Advice

edit

JR Short is very highly notable, and deserves an article here. I encourage you to revise the draft until it reaches an acceptable standard.

  1. Replace the references to WP by links to the appropriate WP articles within the text. How can WP be a reliable source for itself?
  2. remove the minor publications
  3. Look at every sentence devoted to praising him or saying why he is important. His importance is shown by his work, not by what is said here in the article. If "Short’s profound transdisciplinarity will be evident in the Scholarship section." rthen the reader will see it without having been told. Almost all such sentences should be removed entirely.
  4. . Look at all adjectives of praise or importance. Consider whether the entire sentence containing that adjective is necessary. If it is, rewrite it in a more neutral form, without the adjective.
  5. Find book reviews of his work, ones providing substantial coverage from third-party independent reliable sources, such as academic or professional journals, or major newspapers. Use them as references for his books.
  6. Find a reliable source for every statement in the article-- his cv can be used for routine information, but it requires a 3rd party reference for everything in the article which is to any extent a judgment or evaluation or conclusion;
  7. Write all references in the WP:CITE format
  8. Most important of all, make sure thatt none of this is copied or closely paraphrased from any published source/

I think I've lost my Wikipedia article upon uploading it for review by editors. I've been working on it all day! Help me retrieve it if possible.

Draft: John Rennie Short

edit

I hope this is the correct site to submit a partial text that will not be rejected because it is partial. I have incorporated many of recommendations for this text, and I would like to get an evaluation of this text so for. I have been incorporating DGG's Advice, which I greatly appreciate, and will continue to do so, as I precede.

John Rennie Short

John Rennie Short (born 19 October 1951) is a professor of geography and public policy in the School of Public Policy at University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

Early Life and Education

Short was born in Stirling, a city in west central Scotland. He was raised in nearby Tullibody, a village in what was then the County of Clackmannanshire. Short attended the county grammar school, Alloa Academy. He received the MA in geography from Aberdeen University in 1973. His graduate education continued at the University of Bristol, where Short received the PhD in geography for the dissertation, “Residential Mobility in The Private Housing Market of Bristol” (1977). From 1976 to 1978, he maintained a residency in Bristol’s School of Geographical Sciences as Postdoctoral Research Fellow.

Career

In 1978, Short accepted an appointment as lecturer in geography at the University of Reading. From 1985 to 1987, he was Visiting Senior Research Fellow at the Urban Research Unit of the Australian National University. He left Reading in 1990 to join Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Public Affairs and Citizenship as professor of geography. In 2002, Short became Chair of the Department of Geography and Environmental Systems at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). He was appointed to his current position in the School of Public Policy at UMBC in 2005.

Notability

A human geographer, John Rennie Short has authored or co-authored more than 48 books, 100 papers in academic journals, and 42 chapters in edited books as of 2020. His publications have been translated into Chinese, Czech, Japanese, Korean, Persian and Spanish. In the course of his career, Short incorporates human geography’s subfields, including the urban, the political, the environmental, the economic, and the cultural. His scholarship fuses social and cultural theory methodologies, archival research strategies, and data analyses in various combinations. Scopus lists Short’s peer-reviewed citation that represents a range of fields from the “Social Sciences, Earth and Planetary Sciences, Environmental Science, Engineering, Economics, Econometrics and Finance, Arts and Humanities, Business, Management and Accounting, and Energy.”

Short’s scholarship is unconfined by any one disciplinary approach but embraces a multiplicity, including cultural theory, empirical analysis, archival research as well as fieldwork. His Imagined Country: Environment, Culture and Society (1991), for example, enlarges human geography with aesthetics, art history, cartography, environmental studies, social theory, philosophy, political science, and popular culture. Short’s work further displays the multidisciplinary through his devotion not only to the collaboration with and but also to the promotion of young scholars from across a spectrum of expertise. To this end, he has founded several book series, including “Space, Place, and Society,” Syracuse University Press (1995 – 2012); “Critical Introduction to Urbanism and the City, Routledge (Co-founder, 2004 – present); and “Cities,” Edward Elgar Press (2016 – present).


Short has won competitive fellowships from varied institutions such as the Australian National University, the British Academy, the Smithsonian Institution, Yale University’s Beinecke Library, and the Huntington Library. In 2002, he received the Leverhulme Visiting Professorship to Britain, which contributed to ongoing investigation into how globalization acts in and through numerous types of world cities. Throughout the tenure of the Leverhulme Professorship, he was based at the University of Loughborough where he worked with the Globalization and World Cities (GAWC) Research Group. Short consistently receives substantial funding from a variety of sources that reflects the range of his pursuits, including Korea Foundation, National Science Foundation, Environmental Protection Agency, National Geographic Society, among many others.

His dedication to producing readable scholarship is complemented by promoting work beyond an academic audience to an informed general public. In recent years, this popularization has been furthered by means of television and radio interviews, print interviews in national and special newspapers, essays on scholarly/journalistic websites, and republication/citation in a range of outlets such as Associated Press, Business Insider, The Conversation, Market Watch, Newsweek, PBS Newshour, PRI, Salon, Slate, US News and World Report, Washington Post and World Economic Forum.

DGG, I think that 2,5,6,7,8 in my published article are sources to text that no longer exists, but I'm not sure how to delete them.
