Questioning / Why section needs types and communities
When giving reasons why people self track the information is almost identical to types of self tracking and "what type of communities" of self trackers exist.
https://wiki.openhumans.org/wiki/Self_Tracking,_Disambiguation first section of combined with https://wiki.openhumans.org/wiki/Reasons_for_and_against_self_tracking_and_quantification reasons for
when I write that section will it be added here or be linked out from here as an in-depth article on this section or will we have two different starting points for the wiki.
Not mentioning the other communities feels dishonest. - DG
- Oh, I had somehow not seen those two pages before, but those seem very relevant and cross-linking them as more in-depth explorations of reasons for/against self-tracking and the different existing communities sounds really good! - Gedankenstuecke (talk) 17:14, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
Bunch of small concerns
"one" tense this is called right?
Variability! see my post in the forums (variability in variable you want to change is defined by the fact that it changes sufficiently for you, but what if the intervention only comes after deciding on variable) and that is only the target variables like HRV
more examples would be really nice because some of the advice here feels too vague and obvious.
there are many pages already on the wiki. If this is the first page people see then this page should probably link out to many of those pages as either examples or more in depth look at a subject.
positive/neutral/negative I like unsure P N Definite P N and Extreme P N .. i will do that in the self assessment page
"check whether one can export and access all observations." you can do that on the wiki
Are you sure this is not too similar to the book?
"Discovering" seems wrong; how about "reacting"?
