A Lead Section was added last month - need to remove that edit -- (james northrup) 13:58, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lead Section, Refimprove flags have been removed. I would like to format the references better, but I don't think the flag needs to stay up. Wikitaco444 (talk) 19:31, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Connection to Subject Matter[edit]

The subject is indeed notable, and the article of interest. While one must be especially careful in W:BOLP this article does aim at the requisite NPOV, verified outside cites, and properly avoids independent research (like remarks from Aunt Tilda's unpublished diary). Wikipedia conributers can never entirely avoid a personal connection or at least some interest in the subject, or they would know nothing of the topic and wouldn't trouble to contribute. I think so long as continued careful attention is paid to citing recognized sources, and avoiding hagiography, this one passes muster.ElijahBosley (talk) 18:20, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup Questions[edit]

Hi, do we think these article issues are improved to the point I could remove these tags: refimprove, intromissing, and wikify? If not, any suggestions would be fabulous. Wikitaco444 (talk) 18:51, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Intromissing you could certainly remove. I am not sure what wikify really means or what more the article could do in that respect. I tend to agree with refimprove though. Perhaps after taking off Intromissing you might move the remainder of the tag to this discussion page as an ongoing reminder, and then later take it down when you are confident all pertinent sources are cited.ElijahBosley (talk) 22:38, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
