Yes, it is listed as a C-Class article, but that was a while ago! I've fixed everything so that there's no page needed or citation needed in the article. I have also added more knowledge that I'm sure makes it at least above c-class. There is a good amount of sources and information about Eliza. She is notable because she is a main character in the broadway hit, Hamilton, and she helped shape our history by allowing us to find out more about Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, and by founding Graham Windham. Please let me know your thoughts on nominating this lovely woman to be one of the approximately 0.60% of good articles on Wikipedia! Ali Beary (talk) 13:55, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

There have been a few books released in recent years that have had Eliza as the central character - one biographical work 'Eliza Hamilton: The Extraordinary Life and Times of the Wife of Alexander Hamilton', by Tilar J. Mazzeo - and a few historical fiction books - 'My Dear Hamilton: A Novel of Eliza Schuyler Hamilton' by Stephanie Dray and Laura Kamoie, 'I, Eliza Hamilton' by Susan Holloway Scott, and 'The Hamilton Affair' by Elizabeth Cobbs Hoffman. Should these be added to the 'In Popular Culture' section? 2607:FCC8:FED2:7800:782A:EAE3:E68A:8076 (talk) 21:46, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
Will someone please add: "In the The Jack Benny Program episode "The Alexander Hamilton Show", Jack Benny dreams that he is Alexander Hamilton. Jean Willes plays Elizabeth." Thank you. 47.152.71.253 (talk) 18:51, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

Notability
editLike many landowners of the time, Philip Schuyler owned slaves, and Eliza would have grown up around slavery.
- But nobody has mentioned slavery, and this is just a pointless comment, typical of many disembodied statements slotted into wiki pages by what is obviously a new breed of diversity editor. Non-encyc, apart from anything else. Valetude (talk) 21:13, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
