Suggestions at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Margaret Chorley Crosfield

Greetings, to speed up getting your draft approved, please address:

Some of the sentences lack flow, read more like bullet points: "First woman to be elected...". Try to adjust slightly for narrative style: "She was the first woman to be elected..."
Your article needs a clear WP:Lead section which sums up Crosfield in just a sentence or two, noting who/when/where she was and what she's known for
Your footnote formatting is good, and the book looks good, but we can't have an article based on a single source. Please find a few other articles or books that discuss her so we can ensure we're getting a cross-section of views about her.

Great start, just needs some tweaking to get approved. MatthewVanitas (talk) 16:07, 4 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
