Complete Rewrite edit

I've totally rewritten this article, and hopefully it will be well-received. I can see that some people have already started editing it, which is great. Chaz! 21:26, 1 March 2007 (UTC)Reply


NPOV edit

Most prominent publication is clear and definite POV. That is just at a glance. Any statement like that needs to be backed with sources or it should be immediately removed.IvoShandor 04:41, 9 March 2007 (UTC)Reply


GA Review edit

This article fails to meet the Good article criteria and has, thus, been failed.

  • Image lack fair use rationales where applicable.
  • Fails well written criteria, way way too listy, lead doesn't conform to WP:LEAD.
  • Image:ClintonBrown.jpg: this image is incorrectly tagged, also note, press images DO NOT fall under fair use. The Brown Daily Herald website contains this copyright notice: Copyright 2007 by The Brown Daily Herald, Inc. All rights reserved, at the bottom of every page. I have recommended speedy deletion as these are copyright violations.

You can contest this at GA review, however, I can all but guarantee that this failure will be endorsed.

There are a host of other problems here, recommend a comprehensive Peer review before resubmitting.IvoShandor 06:57, 30 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
