Article Rating

Going to bump the rating of this article down to a C for now. Multiple claims are unsourced, several of the sources in the "references" section are not attached to inline citations, and some of the citations are too short. I would also question the suitability of some of these sources, particularly the bookshop.org product page. Overall, I would not call this article suitably referenced per WP:ASSESS. I also don't know if I would call it reasonably well-written. Some of the choppier sentences near the end of the "Career" section could probably be punched up or replaced. "Her animal trope to critique society was later used by George Orwell in Animal Farm (1945)" stands out.

I may end up working on improving the article myself for the Women in Green Good Article Edit-a-thon, though, so stay tuned! Spookyaki (talk) 02:27, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looking closer, I don't think that I have access to the resources necessary to improve this article in the ways that I want. For any others who want to take a swing at it, I've found that there does seem to be a significant amount of biographical information written about her. If you have access to this stuff, maybe take a look:

Aguirre, Lavayén J. (1980). Adela Zamudio: guerrillera del Parnas [Adela Zamudio: Parnas guerrilla] (in Spanish). Cochabamba: Editorial Los Amigos del Libro.
Guardia, Sara Beatriz, ed. (2012). Escritoras del Siglo XIX en América Latina [Women Writers of the 19th Century in Latin America] (in Spanish). Lima: Centro de Estudios la Mujer Historia de America Latina. ISBN 978-9972-9264-9-5.
- Ayllón, Virginia. "Fin de Siglo XIX en Bolivia: Aproximación Comparativa de las Narrativas de Lindaura Anzótegui se Campero y Adela Zamudio". In Guardia (2012).
- Muñoz, Willy O. "Adela Zamudio: Una Obra y Vida Feminista". In Guardia (2012). This source does not contain as much general biographical info as its names implies, but should be useful for talking about her literary career.
Guzman, Augusto (1955). Adela Zamudio, biografía de una mujer ilustre [Adela Zamudio, biography of an illustrious woman] (in Spanish). La Paz: Juventud.
Ocampo Moscoso, Eduardo (1981). Adela Zamudio (in Spanish). La Paz: Ultima Hora. This seems to be the most well-cited biography of Zamudio.
Taborga de Villarroel, Gabriela (1981). La verdadera Adela Zamudio [The real Adela Zamudio] (in Spanish). Cochabamba: Editorial Canela.

This website also has a lot of great bibliographic info. Spookyaki (talk) 04:57, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
