Advice and suggestions
As a librarian who has been here a while, I welcome you to WP. I'm very glad to find somebody working on these articles. However, I really don't see how the Outstanding Academic Title article can stand on its own--it's an editorial feature of Choice'', not really a separate publication, and we do not usually make articles of that sort. I'm planning to merge it in, unless you give some explanation of why that wouldn't be suitable.

We don't normally add editorial boards to articles, and I've removed that part of your addition to the American Men and women of Science article--we just list the editor in chief. Further details belong on the publication's web site, not here. Possible the best place to discuss these matters is WP:WikiProject Academic Journals.  DGG ( talk ) 17:11, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
