The page is on the short side and is lacking in citations. The lead does not serve as a concise overview of the article. The Genre overview section relies too much on a bulleted list—can that be worked into prose? The article does no say where the term "Low fantasy" originated. Who are the most notable authors who write in this genre? Have there been low fantasy films or TV series? Instances where specific books are listed as "low fantasy" should be cited (such as a review where it is clasified as "low fantasy"). Hope this was some help. — RJH (talk) 21:22, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
