[edit]
Lynne E. Maquat, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.
The article has been assessed as Stub-Class, which is recorded on the article's talk page. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

There is actually some major work that remains to be done.

  1. I accepted the article because as a member of the NAS, she clearly meets the requirement for WPPROF. But I removed the section on her research, because the footnote numbers embedded in it made it unmistakably clear that it had been copied from some published source. We do not do that. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously; and does not accept material copied from other sources unless it is in the public domain, or released to us under a free license (It is, by the way, not necessary for pages to have a notice to be copyright: everything published on the internet or elsewhere is copyright to the owner of that content unless specified otherwise.) It might be possible to get permission, but there is no point in doing so-- the description is a little too technical to be ideally suited for WP,and it It is therefore better to rewrite. You must also Close paraphrase.If you base it on a single source, you must cite the source, but also changeg not just the words, but the arrangement into sentences and the sequence of ideas. Be sure to make links to pertinent WP articles on subjects mentioned for additional background. I would also suggest putting much less emphasis on her work as a grad student and post doc than on her own independent work since then--it is that subsequent work which led to her notability .
  2. There is some basic material missing: date and place of birth, dates of her degrees, appointments following her postdoc, all with dates. A link is needed to her full CV, if it is on the web, not just to her personal summary page. It will also help somewhere to give a list of her most cited papers.

These matters are important. Were it not for the NAS membership, I would probably have not bother making the extensive format changes I needed to make, and instead, as reviewing administrator, deleted it entirely for copyvio.You must fix the problems, and do this very quickly.
