Talk:Pinchot–Ballinger controversy

Problems with this article
Essentially, here are the problems with this article. I'm going to do my best to expand the article and fix these problems, but I'd be interested to hear if others agree that I've pinpointed the right areas for improvement. Timber Trail (talk) 19:29, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It's rather sketchy and inadequate as a resource. It covers the basic facts of the scandal, but little else.
 * It appears to rely entirely on only two sources, each of which is used as a footnoted citation exactly once.
 * My research indicates that the consequences of the scandal (the split in the Republican Party in the 1912 presidential election, leading to the election of Woodrow Wilson, a Democrat; and the rise of future U.S. Supreme Court justice Louis Brandeis to the national stage) lend it importance. If this is indeed so, they are not discussed in detail here.
 * It contains neither a historiography of the scandal nor much information on how the scandal was perceived at the time.
