The article claims the subject was born in Indianapolis and died in 1929, but without sources. The Indiana University page here gives a different place of birth (Patriot, Indiana) and says she retired from her main job in 1941. These changes seem radical but possibly correct if various books were published in the 1930s-40s. AllyD (talk) 22:27, 16 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

The article claims Ms. Stevenson wrote over 400 books. Exaggerated claims of numbers of books written by authors are ubiquitous on Wikipedia and greatly undermine its credibility. Upon checking the two sources cited for this claim I find neither states it. I'm therefore removing that claim. Ms. Stevenson was indeed prolific and may have written as many as 40 published books, but certainly has not written 400. The NYT 7/9/1976 obituary article on Stevenson states she was 105 when she died "yesterday," making 1869 impossible for her birth year, but I am leaving that alone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DanQuigley (talk • contribs) 22:23, 26 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
