This peer review discussion has been closed.
Hoping to get this article to Featured List status. Concerned about readability, etc. Don't have any experience in that particular realm of Wikipedia, so any help is welcome. Thanks! --Midnightdreary (talk) 15:32, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Ruhrfisch comments: A very impressive list. Here are some comments:
- I wonder why the poems are not in a sortable table (as the Tales are)? Perhaps the table would be too long if all the poems were in a single table?
- The lead / introduction is well written, although I would tweak one sentence to read One of his most important works, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue", was published in 1841 and was his first "tale of ratiocination",[1] today it is considered the first detective story.[16] (I think I kept the footnotes in the correct places).
- The lead says he wrote one novel, but the list includes two, so perhaps the lead should read ..include many poems, short stories, and one [completed] novel.
- I have seen lists where each subsection had a breif introduction - would it be possible to have a few sentences on his poems before that list, a few on his tales there, and a few on his Other works?
- Illustrations are good. If you want another idea on using galleries in a FL, see List of Pennsylvania state parks as one example.
- Finally, the internet references should list the date accessed.
Hope this helps, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 19:27, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
