Alex Haley
An important topic that needs to be added to the article is Irwin's relationship with Alex Haley. --Orlady (talk) 22:12, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Article quality review
I have been vociferously and repeatedly challenged to explain why I don't consider this article to be C class, but instead rate it as a Start. First off, I continue to assert that that "C" rating was assigned by the contributor of the article -- even if the article was first created by someone else, these changes are most of the aticle content, and the person who made these changes should not be rating the article. Accordingly, I consider the C-class rating to be a self-rating.

As for the article, I consider this article to be one that "has a usable amount of good content but is weak in many areas." Quality of the prose is not very unencyclopedic, and there are some MoS and organizational issues. Furthermore, many readers will need more content (note, for example, my comment above about the lack of information on Alex Haley -- also, I think the list of written works is incomplete). --Orlady (talk) 19:57, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
