Feedback from New Page Review process

[edit]

I left the following feedback for the creator/future reviewers while reviewing this article: This is good work for a first article! Notable subject for an article and no major problems. I've added some standard things to finish off an article on an academic: I've added a "default sort" tag, so she appears in categories indexed under surname not first name, an "authority control" tag linking to her work on library categories, and a few categories. Important is the "living people" category, as articles on living people often need more scrutiny to prevent vandalism. And put in a reference list and set it to display in columns, and a tag on the talk page for what type of article this is. Few formatting things: it's customary to put references after a full stop, with no space (someone wrote a bot that automatically fixes this, though). While I can tell you put a lot of work into it, in my view it's rarely worth doing a bibliography for an academic who publishes frequently, they're so often out of date the day after they're added and just mirror whatever website the information came from when the page was written. (Though it's maybe more useful in the case of an academic who's retired and doesn't have a faculty site where they can list what they think their most important work is, as here.).

Great article with accurate information. The academic paper list will need to be updated frequently as this author publishes regularly. Marlism (talk) 20:09, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
