# Talk:Marco Kartodikromo

The word 'racist' did not exist in 1911. It was invented by Magnus Hirschfeld in the 1930s.--Q-Jux Q-Jux Q-Jux (talk) 12:02, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

The article was not written in 1911. The source says "discrimination based on race" (in Indonesian, naturally), which in modern terms is known as racism. Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:02, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

Well done! --Tea with toast (話) 23:03, 16 June 2012 (UTC)

While I am satisfied that this article meets the criteria for GA, there are few things that might benefit the article moving forward:

The first sentence "Further career..." section: "Kartodikromo was soon chosen by Goenawan...". The word "soon" is ambiguous, and it would be better to put a more precise date on that.
Sadly none of my sources have a date. They have a nearly 2-year gap in which it could have happened.
I feel the "Themes and styles" section could be expanded. Throughout the "Further career..." section, there is not much information given for each of the written works that Kartodikromo authored.  I think it would be good to elaborate on these, especially if they were contributing factors for his imprisonment.
Agree. I'll try and do that when my current project is finished. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:27, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
One of the categories listed is apparently non-existent (red link). While this may not be a problem if the category is to be created in the future, I just thought I'd mention it in case it was a typo (from my investigation, I couldn't find any categories that would replace it, I just thought I'd mention it).
Removed. I seem to remember something about not having redlink categories in the MOS. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:27, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
