Hi Cirt, I will review this article as I am interested in silent films.  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 20:50, 29 December 2013 (UTC)


 * 1) Remove the hatnote. Per WP:NAMB.
 * 2) Use full date of birth in the lead, please.
 * 3) There is no mention of his place of birth or death in the article, but it is the infobox; you should add this info to the prose.
 * 4) Be consistent whether "Howell and Howell" is placed in quotation marks
 * 5) Make sure that all titles in the filmography section are italicized
 * 6) The link to Locked Out does not go to an article on a film; please disambiguate this.
 * 7) Reference #10 is dead.
 * 8) For the AllRovi external link, you should add a parameter so (silent film director) doesn't show up; see the code at AllRovi person

I will place this article on hold.  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 20:59, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
