It should be noted that the above section heading "Untitled" was retrofitted by a 'bot 5 years+ after the two 2007 contribs in the section were made.

This article reads like a paper someone wrote for class right now. It needs to be cleaned up. Daniel Case 18:55, 8 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

If this article seems biased, then it is because it's main source is the autobigraphy of the subject, always a tricky source of information to deal with. But despite this I found the article informative and a good starting point for further research.

Effective use of talk pages

edit

   In the preceding section on this talk page may be seen the first two talk contributions that arrived. The first is vague (or dare i say silent) about in what way(s) the article is (or was) wanting. The second is vague about whether it is intended to respond to the first (as i would infer it the second were indented), or is just an independent assessment.
   That said, diffident discussion is often the fate of an article that (as perhaps with this one so far) may not be getting as much editorial attention as it deserves -- or may be getting improvements that don't need much explicit interaction (beyond the per-edit summaries that may be seen via the article-history page(s): (hx stats) for piecemeal improvement to be made.

As noted, this reads like a school paper dumped onto Wikipedia. Since she did a lot to shape Vogue into what it became, this needs to be rewritten into something more like what we expect, at least. Daniel Case 17:09, 29 March 2007 (UTC) & Jerzyt 03:53, 20 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
   It's clear that the unorthodox placement of the above discussion contrib, here on Talk:Edna Woolman Chase/Comments, duplicated your and my mutual colleague's similar but orthodox contribution on Talk:Edna Woolman Chase, around 7 to 9 weeks earlier. Thus i am striking it thru on this sub-page only in order to reduce any future confusion. Please make any further comment regarding the two contribs' (similar, and i'd guess identical) content, in the section Talk:Edna Woolman Chase#Untitled, below the (earlier) version there.
(And also, probably, both below, and a tab to the right of, the newest comment that your response takes into account.)
