Abbreviations

[edit]

Hi, please do not replace ISO 4 abbreviations in journal infoboxes with initialisms/acronyms. The ISO 4 abbreviations are well-defined and the field in the infobox is clearly marked as being intended for these abbreviations. All of our readers can read, so they don't need us to spell out these initialisms for them. In addition, "Sage Publications" is spelled "Sage", not "SAGE" here, following WP's manual of style. Some tips on writing good journal articles can be found here. Especially many pages on Sage journals could use some attention as that publisher apparently had some people create articles that really were not very good. Our writing guide for journal articles actually makes it easy to write/expand a journal article even if one has a COI. Thanks. --Randykitty (talk) 21:55, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
