peer review feedback

Anna: i think this looks really good! if you read through it, I think there are a few places where the sentences could be condensed or made less wordy but everything makes sense and you do a good job relaying all of the information in a neutral way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Annasamuels (talk • contribs) 18:20, 21 October 2017 (UTC) As discussed in person, the article presents a neutral viewpoint on Branch. The information is relevant and gives a good overview of the subject. Additionally, there are enough references and the citations work and are correct.[reply]

Joseph: Overall, great work! I agree with all that Anna wrote. I have a few more suggestions that I think will make your wiki article even better. I notice you attached a link to Mary Lydia Bolles Branch "wiki page" but she doesn't have one, simply remove the link. I suggest you break down the article's Education section into more sections (e.g. career, publications, etc.) to follow a cohesive flow. Three of the references end with: "Check date values in: |access-date=" in red. This requires attention and fixing.

Giselle: I really appreciate the directness of her accomplishments and life. It seems unbiased and professional: just the kind of thing that should be on wikipedia! I do believe however that if you have the chance to add a bit more to the introduction and perhaps some details of her as an individual (if you are able to access these) would certainly help especially seeing as we have access to some great first hand resources. Overall pretty good! Also is it supposed to be posthumously?

This is a message for the creator of this excellent page on Anna Hempstead Branch. Thanks for a needed entry on an American poet who should be much better known. I believe Smith College has a collection of photos and papers of hers, and perhaps they would be willing to allow the use of one for this article. I learned of her from lectures given by poet and philosopher Eli Siegel and I've come to love her. Thanks again.Trouver (talk)
