Wikipedia:Peer review/Masters of Doom/archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have never written an article for a book before so I want to get some advice and feedback as to what to do with the article.

  • There's some content in the, er, Content section that probably needs to be cited as it goes beyond the usual "the citation for the plot is the work" kind of stuff.
  • In terms of general readability, if there's not additional information to fill out some of the subsections, I think you're best of axing them and allowing the text to flow uninterrupted (for example, in the "legacy" or "publication" sections.
  • The main gap in coverage at this point seems to be any further information on developing/writing the book. Not sure how much is out there to incorporate.
  • Given the amount of reviews the book has gotten, I think it would be best to break up the critical reception into aspects rather than just listing off one review after another.
  • Is there anything else you can draw from the Gamespy coverage? I see that they gave away copies of the book and Kusner did a Q&A which might be worth briefly mentioning in terms of promotion.
  • Reprints or anything to add to publication history?
  • I feel like there should be a source out there on the lawsuit's resolution, even if it's just the filings from the court.
  • Doing a quick search, I found reviews of the book from the Library Journal, Washington Monthly, Publishers Weekly and others. Send me an email and I can shoot you some PDFs to incorporate.
