NPOV dispute

Their a few things I'm unsure about. Sentences like "Dr. Emecheta’s timeless writing continues to resonate with readers across the globe" and "Dr. Emecheta's literary contemporaries include many of the finest writers on the 20th century" set off subjective alarm bells. Any thoughts anyone? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nully (talk • contribs) 05:53, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Quite right. I deleted the first sentence you quote and the entire pointless "Contemporaries" section, as well as much other PR and repetition. Still needs work, though. Languagehat (talk) 22:07, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
