The intro could probably be altered a little bit as it seems more like a subsection to Hall's page instead of its own article. With the examples (Hebdige and Morley), it would be good to explain how they utilized the method. In that case, it may also be good to move that section below the explanation of the different stages. I also changed the title on the Definition section which I think makes more sense unless there are other interpretations. What are some similar theories that could be linked to (either within the current article or in a "See Also" section)? This would give the article more credibility and act as a launch point for more info. You could also do the same with those articles, linking back here. Source-wise, the citations are good, maybe add some competing theories as contextual contrast?[[User:RyanG9114|RyanG9114]] ([[User talk:RyanG9114|talk]]) 01:15, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
I agree with Lavoile's suggestion of linking this article from other articles. Another place where you could link Hall's theory is the Birmingham School of Cultural Studies page (which I have linked from your main page. I also suggest to move the section on Morley and Hebdige after the definition of the model. I agree with Ryan that the section on Hebdige needs more work, especially because Hebdige does not really deal with media audiences but rather with how the practical and symbolic function of daily objects such as safety pins and dog collars can be changed through subversive appropriations (Hebdige's book is mostly about the punk subculture). There are many other authors you could use here and that I suggested for you to look up in the Media Society reader. Please add references to these authors and read those texts. Also make sure to reference the original texts and not the readers. The readers should only function as index references for you to find those texts.[[User:Mdseriis|Mdseriis]] ([[User talk:Mdseriis|talk]]) 01:25, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
