Talk:Clare Winger Harris

message: Ms. Harris allegedly quit writing in 1930 to raise her kids?? The youngest was 12 years old! Why didn't she quit when they were toddlers running around the house?
She was simply a writer who lost interest or suffered writer's block. It happens. Sometimes writing no longer important to them.
And merely having strong female characters does not a feminist make. It often means that the writer used her own gender perspective. There is no evidence from this article that Ms. Harris was anything but a writer -- which is an honor by itself. Making her a feminist writer seems mere projection by female chauvinists. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Scott Adler (talk • contribs).
::Several sources say she quit writing in 1930 to raise and educate her kids. I am only reporting what the sources say. As for feminist propaganda, I don't see how the article goes that route. The only mention of feminism is to mention that some feminists have embraced her as a pioneer (again, a referenced statement.--Alabamaboy 23:50, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Feminist Propaganda

message: I see a pattern emerging in your articles, Alabamaboy! I'm glad that someone is working on these early science fiction writers. Perhaps you might consider eventually working on a featured topic such as "Early science fiction writers" or "Early women science fiction writers." It's a lot of work, but I think that these topics can be very helpful to users if done well. I am going to pass this article now because I feel that it meets the definition of GA (it broadly covers the topic), but I do hope that you do more research and expand the section on her writing to include an analysis of her style and her topics (like I suggested for Gertrude Barrows Bennett). Also, if there is any additional information available on her life that you can dig up from anywhere, that would be good (it seems like that might be hard, though - I see you are already reduced to translating). Finally, I would also suggest expanding the lead (per WP:LEAD) and adhering more strictly to the manual of style (WP:MOS), if you decide to go for FA at some point in the future.
