@OxonAlex: Thanks for the amazingly prompt approval! I'd like to know what improvements are needed in the sourcing. My methodology was to keep citations limited to several well-established, stable, credible organizations relevant to the field of computer science and accessibility, as well as an interview into the history of the screen reader. Would it help to cite multiple sources for the primary claim for Jim Thatcher as the inventor of the screen reader (they do exist), or should I employ a different methodology? Looking at the grading scheme, Start status indicates, "Provides some meaningful content, but most readers will need more." As a relatively inexperienced Wikipedia contributor, I would like to understand what would get this article to C status, "Useful to a casual reader, but would not provide a complete picture for even a moderately detailed study" or even B status. My operating assumption was that readers would be seeking more information on his most notable achievement, the invention of the screen reader, and that this would be sufficient for that. But if more biographical data is needed, we could add that too. For context, this was part of a community effort by a set of digital accessibility professionals, so any information provided will help multiple contributors.
