 * Symbol question.svg - - The article reads a little stilted, it mentions her first book being published, THEN that she had to publish the first five books herself? I think you can probably clarify that more. It also reads more like a magazine piece "spend time with her husband and kids" is not encylopedic to me. It is sourced, including the hook. QPQ seems to be done, but it needs a little clarification and more focus on Kilpack herself and her work instead of on her family life.  MPJ  -DK  22:46, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
 *  MPJ  -DK Thanks for your review. I chose to remove the information about spending time with family. I agree that it does not sound encyclopedic. I also removed the sentence about publishing the first five books herself to avoid confusion. I could only find that information in the one article in BYU's Special Collections. The majority of information that I have found supports the other claims about her first book being published. While she still could have self-published other books, I haven't been able to find information that bridges that gap. Are there any other specific things you recommend changing in the article?

 * Symbol confirmed.svg that has done it . I am passing this.  MPJ  -DK 22:21, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg I edited the article to restore the encyclopedic tone. The first hook is the best, but it's not verified by the article or the source, which says each title is a "food title". Yoninah (talk) 23:23, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
 * ALT 2: ... that Josi S. Kilpack wrote a 12-book culinary mystery series, each book having a different "food title"?
 * Yoninah In order to be in line with the source, I have proposed ALT2.
 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg All it needed were more sources, which I added. Calling on another reviewer to approve the original hook. Yoninah (talk) 21:36, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I was going to approve this but wondered whether the word "dessert" was appropriate for a wedding cake. Why was ALT2 struck? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:04, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Because I found a source that confirmed these are all desserts. Cake = dessert. Yoninah (talk) 12:08, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Well in that case, I will approve it. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:42, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Yoninah (talk) 15:09, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
