An Ohian feminist author, eh? I'm intrigued! Averageuntitleduser (talk) 21:48, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Well-written
Not much to fuss over:
 * Jones' — for the two instances, rephrase or add another "s".
 * done all three.
 * The New Orleans area and the bayous were known to Jones, who regularly visited her sister in Jennings, Louisiana. — I thought this stuck out a tad. Could it be tied back to, say, her books or writing style? Or qualified time-wise? If not, it probably suffices.
 * She wrote a book about a slave (who does not know she is a slave) in the bayous, so I thought it is useful to clarify she knew at least the geography from her own experience. Tried to rephrase.
 * Beatrice of Bayou Têche ... "the bayous were known to Jones" ... whoops, forgive my blunder. Still, I do like the flow of this rephrase. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 02:16, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
 * "Cuba" is linked in the article but not the lead.
 * I am not sure what is best; MOS:LEADLINK and MOS:OL may allow a range of things here.
 * Ooh, you're right. I tend to use the country rule of thumb, so I've delinked it if you don't mind. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 02:16, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
 * She was included among a list of Iowa authors in 1890. — even if it's not too significant, noting the list might be helpful.
 * Will do this later. Thank you for the review so far! —Kusma (talk) 10:45, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * We have an article about the author of the list, so definitely worth a little bit more precision. —Kusma (talk) 13:19, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Verifiable with no original research
Looking at the sources, I'm seeing no red flags. Many university presses, prominent authors, and peer-reviewed journals. Despite being a re-issue, Kolterman 1991 is essentially a secondary source. All sentences are cited inline, and I've little close paraphrasing during the spot-check.

Broad in its coverage
Some standard checks on Taylor & Francis, Springer, Muse, Newspapers.com, and JSTOR either return sources in use, advertisements, or passing mentions, usually in conjunction with Unveiling a Parallel. This is a short article, but I do believe it covers its bases.

Neutral
No issues on this front; opinions are attributed.

Stable
This is a given; no recent edit wars or content disputes.

Illustrated
Assuming you haven't found any portraits or drawings (I haven't either), this is a pass. Jones seemed fairly low-profile, so I wouldn't be surprised if her portrait was never published. The title page's public domain licence seems correct.

Summary
Thanks for sticking with me happy to promote this article! Averageuntitleduser (talk) 18:16, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
