Planned Filling of Content Gaps

The main issue with this article is a lack of content. There is almost no content other than the fact that Samter is an immunologist who discovered Samter’s triad. I found great information about Samter’s career and personal life, his notable publications, and what exactly Samter’s Triad is. I feel that Samter's life is a notable one and that many notable parts of this life have been left out of this article. This article has no real structure as it is quite short and is not divided into sections. When changing this article, I would propose a section added about Samter’s personal life, a section about his career and discovering Samter’s Triad, a section explaining what Samter’s triad is, a section about his legacy in the biomedical community including information about Samter’s Society, and a section about his notable publications. I would also want to include information about his encounters with Nazis as a Jewish doctor who wrote several articles satirizing the Nazis in the section about his career. Other than this, I also plan to do some minor copyediting and change some of the original text to have a more neutral tone. For example, I would want to revise the phrase “Most prolific medical scientist in the area of Samter’s triad” to be more neutral. Jzuccarello21 (talk) 14:13, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
