- It reads like a list. I would prefer it to be written as prose, i.e. the very short sections and paragraphs should be merged.
- There are no images! Try to see if there are any free use images that fall under the Wikipedia:Image use policy and fit under one of the Wikipedia:Image copyright tags that can be uploaded. To upload images on Wikipedia, go to Special:Upload; to upload non-fair use images on the Wikimedia Commons, go to commons:special:upload.[?] DrKiernan (talk) 16:05, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
Needs a lot of work.
- For the lead, read WP:LEAD and act accordingly.
- "Early Career" is listy. Make your article tell a nice story. And avoid stubby paragraphs.
- What is this ling quote in "Established control of Macmillan in America". Turn it into proper encyclopedic prose of yours.
- "Testimony before the United States Congress" is stubby.
- "Publisher of American Authors" reads like trivia.
- "Personal life" needs expansion or merging with another section.
- Format properly your online sources using Template:cite web or Template:cite news.
- Format properly your sources in Bibliography using the aforementioned templates, and Template:cite book or Template:cite journal or Template:cite encyclopedia.
- The same with Additional Resources, which IMO should be renamed "Further Reading".
- Do not put in "See also" articles already linked in the main text.
After the article gets improved, a new peer-review will be needed.--Yannismarou (talk) 12:49, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
