research i found that APA actually discussed a few ways to reduce the prevalence of hate crimes and i've linked it for you if youre interested :) --U3160677 (discuss • contribs) 03:31, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
