Review comments from AfC process

[edit]

It's still pretty promotional in tone in places, imo -- it reads a bit like a patchwork between a promotional piece and a more-neutral entry, presumably more than one author at work?-- and far too long. It's a bit out of my area but I believe the subject is probably notable; see [1] which makes her achievements clearer. The CV link {ref 1) has been taken down so the Chair is unsourced [eta: now fixed] also ref 9 to the Smithsonian. Ref 10 checks out, but needs to be attributed to Andy Grundberg in Grand Street. A lot of the refs, though not all, are to what she says about her work, in interviews (published in reputable places), and I think this material needs substantial pruning.

The 17 April 2017 deleted version by Bosworthentry is pretty similar to the first draft version submitted, also by Bosworthentry. However there's an AfD keep Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Barbara Bosworth on a version that was later deleted for being created by a blocked user, which is completely different (much shorter, encyclopedic tone); I very much doubt they're the same person.
