I couldn't help noticing that the current paragraph opening looks identical to a bio on the Charlie Rose site. The Rose page says contents are copyrighted to them, which suggests it didn't originate on wikipedia, but may have been copy/pasted here. Scandalous... Then again, maybe it's fair use (?) and more likely no one cares, but I figured I'd point it out in case anyone wants to address it. --- Replysixty ( talk) 03:09, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
The bibliography states "Gang of Five" was published in 2002. Yet I just watched a C-Span Booknotes archive of Ms. Easton promoting the book, dated September 2000. Eelb53 ( talk) 22:57, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
During the last couple of months, I have been working with and on behalf of Nina Easton to write a new draft of this article. Despite Ms. Easton's high profile and standing as a journalist, the current article is very sparse and lacks key information about her career and publications. The new draft I propose aims to provide a more thorough and detailed account of her career with new sourced information, as well as providing citations for the information currently in the article.
Given my COI, I would appreciate it if other editors could look at this proposed draft and use this to replace the current live article, if it looks ok. Here's the link to the draft in my user space: User:16912_Rhiannon/Nina_Easton
This draft presents a some changes to the structure of the article. The content in my draft is broken down as follows:
There aren't currently any external links that are appropriate (but not already used as citations), so I've removed that section. I've also removed the redlinks that currently appear in the article, since I don't think they're needed, and it doesn't look like articles for The American Banker etc will be created any time soon. I'd also like to note, a photographer has sent an email to the permissions desk regarding a new photo for this article, and I'd like to add the image once everything is in order regarding copyright.
I'd appreciate any productive feedback on the draft, please let me know if you have any thoughts or questions. This page is on my watchlist, if you reply here I'll respond as soon as I can. Thanks, 16912 Rhiannon ( Talk · COI) 18:53, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I have another request for this article: this time to update the photo in the infobox. I mentioned in my request above that a photographer was providing his permission for a photograph of Nina Easton to be used in this article. The photo has now been uploaded, with permission received by OTRS. Here's the link to the photo on Commons: File:Nina_Easton_MPW.png
I believe this photo is higher quality, a better image of Ms. Easton and is also more recent, since it was taken at this year's Fortune "Most Powerful Women" summit. If other editors agree, I'd really appreciate if it could be added into the article. If you have any questions, this page is on my watchlist and I'll reply as soon as I can to any responses here. Thanks, 16912 Rhiannon ( Talk · COI) 19:15, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
We now credit her with "several books", cover three in prose and list the same three. LC catalogs only those three.
Sections 2 Publications and 4 Books carry an unusual pair of headings that are normally alternatives for a list of works (sec 4) and they are unusually separated by 3 Personal life, which contains classic material for section 1.
