Article Evaluation
Thom Gunn

Very informative and the links work except for obituary ones. The page does not seem biased. Obituary of Thom Gunn US Poet Laureate (Robert Pinsky)-this link leads to Cal Alumni page not an actual obituary. Obituary of Thom Gunn (Daily Telegraph)-link just leads to Daily Telegraph main page. One contributor was removed for repeated copyright infringement. this page is a part of Wikiprojects biograpy, Wikiprojects California, and Wikiprojects LGBT Studies. We briefly touched on Thom Gunn in class but this article provides more insight to who he was as a person and a poet. Added a comment and source to the talk page. Added More information about his time at Stanford with citation to page. Fixed obituary link.
