Needs work
editThis page needs a lot of work. I've added a little bit, but I think more needs to be said about her actual writing, and it needs to be organized better.Nevergrowold 20:10, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
COI
editUser Dpyb is likely the author or someone working for the author. The only contributions by Dpyb to Wikipedia concern this page and entries are often marked "update/revision at author's request" which is to say the least, suspect. Aosasti (talk) 19:12, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
None of the issues raised earlier have been dealt with, in fact is now more obious that ever that the author herself is editing the page. Aosasti (talk) 17:51, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
It has been close to a month since issues were raised about this page and users Dpyb has yet to come forward on the talk page with any explanation as to the conflict of interest issues. Aosasti (talk) 17:37, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
More objective now
editI have removed unnecesasry puffery and bafflegab as well as self-congratulatory enumeration of each and every single award fo which she was nominated. The only awards that matter are the ones achieved or won.184.148.67.117 (talk) 20:56, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
