Major additions needed
If somebody knows more about this subject than I, please, please add. I would also like to make articles for Eliot's siblings and will do so once I get real information on them. If some already exist, they are not linked to in any article about Eliot's family.--Dark Green 20:52, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Peer Edit and Suggestions
I think there are just a few things that could be fixed with your article. First, I believe there are some things that you can link to other Wikipedia pages, such as Washington University in St. Louis, if you would like to. I would just keep an eye out for more of those things if you are interested in making more links. Second, there is a sentence in your Early Life section that is a bit hard to follow, "she was born the second daughter and second of nine children". While after reading it a second time I understood what you were saying, I did have to stop to re-read it, so, I would suggest rewording it. Third, your Life with T.S. Eliot section does not really talk about her life with T.S. Eliot but just about his life. I would suggest changing the title of the section, or adding more information about their relationship, or just not including that section at all. Fourth, you are missing sources on your Work and Action section and your Death section. Lastly, normally the Reference, Notes, and Citation sections are one thing, and yours is a bit confusing. I think that some of your links were not entered right and that might have something to do with it. Also, I believe you have some of her own personal writing on your reference section, and those need to be in their own section. The three that I noticed were these:

Eliot, Charlotte (1899). Easter Songs. Boston: J.H. West. Eliot, Charlotte (1904). William Greenleaf Eliot, minister, educator, philanthropist. Boston, New York: Houghton, Mifflin. Eliot, Charlotte (1926). Savonarola, a dramatic poem. London: R. Cobden-Sanderson.

You could possibly label that new section Notable Works. Overall, you have a great start to your article and I hope my suggestions were helpful! — Preceding unsigned comment added by JacquelynSkoch (talk • contribs) 17:11, 4 October 2016 (UTC)

I don’t have a lot to say about this article honestly. I think it is written extremely well. The only think I could think of is adding more information if you can. Looks like there was a lot of research done. The introduction starts to turn into a run on sentence in my opinion if you wanted to break it up a little bit.

Peer Edit Responses
Thank you both for your responses, as I can't wait to contribute more to this article. I like that you brought up the point of making more links, as it is important because that would mean that I had more sources, which in turn would make the article more creditable. I need to go through the article and reword sentences that don't seem to make sense. I feel when I do this, it will be more concise and clear. In the T.S. Eliot section, I have researched information, but my research is not complete and therefore I haven't added that information in yet! Once I add this information in, it will be a much better section and make more sense. So reference, notes and citations are all one category? I might look into this just to see.

I will make these changes to the article and add more information. Once the information is added and the article is edited, I think it will turn out to be a great piece! Thank you both for your comments.

Feedback from Prof. P
I see that there are several pictures that are possibly of Charlotte Champe Stearns online—and definitely one of her grave (here http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=11826374). Can you see about getting those uploaded to WikiCommons to attach to her page? Let's get these women's *faces* on the web too! It looks like there is a picture on ancestry.com. You can use this resource from the Daniel Boone public library. Let me know if you need help with that. MeganPeiser (talk) 13:39, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

Looks great. Lets get these updates done by December 2016! The selection from her letter to T.S. Eliot is especially lovely. MeganPeiser (talk) 22:27, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Change title of article to Charlotte Champe Eliot?
Should the title of this article be changed to "Charlotte Champe Eliot"? It is that name under which she published and thus is known publicly. --Jeremy Butler (talk) 11:57, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
