Hi, I will read and make straightforward changes as I go and jot questions below: Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 10:27, 20 May 2017 (UTC)


 * I'd put the isolated last sentence at the end of the first paragraph (which summarises works). Keep lead at two paragraphs. For an article of this size, I reckon another 2 sentences of most notable content for lead would be prudent.


 * I'm an Australian so valedictorian is not a word familiar to many of us. I'd link it.


 * Any info on his father - did they ever reconnect?


 * In the 2nd para of the Career section, we have these early works. As none have individual pages, some more info on what they actually are and are about would be good to put in.


 * Avoid lots of small choppy paragraphs - some need to be combined.


 * Do we have any info on why he wanted to be a writer?


 * also, he was obviously really poor for many years, did okay after the game show, but did he ever talk about when he became really comfortable from writing?

Ultimately if we can't find sources for some of this then so be it - but I feel the any of the above that can be added will help round out the article. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 10:43, 20 May 2017 (UTC)

1. Well written?:
 * Prose quality:
 * Manual of Style compliance:

2. Factually accurate and verifiable?:
 * References to sources:
 * Citations to reliable sources, where required:
 * No original research:

3. Broad in coverage?:
 * Major aspects:
 * Focused:

4. Reflects a neutral point of view?:
 * Fair representation without bias:

5. Reasonably stable?
 * No edit wars, etc. (Vandalism does not count against GA):

6. Illustrated by images, when possible and appropriate?:
 * Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
 * Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:

Overall:
 * Pass or Fail: - great, a nice read. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 05:39, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
