Anna Green Winslow edit
- ... that Anna Green Winslow wrote a series of letters to her mother that she combined into a diary, which provides a rare window into the life of an affluent teenage girl in colonial Boston?
- Comment: Not my article, but a nice one moved from AfC.

No QPQ required because nominator =/= writer. It appears neutral enough. Plagiarism check [1] [2] no concerns. Hook is properly formatted.
Article not fully supported by inline citations. (On a personal note, I dislike ibid because if some one adds another source, it makes it difficult to know what was actually intended to be sourced.) For clarification, Winslow, Anna Green (1894). Alice Morse Earle. ed (in English) (eBook). is what [16] ^ Ibid. supports? Two different Winslow books are cited. ^ Winslow, p. 121. Which is is that? ^ Winslow, p. 6 Which one is that? ^ Winslow, p. 7 Which one is that? ^ Winslow, p. 71 Which one is that?
- I'll ask the writer about that, as she knows more about the topic than I do. In fact, you should probably turn this nomination over to her. David1217 What I've done 15:17, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
- Neutrality wise, something about this just feels... off. It would almost make more sense as Diary of Anna Green Winslow. There is primary source reporting in the article describing the contents of the journal to write about the subject and framing it that way, rather than laying this information out as fact.
- Same thing. David1217 What I've done 15:17, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hooked fact not supported by inline citations. --LauraHale (talk) 12:31, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
- Clarified the hook. I think it's cited now. David1217 What I've done 15:17, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
Article fully sourced. Ibids removed so it is clear what sources are being referred to. Hook found in article and supported by sources. Big improvement. Bravo. Good to go. --LauraHale (talk) 01:54, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
- Congrats to the author—she's done a great job. David1217 What I've done 01:56, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
