Well written. Would be picking up the review, and amending straight forward changed. Feel free to revert/change any mistakes that I make while I edit the article.

  1. Is it well written?
    A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
    B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
  2. Is it verifiable with no original research?
    A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
    B. All in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines:
    C. It contains no original research:
    D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
    B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
  4. Is it neutral?
    It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
  5. Is it stable?
    It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
  6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:
    B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
  • We need a source date for all the web citations (if possible, as all of them may not mention one).
  • Also, replace references 17, 23, and 24. They do not seem reliable.
  • References 29, 30, 31, and 36 are not working, so replace that too.
  • There are a lot of places with two continuous spaces.
  • "which published his work until his death" his only one work or works?
  • "and his writing was also published in..." was it only one writing or writings?
  • Link Boston, Massachusetts.
  • @MBlaze Lightning: Lastly, there is a slight copyvio issue. Would be great if that could be dealt with.
  • Done
It still shows with this and this. Just slight paraphrasing is required. @MBlaze Lightning: Adityavagarwal (talk) 12:50, 29 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Done :)
It is still present with the first one (nytimes). A slight paraphrasing will do. here Adityavagarwal (talk) 18:02, 29 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Adityavagarwal: What that tool shows as a match are names of awards, publications, and common phrases ("the son of", "was named one of", etc). Nothing to be concerned about.MBlaze Lightning T 05:28, 30 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yep. Although, if you check now, it is done.

The rest seems fine to me. Adityavagarwal (talk) 13:25, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Great work! The prose is especially good, as there were almost no errors. It is a definite pass! Adityavagarwal (talk) 06:38, 30 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
