  • My first reaction is that the article does an okay job with describing her acting career but will leave the reader wondering regarding other biographical details. Even the most basic such as where and when born, where and when died are absent. From this clip in the New York Age Defender she died in February 1956, lived in The Bronx in New York, and had the full name Susie Sutton Brown. From this clip in the same paper she had been ill the year before. So it's worth taking another look through WP:LIBRARY resources to see if more can be found.

  • Thanks for finding those. I must have missed the text buried in those other sections. It's a lot to scour through. At the same time, however, African American actors of that time period were covered more for their theatrical activities and weren't given long biographical exposes like others did. Even just the noting of her death, as you've shown, is a single line buried in a massive news article of random information. I don't know how likely it is to find stuff about her early life beyond what we already have. But I'll check. SilverserenC 22:27, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • So doing rest of review. Article length okay at 2588 B (434 words) readable prose size. Article move to mainspace date okay. Neutrality and sourcing okay. QPQ done. Hook length well within limits and hook sourcing verified. Wasted Time R (talk) 22:25, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
