  • New and long enough, all non-lead ¶ have inline citations, QPQ review performed, content of the hook and the ALT hook is backed with inline citations to reliable sources in the article. A problem is that there is a bit of minor close paraphrasing in the article relative to the sources used. See Earwig's Copyvio Detector results for more detail. Some of the paraphrased content is short phrases and names, which is okay, but a few areas in the article have some paraphrasing beyond this, and should be rewritten to correct this matter.

  • Northamerica1000 I have made a few changes to the text, but there is minimal copyediting I can do that will change any of this. The names are what the names are. The order of English requires adjectives to be in a specific order. The names of the awards she won and the schools she attended and teaches at are the names of them. If you look at earwig, its hits are mostly on names. There is this "president of the National Medical Association." I could move the word president, but it is still going to hit on the name. There is this "Oscar E. Edwards Memorial Award for Volunteerism and Community Service, the American College of Physicians, American Society of Internal Medicine" which I said Oscar E. Edwards Memorial Award for Volunteerism and Community Service from the American College of Physicians" which is still hitting on the names. "First African American woman" and "first black woman" both have repeated hits, as do Baylor College of Medicine Affiliated Hospitals, Dr. Edith Irby Jones Clinic, University of Arkansas, etc. SusunW (talk) 16:34, 27 December 2015 (UTC)
