OK, I usually just add comments and help complete it as well.

I did a minor copy edit myself. Things we need to do...

  • We need to fix the positioning of the sources. They should all really come at the end of the full sentence. Some people put them after the comma but I'm not a fan of that either. They really should come at the end of the sentence like I said. If the source is meant to be for a specific word or part of the sentence but quote marks around that part and then add the source at the end of the sentence.
  • There needs to be better formatting of the notes. Current note #2 by "Beale 1957" is good. The author and year are wikilinked and the page numbers are normal written. However notes like #4 and #5 are different. The page number has been included in the blue linking. It doesn't even clearly identify a page number as it has no "p.". Try to get all notes formatted like #2. — Realist2 17:30, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Roosevelt's prolific reading habits. - Is the word prolific an opinion? If so, put the word prolific between quotes "prolific". It might be nice to say who called it "prolific". — Realist2 17:54, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Roosevelt was quite bigoted, and most historians since the 1970s have summarized that the corollary was influenced by Roosevelt's personal beliefs as well.[15][16] - Here you really need to establish who believes he is a bigot and make it clear that it is an opinion, not necessarily a fact (I don't know anything about the guy to comment lol). — Realist2 17:59, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I think that's everything. Let's get this sorted , I'll give it a second look and it should be good. — Realist2 18:09, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
OK, everything seems done to me (you should have called me, I don't bite :-)), I'll read over it one more time and then hopefully it's ready. — Realist2 02:40, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Passed, well done. — Realist2 02:49, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
