Comment

Hi, once you put content on an article page, it will be judged as it is. Some comments on the draft

Book and journal refs need page numbers
It is considered one of Murnane's greatest and most ambitious works— A couple of refs doesn't make it incontrovertible fact, and it has a promotional tone. I'd rephrase something like It has been described as one of Murnane's most important works works
If you can add any facts, such as sales or awards, that would be good
If there were negative or neutral reviews, (I'll look if I get the chance), you should include them for balance
If you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, you must declare it. In particular, if you have a financial interest, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Ergwald. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Ergwald|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. Please do not edit further until you respond to the COI query.

Thank you for the COI response. For single references, just put the page number or range, eg ^[1] or ^[2] For multiple refs to the same book, personally I put ^[3] etc as the ref and then have the book in a new "Cited texts" section, below. For multiple refs to the same source, give it a name as I've done with the first example.^[1]
