Column for The Nation edit

I changed the status of her Nation column from being "on leave." Her column has been back for several months now, but it has switched from beeing bi-weekly to monthly.

Tawana Brawley edit

"Williams started a storm of controversy when, relating to the rape allegations of Tawana Brawley, she wrote in 1991 that Brawley had "been the victim of some unspeakable crime. No matter how she got there. No matter who did it to her—and even if she did it to herself."[5]"

The article cited here is a conservative website from 2014. Does it make sense to assert that Williams's statements from 1991 started a storm of controversy by citing an article from 23 years later? Would it be possible to cite a more convincing source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:B:A680:235:4486:E091:156B:8965 (talk) 23:08, 23 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Bad ISBN edit

Because it is causing a Checkwiki error #70: "ISBN with wrong length", I removed the ISBN from the entry:

"The Best Day Ever" (1998) (ISBN 1-597-03284-43)

I have tried unsuccessfully to locate the correct ISBN on the Internet. In fact, the only hit from a google search was this Wiki article. Knife-in-the-drawer (talk) 19:52, 9 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
