I'll look at it again once you're done with these comments. It's been a very interesting read until now.  Vedant  Talk  04:27, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
 * First set
 * "La Marr's name appeared frequently in newspaper headlines during the next few years. In November 1914, she came back to California from Arizona and announced that she was the newly widowed wife of a rancher named Jack Lytell and that they were supposedly married in Mexico. She also stated that she loathed the name Reatha and preferred to be called by the childhood nickname "Beth"." - The source for this?
 * "After marrying and moving with her third husband, vaudevillian Ben Deely" - moving in?
 * "She was credited as writer Barbara La Marr Deely on the films The Mother of His Children, The Rose of Nome, Flame of Youth, The Little Grey Mouse, and The Land of Jazz." - Do we know any of the release years?
 * The Hollywood Walk of Fame is very very worthy of being mentioned in the lead (The opening paragraph preferably).
 * You might want to source all the "In popular culture" claims.
 * While the Career section could be fleshed out substantially, I'm not too sure if you'd be able to find many sources on her or her films' performances? Is there anything you can do to make the section carry somelre weight?
 * Also, a lot of the material from the Career section could be used to form a "In the media"/"Media image" section, but only once the Career section itself has more weight.
 * I believe I've addressed all of the logistical and reference concerns you raise above. As far as expanding the career section of the article, it is a bit of a difficult task given the lack of material available for reference; what is out there is largely anecdotal/trivial, though Snyder's biography may offer some details worth including here. I will have to look more into this, but generally, there is not a great wealth of available information. --Drown Soda (talk) 07:53, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Well, in that case, I do not see any reason to delay the promotion. The prose is reasonably well written and substantiated with reliable sources, all of which look to be in fine order. You can always add whatever information you find to fhe article. Good work, I'm going to pass this.  Vedant  Talk  08:42, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Final comments

. Three short citations are broken: "Donnelly 2003" should probably be "Donnelley 2003", "Synder 2017" should probably be "Snyder 2017". "Martson 2010" is missing from Works cited entirely. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 09:56, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
 * P.S.
 * Thank you, I've (hopefully) fixed the typos. Book citations were never my strongest suit.  Vedant  Talk  10:39, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Looks okay now, . – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 12:25, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
