The article may be improved by following the WikiProject Biography 11 easy steps to producing at least a B article. -- Yamara 07:16, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Someone should add and link that her daughter b.1970, has been the Fiction Editor at the prestigious magazine, The New Yorker, for many years. I tried to add a mention, but appears not to have gone through. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:AD20:F000:78AF:E84:B52C:19EA (talk) 01:36, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Issues[edit]

The {{BLP sources}} template is a red flag that this article is not ready for GA. Sifting through it appears that is the case. Some specifics:

  • Heavily lacking in sources. This is a biography on a living person, so it is especially important to make it well-sourced. Claims like This theory was criticized because ... and In 1967 ... she published [a paper] that was central to the development of selective attention as a field of study sound likely to be challenged and must be verifiable. Nothing immediately appeared to me to sound libelous, as in such case the claim in question should be removed for legal reasons.
  • The Feature Integration Theory section may not meet the Wikipedia layout guideline. The sections therein should be done using sectioning markup per MOS:SECTION. The heading should not be wikilinked but a {{main}} template should instead be used – although the linked article does not exist anyway.
  • The article may need more links to help integrate it with other articles and the project as a whole.
  • Some images or illustrations would be helpful to make the article more appealing. Is there a free picture of her? How about something to help illustrate the Feature Integration Theory?

I have not read through the whole article as it's clear it does not meet GA criteria. I recommend the nominator read over the policy regarding biographies of living persons, and WP:GA? for more about good article criteria.

Date of death[edit]

We currently have a difference between the two sources given in the article.APS says: APS Past Secretary Anne Treisman, considered one of the world’s most influential cognitive psychologists, died February 10, 2018" but KTC says: "Anne Treisman, pioneer of perception and attention and namesake of our center, passed away peacefully on February 9, 2018." Which is correct? Should one be removed/ replaced? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:53, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also it's usual for a BLP article to have a Later life and/or Death section? Martinevans123 (talk) 22:56, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Someone posted a

tag on the article, but neither created an accompanying entry here nor identified what the conflict of interest might be. These deficiencies need to be rectified.Robert P. O'Shea (talk) 21:30, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Since the tag was added by an unregistered user with no explanation, I am going to delete the tag pending further information from the tagger. I am open to hearing about the COI and its possible reinstatement. Amuseclio (talk) 01:46, 13 March 2018 (UTC) Amuseclio[reply]
