I put this up on FAC prematurely. How should I expand the article to give it enough meat ... or is the subject inherently too slight for FAC? --Theo (Talk) 10:45, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

This what Meelar said when I posted this to FAC:

This seems awfully short for a featured article. It also reads a bit like a CV. The section on his books, for example, could conceivably be expanded--was there any political reaction to them, did they bring new questions to light, etc. In short, there's just not enough meat here.

  • Still too short for a FA. His life section is pretty good, but the section on his works needs more info. I pretty much concur with Meelar, sorry I can't give you anymore help. Bratschetalk random 21:30, Apr 17, 2005 (UTC)
I have now expanded the material on his books. Is it appropriate to go into details of the subjects that he covered as a journalist and describe his broadcasting in more detail? --Theo (Talk) 11:44, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I still seek comments on the breadth and depth of this article now that I have addressed all previous comments. --Theo (Talk) 15:54, 6 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
