While this article includes good information, it is not written in a nuetral encyclopediac manner. I have added the peacock tag but please correct me if this was a mistake. However, I think the article is written using lots of emotive and flowery language. Phrases such as 'sagacious intelligence' and 'Her beauty, and the unaffected sweetness of her manners, bore the charm of unasserted mental superiority.' are examples of biased language but other inappropriate phrases are not overly biased but merely unecessarily long. Some information also does not seem to be related to her notability in any manner such as 'The clerical residence stood so far from the church of Long Horseley, that when rough weather and feeble health disabled Trotter from riding on horseback to attend the Sunday services, she was constrained to stay at home, unless a still more distant neighbor, Mrs. Ogle, chanced to be in the country, and to give her a seat in her chaise and four, or her coach and six.' These issues run throughout the article.
What's actually wrong with having an article about a literary personage written in a (somewhat) literary style? The note at the bottom of the page clearly identifies the source of this style.
As for POV, all writing about literature and other arts is going to necessitate a degree of subjectivity because, at bottom, the importance of any writer or artist comes down to a consensus of personal tastes. TL;DR I don't think articles about creative artists have to be colorless. Pascalulu88 (talk) 13:09, 29 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
