I am not the person who nominated this article, but I have done much of the recent editing and I am the person responsible for all the citations to Slotten's biography of Wallace to which you refer. I have read a number of things on Wallace over the years (including the Quammen book), but the Slotten book was the one I had in my hands when I did the editing and it was a very high quality and comprehensive source so I cited it extensively both for new material I added and for material already in the article that lacked explicit citations. Most of this material could have come from a variety of sources, including the several of the references already listed for the article before I added the Slotten book to the list. I notice other editors have recently been using other sources so I expect this will become less of an issue shortly. Though I suspect Slotten's biography will always be prominent in the source list, because I used it to provide citations for so much of the information in the article that lacked explicit citation. I don't see that as much of a problem for a high quality source. I hope this information helps. Rusty Cashman 07:16, 2 April 2007 (UTC) reply
I will convert to using the cite templates when I have a chance. In general I don't know how responsive I will be to comments on this page at this time. It was my plan to obtain other sources (Amazon is shipping me one right now) and make another round of edits before deciding whether to nominate it for FA. Another editor seems to be in the process of making some improvements as well and I question if the article is stable enough to start the FA process. In my opinion the article as it currently stands is rated appropriately. I think it is a GA (which is why I took it through the GA nomination process) but FA would be a reach. If some other editor is willing to take it through the FA process I will be happy to help, but otherwise I am going to wait until both the article and myself are more ready, which probably means at least until after I finish my Taxes which are due April 15th here in the USA :) I will continue to check this page to see if there are more valuable suggestions I can use to improve the article at some point.
