Addition to Gregg L. Semenza Article
The article on wikipedia fails to mention much of Dr. Semenza's personal life so I am adding some sentences here that were obtained from an interview by a journal:

Dr. Semenza grew up in Tarrytown, New York. His mother worked as an elementary school teacher and his father as a social worker in New York. He also had two brothers and two sisters.

Biography Subject Guide
There are a variety of points brought up by the Biography subject guide brought by Wikipedia. Of course the main one would be to not only follow the Wikipedia guidelines but to understand them and with this, comes other good points such as we should not stray from accuracy, close paraphrase, lean towards a more biased tone of writing than neutral, procrastinate, and we should engage with editors sooner rather than later! They also brought up the good point to organize the article we plan on making or revising (which in our case is more of an expansion than anything else) so that it would be better to read and learn from. Also, there were many tips on how to find start or stub class articles and how to write articles on the living or deceased as well as how to start an article in general. Overall, there were many good points brought up by the Biography subject guide made by Wikipedia that my partner and I will keep in mind as we start editing our newly picked topic: Paul Hugh Emmett.
