Evaluation[edit]

Fact: Most to all of the facts listed are referenced with an appropriate reference. Relevancy: Everything listed is relevant to the article. Definitely needs more coverage on the family side of Helen. The article seems to appear very neutral and gives information based on both sides of the equilibrium. The citation of Mothercraft could be a little biased towards females. Her hometown described her as a "doyen" of medical women once she passed. Missing information: THere is a lot of missing information that could be added such as her early childhood and also her relationship with her parents growing up and if she was passed along into the medical field or just decided to choose that route.
