Wiki Education assignment: Adult Development Fall 2023

In future, please do not use Ageing or any other medical articles for coursework. It is irresponsible to have non-experts place medically misleading statements online. For example, I am removing the word "stroke" from the Introduction, as the (juvenile?) editor is evidently ignorant of the fact that stroke is a cardiovascular disease. There are many more such problems which have been introduced after each year's "coursework". We medics cannot fix things fast enough before the next mistakes are entered. Thank you for your understanding. 37.5.242.95 (talk) 10:33, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

60s

Hi there, would it be totally out of the realms of expectitude that we might develop separate wiki articles to focus on the separate decades of age that we, as humans, typically experience? 0s, 10s, 20s, 30s, etc? I am here because I just tried to wikilink to an article on 60s (decade of human age) (or something in that vein) which I presumed would exist but it turns out that it doesn't, and the closest we have is just an article on Ageing (?), which I find a pretty weak substitute.

Granted, there's so much breadth around the world as to what a human being going through their 60s (for example) experiences, and what that age bracket requires, exhibits, and demands in different cultures and socio-economic situations etc, but I think we as a community could tackle this. Oh but then I guess these things change over time, and it might have to be dub-divided into 60s (decade of human age) in the 17th century, and then 60s (decade of human age) in the 18th century, etc or whatever. What do people think? Ridiculopathy (talk) 12:15, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ridiculopathy: You might want to look at Category:Human life stages. Alternatively, if you're looking for an open-ended discussion about matters of concern regrading your age, an AI-based chatbot might be more suitable to your needs. Fabrickator (talk) 15:51, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just throwing the idea out there. Who knows what the future may hold. Ridiculopathy (talk) 14:12, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
