Hi, I will be reviewing this against the GA criteria as part of a GAN sweep. I'll leave some comments soon. JAGUAR 15:56, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Checking against the GA criteria

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
"She shared her views via both prose and poetry" - seems a bit confusing. More specifically, what type of prose? Through articles in newspapers etc?

"Dalton's family sacrificed the help an eldest daughter brings to a household by helping her attend school" - I don't understand this sentence. You mean that the eldest daughter is supposed to stay at home and not go to school?

"Since she lived in rural areas" - Since she lived in a rural area

"In her many contributions to the Women's Exponent, she is often credited as "L.D.D."" - this seems awkward to have as a standalone sentence amongst paragraphs. Also, is it relevant? If you don't want to remove it then I recommend merging this with another paragraph so it doesn't disrupt the flow of the prose

A harvref error needs fixing (Harv error: link from #CITEREFSheree2002 doesn't point to any citation.)

Also, there's an error in the notes section
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
No original research found.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

This is well researched and broad for the subject, as well as a good read. I'll leave this on hold until all of the concerns are dealt with. JAGUAR 11:14, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the review Jaguar. I know that GA reviews take a long time, and I hope to do one or two myself soon! I replaced the Harvard reference with a regular citation template, and I reworded the sentences you noted were confusing/awkward. Do you have any remaining concerns?

Thanks for that! There are no remaining concerns so I'll pass this now. It is well written, comprehensive, and all of the sources check out, thus it meets the criteria. Reviewing GANs are easy – I've done over 600 of them!
