Elizabeth Cady Stanton
Quite a number of changes have been made to this article since it received a B-class rating. I would like to know what further changes might be made for the article to be upgraded to an A-class rating. I realize there are still some citations that need to be tracked down and am hoping to find these so that the quotes and specific information involved doesn't need to be removed from the article. I also realize that the material contained in the section discussing Stanton's position on the 14th and 15th amendments and the schism in the women's rights movement is questioned by some editors. All the information is, however, cited and documented in a number of scholarly sources, and to leave it out would be to omit a major aspect of Stanton's life, work, and effect. I would like to know how others feel about this section in particular. Thanks so much for your time and input! Jancarhart 15:19, 26 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Support The article has a good structure, it is well written, it covers most of the information that you would expect (as far as I can tell - I know nothing about the subject as such), it meets all formal requirements I can think of, it has persondata, it has an infobox with all the basic info. What I do miss is a good list of her most important writings in chronological order. I assume that most of her work for female suffrage was done in writing; the "Stanton's writings and publications" could probably be expanded somewhat and a little more could be said about her skills as a speaker. Also there are som "citations needed" tags that need to be filled with...citations! - Duribald 20:19, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
 * list of writings cleaned up and organized with publication dates added for ECS books; added discussion of her speaking to article. All citations filled in -- save a couple that are still in process.


 * Support, but please work on the missing citations. Er rab ee 22:37, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. The tags should be fixed, and I would suggest the fixing of online sources used in citation with the use of Template:cite web or Template:cite news. Apart from that, the article is worthy of A-Class status.--Yannismarou 10:49, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
 * All but 2 of the missing citations have been found & referenced. Last 2 (quotes pertaining to ECS position on abortion) are in process of being tracked down. Jancarhart 22:50, 30 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Support. The article has been greatly improved in recent weeks and would benefit from a review and upgrade.  WBardwin 20:35, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
